Grooming and Hygiene

Well. Great minds do think alike. So the little blue thing on the right is a sample pouch of liquid soap? That's pretty cool. Probably safer to pack with the jeans than one of the bottles, not to mention lighter and cheaper. I guess that one little sachet like that is easily enough to give a pair of jeans a good wash. Might be even enough for a double wash. Two thirds of the contents for the first wash. Then rinse, then wash again with one third of contents. Rinse again. Dry.
I haven't tried their liquid products yet but the bar soap is really nice. For body and hair the lather is really very nice. For shaving, as I said, it is not ideal but gets the job done. Try it out and let us know what you think.
Just for fun, an Indian friend of mine swears by Irish Spring soap. Super classic product. Not really bio-anything. He left me two bars. I actually really like it. It is a deodorant soap and it clearly works for killing any sweat smell one might have. Smells good, too.
Otherwise, a fine sandalwood soap is something very luxurious.

Doc Bronner's are available practically every 5-feet in Oakland. I've got Whole Foods, Piedmont Grocery, and several health food stores all walkable from my home – and they all stock Doc Bronner's. But believe it or not, it's also available very cheap from amazon.com. I'm an Amazon Prime member (1 day shipping for $2) so it pays for itself with heavy items like Doc Bronner.

Well, it's true, I am a bit accident-prone… At least trashing a few bottles of liquid soap won't be as expensive as last time I trashed the car (and then a few days later G's laptop). Just gotta keep well away from G's new Aero jacket...!
Have Dr B travel sizes in peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, almond, baby (unscented), lavender - from memory that's probably about it.
All, let me know what you want to sample and it will be sorted!

wow- Beatle makes a switch from peppermint to eucalyptus - still have some p and a new smell would be cool

Mrs. G, could I possibly sample the Eucalyptus? Thanks!
-
Yes, indeed - eucalyptus samples set aside for Beats and LC. First one I've tried is almond, it's lovely - just like marzipan.

For all of you guys that enjoy/use Dr. Bronner's products there is a documentary "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox". Check it out, educate yourself.
Highly recommended.
