Update: Contest closed; the winner has been notified.
Scordo.com has partnered with our friends over at ItalianBarber.com for a great giveaway, sorry ladies this one is geared towards men who can grow facial hair (but read on if you want to win a great gift for your boyfriend or husband!).
ItalianBarber.com is run by two second-generation Italians who live via the La Bella Figura philosophy or “how one looks, how one smells, how one carries oneself; basically, making the best possible impression in all things, all the time.” For most Italians, La Bella Figura is as important as eating and live well and my mother drilled the concept into me from a very early age. ItalianBarber.com carries a wide variety of grooming products with a focus on Italian personal care products, from soaps and shaving products, to fragrances, colognes and grooming accessories.
We’re offering a single Scordo.com reader the chance to win one (1) “Beginner Double Edge Wet Shaving Starter Kit” including:
- 1 Wilkinson Double-edge Safety Razor (includes Razor and 5 Wilkinson double edge blade)
- 1 RazoRock Classic Shave Cream, 150ml
- 1 RazoRock 100% Natural Handmade Aftershave Wax 60ml,
- 1 Omega 10049 Boar Shaving Brush – Black, made in Italy
- 1 RazoRock 60g Alum Stick
I’ve spent some time with the above products and each item is a wonderful introduction to “wet shaving” – the art of using a single blade or safety razor with high quality shave cream and brushes to achieve a world class shave. I was particularly impressed with the RazoRock handmade aftershave wax and the Omega Boar shaving brush and both products are a super value. Our beloved fan Dr. K., swears by the RazoRock Alum Stick and the RazoRock Classic Shave Cream (see his comments below). The safety razor by Wilkinson isn’t the highest quality double-edge razor on the market but it’s a great starter razor and when you’re ready to move up to an all metal razor ItalianBarber can help!
