When one can of Barbasol isn't enough.

Well it started with an impulse buy of some Barbasol original. I used it, I loved it, I kept using it.

Went back to the store today, a few weeks later, and saw the Barbasol Pacific Rush aftershave splash. I sniffed it, I liked it, I decided to buy it. Then I noticed they make Pacific Rush shave creme too.....so I said well heck, might as well get that too and I can use them both together.

BUT THEN I thought, "hmmm $1.09 each can......might as well try them all" but it didn't stop there....oh no.....because there was just one Barbasol item left that I didn't have in my hands...the Brisk aftershave.

So naturally I had to grab that. I mean, you can't buy every Barbasol item but one.​

Where did you find all of it?
At Woodmans. It's a giant grocery store in Northern Illinois and Wisconsin
You are missing the yellow can with lanolin in it. It's by far the best one!
NOOOOOO!!!!! Now I will not rest until I've bought that can!
How long did it take to go through the first can?
I'm still using it, it's about halfway done, I bought it on 7/22. I haven't used it for every shave, but most of them.

I had no idea you could get addicted to canned foam. I would say welcome to the addiction, but I don't share that particular part of the wet shaving addiction. I really dislike the stuff, but I am addicted to silvertip. I wonder if you could apply Barbasol with a silvertip brush?
 
Wow!! That's a lot of Barbasol! I haven't used any Barbasol shave cream in years, but I did just pick up some the Pacific Rush AS. I Love it!!
 
Haha! Barbasol was my shave cream for many years before I made the wet shave move in April. Not bad stuff, but the creams and soaps I found since are amazing....especially face lathering! I'll never go back.
 
Wow...well done!

I've been using the canned stuff for about the last six months now. Gels and foams. I'm about to finish a can of foamy lemon-lime.
 
Nice, Jason! I enjoy the Pacific Rush AS. It's SWMBO's favorite out of my arsenal.


+1. My wife also thinks Aqua Velva is awesome. Nice to be married to a girl who appreciates the finer things in life. Especially when those things cost less than 2 bucks.

WOW What a haul!! I wish i could get this stuff in the UK :(
 
I just can't go back! That was my foam, can after can, for decades. I just can't go back. It'll take forever to use the two cans of foam I still have left, La Toja (Waaayyyy better than the original Barbasol!) and Colgate (It was on sale just before I bought my first puck of Surrey shaving soap and gave up canned foam years ago.). Maybe I should go on a canned foam blitz to get rid of the stuff, but I just can't go back!
