Witch hazel
Biocura vibrant green, vdh balsem

The arko is grated in a container. I don't mind the smell if I shave under the shower. The performance is ok. I promised myself that I should finish all the products that I buy.

I broke the promise once with the Wilkinson shaving soap. That product is unusable. I reused the container to put in a grated Wilkinson stick.

@Snuff and @The King thanks for the compliment. But I'm not sure if I deserve it. I have not said anything about the timeframe. Probably the @The King is more honest and admits that he will not finish it and releases it to fellow shavers to enjoy it.

I don't think the second hand market for a used arko shaving stick is that big.

There are lovers of the Arko stick and rightly a great soap but I think the smell is not for everyone love at first sight, so sell???????? :uhoh :kaputtlachen1

By the way, I totally agree with that Wilkinson in the blue bowl that should be banned immediately for health reasons.:yes_nicken

Brush and soap:
Jerusalem Harkos® Fibre and Stirling Varen:
With the autumn weather outside, wet fern indoors was appropriate, so with the Jeruzalem Harkos® Fibre beautifully a Stirling Varen foam beaten. Wet grass, forest edge and that American strength. Stirling is consistent in the shaving quality of its soaps, so that was good this morning.
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (China) for the 6th x used.
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (China) did a 6th turn with some attention, but that was it. The beard was still reasonable, but the back of the head was not entirely shaved. The Fatip Piccolo Special Edition (OC) is not an issue, because it shaves well with everything you put in it, so exit Gillette Nacet Stainless (China).
Result: BBS.
Finally: Some freshness of the Harkos© Citrus-Mint, then Stirling Varen ASB, which is very sparse, because you soon have a layer on the skin, which does retract, but very slowly. Very frugal in use and still a nice scent firming the smell of edge of the forest. An extra touch of fougere from the Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio and it is complete again.
