For unison is the country people of Spain at the moment. In my small gesture to honor the products of Spain.
Let me first say to be able to share these products is a great feeling. I love many different aspects of the variety in choice and quality. Below you will see a few brands and interesting items. Look about the pictures and if you have interest in the bold listed items, you are free to PM and we can discuss how we can get the item to you safely. I will expect you to cover the cost of what total shipping is on your end, please.
So there are some after shaves of Myrsol. I hope you enjoy the balsamic or herbal, floral, and tonic notes of Agua Balsamica. I have enjoyed using Metisol for face tonic in warm weather but also when acne leeds to your face feeling oily. It is scented a bit strong but also single note of Thyme. Concluding with Antesol, which is most versatile. Preshave splash, throw some on after your first pass, of finish your shave with it. A tad bit sweet but also simple and a bit deeper. I like the performance and scent of each one very much. These bottles rock. Want to try one or a couple?

I would like to pass forward this brush now to honor Vie Long and my love for this knot and handle. May it now be enjoyed and used by another person who will try another brush. My thoughts on this brush. Vladimir Ferdman did this "6" style handle in dymondwood and I installed the Vie Long Silvertip that I got from a beehive greenish faux horn.
In order to change the knot made lather I lowered the knot. I believe that is originates from the species of Meles meles badger from areas around Asia and European. Sometimes in the market of brushes referred to as Eurasian. While I believe there may be a mild sterilization done to hair like this, I am betting on the side that in the market of badger hair, this is NOT further treated to chemically or visually "bleach" the color of the hair.
I would still call this silvertip badger, but regardless of it's named or branded grade, this hair in light as well as wet does exhibit silver shimmering tips. The hairs definitive colors to my eye are white at top, yellow at shaft, brown (darkest band), maybe some tan around handle.
There is softness at the tips even though the tips are closest or mostly spiked in it's formed tips. They don't really have much curling but may tips are tapered. This hair knot shape is pointed once wet. It forms into a tightened base and the bloom is then sucked in. It's shape seems to encourage easy loading on any product. The original shape of the knot was I think changed at 2 spots when I lowered it deeper in this handle.
I think it squeezed the lower outside loft and brought it the bloom width. This may change the outside canopy shape but moreso makes the very inside feel "flatter" at the face of the knot.
The density was originally helping the flow through already as this hair is a medium to slightly wider thickness type badger hair. So when I lowered the loft an addition 3 or 4mm, it then had the diameter of the handle at the diameter of 24.7mm across the knot.
Loft is 47.3mm. The shape of it's face is slightly flat but maintains a mild curve. The a bit points directly and is going to contact your skin in a small. It will stay, then after some additional pressure from the handle, it then has a subtle bend and then movement or lean to it's density. It is still not a dense knot but you can get some great pick up, application and coat of your lather. This has presence on the face, even with the the fold and bending of it's shape in hair to paint your face. It will release out the sides of the knot on the canopy.
It is naturally soft and and likely to give scrub to some skin deemed "sensitive" but could still be appropriate if used accordingly. If you don't like scrub, load well and use deep painting strokes while hydrating the lather on your skin. It will provide real contact with the skin to gently exfoliate.
