I went all in on todays #photocontest theme of #Water. Stirling makes a lot of dupes which is perfectly ok, and Deep Blue Sea is fantastic! It’s a Bleu De Chanel dupe and I should try to find some of the original to compare it to this.
Here’s the point where I would rave about Stirling’s performance because I always get a great shave with their stuff but the daily challenge forced my hand. Between this and the sock lather yesterday I just picture the djudges laughing at us trying to one up themselves with the pain and torture of this month.
I probably should have actually read the challenge before choosing my razor and taking my picture for today. But this is the only blue razor I have and it fits the theme too well not to. So I just went for it…I loaded up my brush and face lathered without adding any extra water to make the pastiest lather I could. I typically love my lather to be super drippy, especially with the Hair Shaper so this was tough. I worked it the best I could today and got a surprisingly close shave. It took a ton of time and attention to make sure to not use any extra pressure due to the lack in slickness.
