Loving all of the incoming mail people!!

Had one package show up today from Tallow + Steel:
 
Got this a couple of days ago but just now getting around to posting. My shipment from Stirling! Got a sample shampoo bar too. The boar is soaking & drying & I'm getting it broken in. I've used the synthetic brush & I really like it. I'm also learning to face lather & like that a lot too!

Face lathering is the bees-knees! Don’t let these bowl folks tell you otherwise.

Great mail call!
 
It's going to torment me actually because my two favorite scents from SS are in there and I already know the soap doesn't perform well for me....

Chris (CBLindsey) sent me a Persona prep razor to try as a pif, & included some soaps for me as well! Thank you sir, looking forward to trying them! Is the CBL Earl Grey your own recipe?

yes the earl grey is my own creation. That Stirling is a fantastic performer and smells fantastic...but it made my face burn. If you try that one and think you feel an odd tingle you might want to put that in the to be PIFD pile. The Myrkvior is a really odd scent but it truly is one of my favorites. The soap on the other hand is just a mediocre performer for me. I understand LA Soap is using a different formula now, the new stuff might be better. I really like the scent though, as strange as it is it is in one I had a hard time letting go of it.

I hope those soaps add some variety and quality to your burgeoning soap collection.
 
You guys are getting me anxious.... I have 2 boxes due on Monday. I can’t wait!

dont be surprised if that boar sheds like nobody’s business for the first 6-7 uses mine did but it has quit now and is one of my favorite brushes!
