    Default Ed's Witch Hazel is real good !!

    Yep, I just put it in an old barber's bottle and now use it everyday.
    Never used this before, so still wondering in what order to put it on,
    ie, before putting on skin moisturiser ?....It seems to replace the
    need for that, but what do I know ?

    Leaves my face feeling less fugly

    Thanks Ed !!

    Default Ed's Witch Hazel ??????

    That looks like a plastic tea bottle, re-labeled with a C.N. Dickinson, that finally found a home in a salad dressing bottle,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Witch hazel is primarily a skin toner and a mild antiseptic, so I apply it before anything else,
    let it dry, and then apply whatever else, such as a moisturizer, balm, or aftershave lotion.

    I just hope Ed's feelings are not hurt after all that work he did to create a custom leak proof travel bottle for you.
    Ed is a sensitive guy you know.

    I do like the bottles and would definitely incorporate them into my shave den if I came across them.

    I almost choked on my lunch when I saw that picture!
    Just more pieces of history to be preserved.

    Hi Mick,
    The Colavita 250ml Olive Oil bottle is an interesting alternative to the Holbrooks.
    I will post some "Olden Days" labels in the next few days.
