July 19, 2023 – What am I even doing with my life?
- Brush: Fruit of the Loom – Black Sock (with hole)
- Razor: Gillette Aristocratic
- Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (5)
- Lather: Cremo – Original
- Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. – Triumph
I’m standing there in the bathroom with a sock in my hand and some shitty Cremo shaving cream (because I already used the cream I planned to use today earlier in the month-for about the sixth time completely fucking up what small amount of planning I did for LG) and I caught a glimpse of myself in the steamy bathroom mirror. What the hell am I doing? I’m a grown man, wiping shaving cream on my face with a sock with a giant hole in it all over my face so I can please the reddit shaving judges. This is what my life has become. And really, I’m totally okay with it. Which somehow makes it worse. Not a great shave today and this cream gunks up the razors and my lather was super weird and thin from the sock. And even the Triumph aftershave, which I have always loved, smells a bit funky today. Not sure what that is about.
