Ginseng Miracle Wonder 8 Oil Hair & Body Mist. Please keep it close to the vest. Once you guys try it the price is going to skyrocket.
I do think the key is to use 2 drops as reccomended by the store personel. I won't live this one down listening to them. heh heh.
I've suffered no build up on my brushes using only a few drops. In years past I did when I used a liberal glistening amount. I only use enough to push my beard up and give the mug a good massage prior to a good lather with bristles covered with cream.
My 2 cents.

I do think it probides benefit to dry and sensitive faces. Noxema and proraso seems to soften beards to over cooked noodle status. This is good for wire beards. I do like most pre shaves. But then again my face tends to dry in the weather and following the too hot water that I use. Perhaps boiling hot water is not optimal on da face. Hmm/

Smother that that 1st application with a hot towel. Then a light application of oil again followed by lather....:y
That's pretty much what Truffit and Hill does in Las Vegas. They went through many towels and many applications of their citrus oil during my shave there last summer. MikeB
