Sorry to see that. I went to his site and saw it was down.Yup.
Closed up shop a few months back which sucks as the soaps and splashes are excellent!

Mixed bag today. Now that it’s been a couple weeks, I think I have my technique with the slim dialed in to get an easy, very close shave.
Somewhat frustrating is the PdP really dried my face out. I sort of noticed that before and didn’t think much of it, but today it was uncomfortable. It has been very cold and dry the past few days, and that may have contributed. Aside from MWF, if anyone has suggestions for soaps that are more nourishing / hydrating, I’d love to hear it.
Got a sample of the Summer Storm as a possibility for a summer aftershave, and I kinda like it. Ozone, oily asphalt, and petrichor. It keeps confusing my nose, so that’s neat.
So 9/10 for shave quality, 6/10 for overall experience.
