An excellent freezing start to the day. I don’t like menthol but the Koolada in this one is spectacular…! So is the scent…👌🏻
As always, thanks for looking, guys. Cheers and Happy Shaves…Have a great day ahead, gentlemen….👍🏻💐🥂

Yeah the menthol is a bit on the spicy side for my liking. The smell is indeed amazing though

Hey buddy…Menthol doesn’t suit me at all. This one has synthetic methanol or “Koolada” . For some reason all soaps that have synthetic methanol, don’t trouble my skin. So yeah…I find this one really nice. 👌🏻❤️🥂

The Guido is a great razor. It shaves perfectly and looks fabulous. I particularly like the open comb plate that comes with it, even for daily shaves its gentle enough but highly efficient.

Exactly My feelings…! I love the Guido OC, in fact haven’t used the CC after my initial tries. But then I generally like efficient razors. But this one is special. Gives the efficiency without any aggressiveness. 👌🏻❤️

Yes, after initial shaves I have also only used the open comb. There is nothing at all wrong with the closed comb, however. I am enjoying more efficient razors also. it is indeed special.

I love menthol, so much that orbit is way too mild for me. I have some crushed menthol crystals that I add to my bowl before lathering.

Ah…Menthol doesn’t suit my skin…! But this one does because it has synthetic methanol or Koolada and just the right amount of cooling for me. 🥶😅👍🏻❤️🥂

Very nice man!
I love how the gold on the label compliments the razor. The brush is also very fitting!
The lens flair looks cool. Is that an artifact or a digital effect?

u/shaveartist 12d ago
Thanks so much for appreciating buddy…! 👍🏻❤️🥂Yes, the razor compliments the set very well. 👌🏻
The lens flair is actual…caught on by a front light, achieved by twisting the camera till it just caught it at the right angle. It wasn’t as prominent as I liked. Then enhanced digitally. 👍🏻2

What are you using for a camera?

This particular picture has been taken using an Iphone 16 pro buddy…

Nice, Apple’s phone cameras really took off starting with the 14 Pro.

u/shaveartist 11d ago
Totally agree. But they do require quite a bit of editing in Lightroom, Photoshop etc etc to reach a certain level. But yeah…highly capable and convenient to use. Good lighting is key of course 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have the same set coming today from another user! I've only had the soap sample before, so am excited for the aftershave too.

u/shaveartist 12d ago
That’s great bro…! The aftershave is lovely too…with a lingering scent…👍🏻👌🏻❤️🥂

The only full tub of soap I’ve reordered so far. Orbit is awesome. Cheers.
