Not shaving much as I'm growing a beard, but when I did I was a big fan of Speick, Proraso, C.O. Bigelow, Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood, and Tabac with my cheapo Tweezerman Badger Brush and vintage Gillette Super Speed double edge safety razor followed by Nivea post shave balm.
I've bought four jars of the Zirh in the six months since Max did a video on it (or was it a blog post?). Its great, quality moisturizer and if you guys can find for $30 or so on amazon or Ebay, consider it a steal. I have to try the La Mer just so I know what $300 moisturizer is like.
Looking forward to the spring so I can shave off this beard… ^_^ You number one sounds awesome… Where would someone look to pick up something from them???
Catie's Bubbles is awesome! One of the best artisan soap makers out there. Le Terre Verte is one of my favorites along with Tonsorial Parlour (a soap you can find on italian barber). Le Piment de la vie is the most popular one. The owner is a great guy!
Great list Max. You should also check out Le Piment de la Vie from Cattie's Bubbles. Smells a lot like Potion by DSquared2 & the performance is simply fantastic!

Love the "grooming series" vids

Thanks for the list, Max!! Gotta check out the face tonic. Ursa Major makes a lot of quality stuff it seems

Will try out the drenched cream. Also what kind of good quality face cleanser do you recommend? Something good for the skin and pleasant texture etc.
