EDF Wet Shaving Thread
I started wet shaving around 6 months ago as a result of my general unhappiness with my shaving routine and an OOT thread. I'm really enjoying everything about it - the quality of the shave, the lack of ingrown hairs, the morning routine, etc. I'm also one of those guys who enjoys skin products, etc, so having a whole new category of stuff to shop for and buy is right up my alley.
Things I have: Art of Shaving shaving brush $50 from the Art of Shaving Merkur Long Classic Safety Razor $29.99 from Classic Shaving Ceramic Razor and Brush Stand $39.99 from Classic Shaving Brush, razor, stand. All pretty standard. The fun part, of course, are the products. I was able to get a package of stuff from Art of Shaving for super-cheap from Costco. This is it: It comes with a brush, shaving cream, pre-shave oil, and an after-shave balm. All of the products are excellent imo. Art of Shaving charges $100 for it, though, I doubt I'd use it much if I wasn't able to get it for $40 from Costco. I haven't branched out all that far from that stuff, but two things I've tried and liked are: Truefitt & Hill Pre-Shave Oil $28 from Truefitt & Hill and Truefitt & Hill Ultimate Comfort Shaving Cream $28 from Truefitt & Hill Finally, I recently bought some products from the American men's grooming maker Jack Black. I'm not posting all that crap because I don't like it very much, especially the shaving cream. It's not as good as Art of Shaving and can't even touch Truefitt & Hill, which is the best I've used. So there you have my wet shaving treatise. I'd like to know what other products people like and use, especially in the after-shave balm and moisturizer categories. I have very sensitive skin so I can't deal with stuff with too much alcohol in it. Finding good moisturizer is hard. |
