I've always kept an eye out but never really seen much, is there much shaving goodies to be had around Alvor?
You're going to need a bigger bag for the return journey!I've not really taken notice before as I've just got suckered into this rabbit hole. I'll update this thread when I return
Where there is a will, there is a way Shaun.Well it's not looking great, going on Weds & spoke to a chap in the resort who says nothing available. Surely, got to be something. Well I'll soon find out.

I am sure you will find a way to escape from SWMBO for an hour or two while she is sunbathing.
PS. I usually find lacing my SWMBO with afternoon cocktails works a treat. YMMV
Any way mate have a safe journey and a fantastic time.
Onwards and upwards my friend.

My answer to that is, take less clothes with you. I.E 1 pair of shorts, sandals and a tea shirt. Buy all new clothing out there and use your suitcase as your shaving den.Thank you kind sir, I'm still undecided on what shaving kit to take with me. I'm getting great shaves with the Gillette Tech, might have to look for a fat Handle one to add to the den.
If you go to Porto you need to visit a store called "Balada da Sorte". A must visit for sure. Semogue brushes galore and Portuguese creams available for sure.
When I was in Porto I bought a tube of Antiga Barbearia de Bairro shaving cream and bottle of aftershave. Both are excellent.This is a great thread. I'll be in Lisbon and Porto later this month and now I know what to get and where to get it. Thanks chaps.
