    SOTD 27-June

    • Brush: Chisel & Hound - Eyespot #COMPOSITE

    ROTY

    Day 2 of the 39C going well, not sure I can feel a massive difference with the slant itself but it gives a good finish. This being my first LG I'm probably going to muck something up and I'm not going to be able to hit every day of the games but I'm looking forward to participating, should be a laugh, so this is the last LG PRACTICE 

    Hope everyone has a grand day.

    Cheers

    Marc

    • Brush: Chisel & Hound Badger #composite #shd
    • Razor: Gillette Superspeed
    • Blade: 7 O’Clock – Sharpedge (Yellow) (3)
    • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. – Sheep
    • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. – Varen

    As we’re approaching lather games and this is a LG PRACTICE post I’m leaning more heavily on shaves that are simple and non-irritating. Sheep base is that. I bought the varen balm later because they didn’t have any varen in stock when I got the soap. It was unclear if the sheep line was staying so I grabbed some because I wanted a sheep base in my den for days like this. If varen is around when I need a new tub I’m going to get that. It’s a good scent.

    For lather games this year I think I’ll try for #ROTY and #fof (the latter being crazy since I don’t wear frag a lot, but that’s the angle I bring to the table.) I might do a #photocontest here and there. (and won’t use the tag unless I have one other than these testing runs.

    3 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.
     

    The top citrus notes off of White Buffalo remind me of Stirling's Piacenza, which I love. But this scent morphs into a warmer, more layered fragrance as it ages. This is only the second 345 Soap I've tried and I'm impressed. I like that they are doing their own scents (or appear to be), and I think the soap base is great. Thanks to u/whosgotthepudding for this smush. We traded; a smush of my 345 Undercut for a smush of his 345 White Buffalo. I'm pretty sure 345 Soaps is 2 for 2 with both of us.

    I note that there are a lot of Lather Games test comments today. I believe I have the correct format (if it hasn't changed from last year), but I do wonder if I'm satisfying u/djundjila's bots by specifying a (straight) razor that doesn't have a (replaceable) blade.
