  Master Soap Creations
Posted by: ischiapp - 07-16-2023, 03:04 PM - Forum: Shave Soaps & Creams - Replies (2)

Just seen the Master Soap Creations news.
... and the new formulas.


This is on The Razor Company website.
Quote:Shave Soap 170g
Steric Acid, Aqua, Tallow, Castor Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Fragrance/Essential Oils, Sodium Hydroxide, Cocoa butter, Bentonite Clay, Kaolin Clay, Avocado Oil, Glycerine, Sodium lactate, Xantham Gum, Dpanthenol Baobab Root, Marshmallow root, Thussah Silk.

Aftershave Toner 100ml
Hamamelis Virginia (Witch Hazel), Rosa Damascena (Rose Water), Aloe Vera, Glycerine, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Essential Oils, Fragrance Oils, Hyaluronic Acid.

So to change, I can't find about DLC Yaqi.
It'd be close, but It's chepaer so I don't think can be equal.

The combo in South Africa sells about €17. (€21 TRC)
Very, very, I mean veeeeeeery tempted!!!

Please someone can share the actual INCI of DLC Yaqi?
Even better if both, soap and toner.

  Boar Brush Question
Posted by: poppi - 07-08-2023, 08:11 PM - Forum: Shave Brushes - Replies (6)

I have never really had exposure to boar brushes but would like to get 1 or 2 to give them a try.  I have looked at various vendors and other online sites.  I realize they are nothing like badger/synthetics and have a break in period.   There is a plethora of brushes available for sure. 

But where do I even start?  Omega? Semouge? Jaguar? Mondial?  Confused for sure.

Any tips/info would be greatly appreciated.

  Shovelhead Question
Posted by: poppi - 06-25-2023, 09:28 PM - Forum: GEM - Replies (7)

How are these different than other 1912's or are they?  I know the loading drill is different but how, or does it, change the way the razor works/shaves?

Inquiring minds want to know

Thanks in advance

  Dove Men+Care Hand, Body, Shave Bar
Posted by: Jayaruh - 06-17-2023, 06:24 PM - Forum: Shave Soaps & Creams - No Replies

I got a new soap a while back and noticed that it said Shaving Bar on it. Dove Men+Care Hand, Body, and Shave Bar. I had intended to try it out sometime. Yesterday, my son, David, came up to have early Fathers Day celebration. He brought me  a shaving bowl that he printed on his new 3D printer. It is one that was designed by Roger Quintero. I decided it was a good time to try out the bar soap. Here is the video.



Today, I used the soap in my Saturday shave. It did OK, but it will not be in my rotation. It would do as a travel bar you could use to shower and shave with. So, now I know. The bowl is cool, but it will end up as a container to hold shave stuff.

  Proraso Mojito
Posted by: ischiapp - 06-14-2023, 09:13 PM - Forum: Shave Soaps & Creams - No Replies

I love mojitos in the summer.
So I "created" a product line.
As always, an easy DIY.


I mixed it with two Proraso lines:
• Bianco Anti Irritazione
• Verde Rinfrescante e Tonificante

These are the doses.
• Frankenpre 1:1
Pre Beard Cream White / Green
• Frankensoap 1:1
Shaving Soap White / Green
• Frankenafter 1:1:1
Aftershave Lotion Green / Aftershave Cream White / Aftershave Cream Green

Enjoy!!!
