SOTD : Saturday 13th February to Friday 19th February 2021


Superdrug own brand aftershaves are very good for the price
Brut aftershave comes in several nice scents too
Lynx DarkTemptation is another that does an excellent job , and the scent is divine and long lasting
All can be had for around £3 -£4 for 100ml + bottles

Imagine, all the money you will save on aftershaves, you can spend on expensive razors, exotic looking brushes and artisan soaps with groovy artwork on the labels !

Jump in . . . . .The water is lovely !
 
Thanks @Digimonkey and @Paul L ! I'll be sure to take a look at those, probably will end up ordering some samples from shaveDash then and pay a visit to superdrug next time I'm out shopping!

Yeah... I really should stop spending time reading soap reviews... already eyeing next soaps (and matching post shave lotions/splashes/balms) - A&E Spartacus, B&M Terror, PB Spitfire... List is long enough for what I'll want to try! and I just keep adding on... such a big world to explore!

Very lovely I'd say!

Shaving planetary alignment this morning. The soap has taken on a centrifugal force of its own during brush loading, however. Clearly, it’s become unmoored from the bottom of the vessel; so it’s the ceramic pot once replacement is necessary (in a decade or so).

Stay safe, everyone.

 
Thank you

Three lovely bits of kit there. I've just ordered some of the Castle Forbes as lime is probably my favourite scent, and I hear excellent reports of their cream. It's expensive but sounds like an excellent performer. As for the Rocca, a birch handled version is on my radar, although I suspect it may have too much blade feel for me. Great shave!
