Hi all,

I was just wondering the above really. Which products would you always have in your rotation? When they are used up, which would you buy again?

So far in my limited de shaving experience is Boots Cool cologne and their shaving stick. I absolutely love these and when they are done, I'll spend the other £2.50 or so to buy them both again!

I'd be Interested in what your products are.

Are we talking hardware or software? For me:

Hardware:
Feather AS razor
Merkur Futur razor
Feather blades
Super Iridium blades (while stocks last!)
New Forest 2201 brush

Software:
Truefitt and Hill Ultimate Comfort cream
Truefitt and Hill Ultimate Comfort ASB
Acca Kappa 1869 cream
Acca Kappa 1869 post-shave gel
Acca Kappa 1869 cologne
Pecksniffs Citrus ASB
Pecksniffs Citrus cologne
Palmolive soap stick
Gucci by Gucci cologne

And probably a few more that I haven't discovered yet!


Regards

Ian
 
YSL Kouros cologne
D R Harris Almond shaving soap
Czech & Speake #88 cologne

Anything else is very easily replaceable.

You guys are making me want to try new things!

Yes, that's what happens. You'll be going along, quite happy with your Boots cream and your Boots stick, and then somebody like me will say "I think that Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap will always be in my rotation", and that get's you thinking "ooo, that might be worth a try".

You are atop a slippery slope, young man.

Palmolive soap and the way I feel about it at the moment Ingram cream, to be fair though I've only recently started using it so the novelty may wear off.
 
Palmolive stick - performance, price and availability means that I'm always likely to restock this.
Aqua Velva AS - more difficult to get for us over here, but again performance/price means I'll try and get some more when it runs out, although it shouldn't be for a while yet.
Proraso/Omega shave cream - great cream at a relatively low price.
 
Yikes! This is hard, like choosing your favourite child :eek:

Mitchell's Woolfat Soap
Tabac soap/stick & AS
Irisch Moos stick & AS
Nanny's Citrus Zinger (goes very well with Cella Colonia Classica)
Proraso Soap & AS
Speick AS
Italian Floïd Blue AS
Indian (or vintage) Old Spice

Honourable mentions for:

P.160 tipo morbido
Godrej Shaving Round
Wilkinson Sword Stick
European Palmolive Stick
Speick Stick & ASB
Aqua Velva Ice Blue (if I hadn't tried the Floïd, this would be in the top set)

Things I won't replace when they're out:

Aqua Velva Musk :lol:
Australian Palmolive/Mennen Stick (you think Arko smells like urinal blocks, cut this off in 1" lengths and it looks like it too)



There may be other goldies lurking in my stash that I've not tried yet... bound to be some in the 14kg of untested soap pile :lol:
 
Tabac shaving soap
MWF
Body Shop Macca Root shaving cream
GFT Coconut oil Shaving cream
Nivea Replenishing ASB
L'occitaine Cade ASB
Ogallala bay rum (probably) :)

regards, beejay
