Today’s shave with the Ethos Mysore Sandalwood Skin Food Splash. I can’t say enough about the splash in general. It’s a terrific product: one of the best post-shaves on the market. The Mysore Sandalwood smells amazing. This is by far my favorite sandalwood scent to date.[Image: 5208e93428c788fe246d97123d10a4a2.jpg]

Thx for the bounce backs.

I have all versions less the Lavender.

Hand lathering! Duh, why didn't I think of that - going to execute that method tonight.

Actually that is quite enjoyable - always get my lather dialed in just right doing that.

Thx boys

Great lather today with the 50 year-old badger brush.
Here's my process:

A very small amount of soap and relatively little H2O creates oodles of fantastic lather. The shave was outstanding and, of course, the scent is very pleasing.

And the fact that there are so many air bubbles in the foam .... Do you think this is normal?

Thank is some good looking gear there Nick! Glad you like the Mysore Santal! It happens to be my personal favorite scent as well. An what’s sad is that Mysore was so easy to get back in the early 70’s! Now it’s like liquid gold and extremely hard to get as you have to go through the Indian Government to get the real Mysore. There are. Lot of scammers out there saying they have it when it’s actually another type of Sandalwood.

Great shaves my friend!

Great vintage brush and now and then you just gotta pull out the Vintage Gillette Tech with a brand new sharp blade in it for a nice daily shave.
Nice case on that Tech to.

That picture is immediately after squeezing the lather out of the knot. Some bubbles are to be expected, but you can clearly see in the final picture, the bubbles have disappeared and all that remains is a dense, smooth and shiny lather.

I don't even think about doing anything bad. I'm just confused to figure it out. Unfortunately, there is no website yet I can not buy. There may be problems at customs. And 6 oz is too much for me ...

Concurred. Lavender requires a little more water, added slowly of course. being the thirstiest of the Ethos in my experience..
