No AD here for balms (happy with Nivea), or splashes (I stick to WH).
I was gifted some Ethos. Truly an incredible soap. Smell: wonderful. Performance: even better. Actually the only soap I've tried besides Arko that I'd spend money on. Maybe Sterling?I found my go to soap brand Ethos, so I’m not buying soaps like I used to. And aftershave, I discovered my favorite quite some time ago, so I don’t go after many new scents. But razors & brushes? That’s another story!
The Ethos is certainly at the top of my list. I'm glad you have been able to try some.I was gifted some Ethos. Truly an incredible soap. Smell: wonderful. Performance: even better. Actually the only soap I've tried besides Arko that I'd spend money on. Maybe Sterling?
Round these parts, seven or eight razors may not be considered a "disorder" or even a "collection," but nobody in my personal circle of family and friends has more than one or two permanent (not disposable) razors, so I reckon it's all relative. I could say the same about bowls, brushes, soaps or creams....strangely I do not have the same acquisition disorder when it comes to razors...(I have 7 or 8 total)...
OMG! You're right. If I look at it that way, the money I save shaving myself every day instead of going to a barber is incalculable!OMG! Thank you! I never looked at it that way. I retired over 21 years ago and haven't been in a barbershop since. I just did the math and $10 (plus tip) every 2 weeks over the last 21 years easily covers what I've spent on shaving gear. It still doesn't fully justify it, but that won't stop me from using it in my defense if it ever comes up in conversation
Yes, but definitely finally maybe stopped after my fifth.Says the man who posted the thread my fourth and final 7 day set
I'll still watch for the my sixth and final 7 day set threadYes, but definitely finally maybe stopped after my fifth.
But you are cheap so would you really pay for it when you can get your Arko for $1I was gifted some Ethos. Truly an incredible soap. Smell: wonderful. Performance: even better. Actually the only soap I've tried besides Arko that I'd spend money on. Maybe Sterling?
You sound like me regularly telling my wife that I “definitely finally maybe stopped” buying soaps, brushes, blades, AS...Yes, but definitely finally maybe stopped after my fifth.
So you have basically every AD except brushes?The only 4 ADs that I have are blades, soaps, tech razors and custom scented ASBs. Everything else I don’t really have an interest in
