• GETTING CLEAN WITH BUSHII 🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼 I • GETTING CLEAN WITH BUSHII

🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼🧼

I have these 4 lovely bars from the folks of @bushii_grooming

• Citrus Cedar Smash
• Midnight Refresh
• Bergamot Drift
• And the unscented Oatmeal scrub

I am going with the Citrus Cedar Smash.

These are olive oil, castor oil, shea butter and jojoba oil based soap bars. And made in Canada.

The bar has a discreet scent, produces a lovely lather and feels great.

My hands feel clean and refreshed and even somewhat moisturized.

I would say that this is - Approved!

There you have it

Cheers

• RADIO RETALIATION ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ Thiev • RADIO RETALIATION

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Thievery Corporation has been going through a most welcomed vinyl re-issue process.  Back in the early 90s and early 2000, I don’t think any of their albums were even releases on vinyl.

I have gotten their music on CD as it was released back in the day.

The Thieves have been making these vinyl releases at regular interval and usually start with a coloured special edition then a regular black vinyl.

For this re-issue I missed the colour vinyls but was thrilled to be able to get my hands on this black classic release from the good folks of @le180g in Montreal.

As an album, Radio Retaliation sits in a different place as @thievercorporation explored new avenues by not just offering us some amazing chill vibes, but also a message.

The title “Radio Retaliation” pretty much says it all.  

The sum of the album plays out cohesively, sort of like going through different room in a house party.  Different vibes, different moods, but always on theme.  Every song feels like it belongs and has its place.

Being a big fan of Loulou and that smoky aura, this album took me a few plays back in the day.  That said, Radio Retaliation certainly has earned its place on my turntable and I am thrilled to have a copy.

• Getting my hand on some old money ■■■■■■■■■■■■■ • Getting my hand on some old money

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

In this one I am unboxing the all-new house brand for the @oldmoneyhairco barbershop

Kudos to OLD MONEY for having the vision and for making this happen.

I personally love the overall vibe of the brand and I love seeing Canadians rocking it!

I am further excited about this because it was brought to life by none other than @hillsidegroom.co which I rep here on the social media platform.

So, here we go, first up is the beard care products, an oil and a butter

Then we move onto the hair styling collection which has 3 options:

• A Structure Cream
• A Texture Paste
• And a Styling wax – sadly the jar got damaged on it ride over.  I wounder how?

Last but not least is a signature aftershave splash.

Note that all of these products have their very own signature scent which I will gradually feature as I try them out.

Knowing the Hillside craftmanship, this is going to be nothing short of “Top Shelf” worthy.

So there you have it

Cheers.

• IN THE SHAVE ROOM WITH THE NATU RAZOR ■■■■■■■■■ • IN THE SHAVE ROOM WITH THE NATU RAZOR

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

So, you guys might have caught my earlier unboxing of the Natu Razor.

@natushave

in this one we are doing the shave.

The Natu razor has a number of features that will get it short listed for your next shave

It’s a single edge razor that uses 1 half of the standard double edge blade that you can find anywhere

It has a pivoting head to follow the contours of your face or whatever you are shaving

The blade is secured in place by magnet and magnets are also used to manage the pivoting movement

So shave wise – how is it?!

The short answer is – awesome! 

Although it appears as a gentle razor with limited blade exposure, it did a fabulous job at cleaning up a few days worth of growth.  Very efficient and incredibly comfortable on the skin. 

It takes no time to get use to the angles and movement.

It feels great in the hand, is well balanced and has good weight and presence

Rinsing is a breeze with all of the debris clearing out under hot water

Overall, this is a razor that will appeal to a very wide audience.  Newbie will be feal confident.  Pros will love the design and craftmanship and ladies might find a serious alternative to their cartridge razors.

There is a new brand in the men's grooming world: OLD MONEY!

This is the "House" signature range for the @oldmoneyhairco Barbershop.

The collection:

• Beard Butter
• Beard Oil
• After Shave Splash

■■■ SPOILER ALERT ■■■

The fragrance of the aftershave hits as classy as the Old Money itself with notes of vanilla, whiskey and a hint of cigar.

It's making me feel rather lucky!

• The power of positivity (Magnets at work) ■■■■■ • The power of positivity (Magnets at work)

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

It goes without saying that I love trying new instruments

Here I am unboxing the NATU RAZOR by @natushave

I was interested in this one for it’s very inviting design, but it also has a number of unexpected features

Here we go, Simple packaging, but great vibe

This is a full metal construction in a gold finish

The key feature is the pivoting head which will follow the contour of your face.

You will also notice that this is a single blade safety razor.

It uses 1 half of the standard readily available double edge blade.  So no need for a speciality blade.   The razor also comes with a set of Derby’s.

The loading mechanism is quite slick as the head pivots to open.

Inside you will find magnets to hold the blade in place as well as to secure the closing of the head.

There are little notches on both sides to guide the blade in the correct location.

Using magnets all the way – another novel concept is that the pivoting head is not support by a spring, but rather by opposing magnets.  Brillant!  Less things that can break.

In so many words, a very interesting single edge safety razor that I can’t wait to try out.

• OVERKILL?! ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ To everybody but w • OVERKILL?!

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

To everybody but wet shavers, shaving with this many products looks like overkill.

As a wet shaver, you know that everything here has a purpose.  Each product elevates the shave experience to something touching perfection.

• The pre-shave to prep the skin and raise the hairs.
• The cream to insulate, protect and offer some glide.
• The splash to clean and disinfect the skin.
• The lotion to repair and moisturize your mug.

The green collection (eucalyptus) is a true original with a refreshing and energizing personna. I had almost forgotten just how special it is.

What I like about the PRORASO collection is that it makes that experience affordable for everyone.

In Ottawa, I shop @botteganicastro  for PRORASO goods.
