I was browsing the Singles Day sales at aliexpress for cheap shaving items after adding a Yaqi brush to the shopping cart..... found a "cologne" scented shaving soap for $5 and thought it would be a bit of a chuckle to throw it in the cart too. My son thinks it looks cool and approved the purchase :)

Anyway, plenty of cheap lather bowls, Ming Shi razors, no name blades and other junky knick-knacks if like me you're up for a punt! Here's another couple of cheap goodies:

Anybody else wasted any money on these 11/11 sales this weekend?
 
Picked up an ivory coloured brush handle for a 22mm badger knot i have and a couple of wooden lathering bowls with ridges on the bottom.

Browsed a lot but didn't find much else that interested me.
 
It could take a while to arrive but will certainly do a review and some lather (suds) shots.... For $5 I fully expect the performance to be no worse than washing up liquid with scent to match!

There's a couple of 5 star reviews from Aussies up there, nobody here I assume?

That's the goats milk version.... I got one of them on the way too but was wanting to keep that quiet so I could give it a raving review and post some smiling goat pictures :)

I’m quite late to the random animal milk in the soap
 
I tell ya it’s all I could do to not make a bulls milk joke.
 
Breast milk is the next big thing I hear....
Why do you think China is importing so much powdered formula these days?

Grabbed five Yaqi brushes 2x 24, 2x 26 and 30mm with lofts under <58.
Will post them up when they arrive as pictures say a thousand more words.

Didn't find anything else shave related that mattered compared to eBay prices.
That full brass razor looked interesting.
 
I grabbed the space handle tuxedo 26mm bulb.... not officially part of the 11/11 sale but they put a small discount on it anyway :)

I've never used a synthetic before and need something that will dry out a bit quicker for travelling.....
