The Cella Sample SOTD

I'm continuing to work through the samples. 3 soaps/creams left! Of all the samples I got recently, this is one of a couple I was most looking forward to. This is because of my experience with Proraso. Cella is also...

SOTD – Sampling the Samples

Even almost a full year in to this experience, I'm still learning. Not only is the experimentation and learning about what products work for me, it's also about developing skills to help ensure the best shave possible. I'm working through...

The SOTD – What a Dorco!

I'm continuing to work through blades in my collection, and this time, it's the Dorco Platinum HQ Red. Dorco is an interesting story in the shaving world. Or at least I find it interesting. It's a South Korea-based company that...

The Saturday Proraso Shave of the Day

You'll recall that a couple of weeks ago, I tried out the Bic Chrome Platinum blades that I'd had in inventory since last September. I'd seen them posted in the Wicked Edge subreddit a few times (certainly less than some...
