Mickey Lee Soapworks to Close

It is with sadness we must report that one of our favorite vendors, #mickeyleesoaps will be closing its doors after five years in business. We've been lucky to enjoy both the company of Eric and Sammy as well as their products, but military commitments mean that continuing Mickey Lee Soapworks isn't in the cards; from an earlier announcement. We wish them both health and happiness in their future endeavors. See below for the full statement.

West Coast Shaving Introducing New Soap Line

New Shaving Soap Line from WCS

West Coast Shaving is introducing a new line of scents that will be available in a duck fat soap and a vegan jojoba oil cream. They write, "We really think that these are some of the best bases in the wet shaving market. We wanted to offer both so regardless of our customer’s preferences they would be able to enjoy these wonderful scents."

Shopify Sites Down (Again)

Shopify shops are down

Back in 2016 there was a DDoS attack which caused the outage of Shopify and Etsy (which many wet shaving artisans use). Well, it looks like something's afoot again. While you can reach the site itself as well as the shop URLs, they all respond with "Sorry, this shop is currently unavailable." See the prior article for some of the sites affected or manually go through our list of links. A little Monday #drama for you.
