Well, today didn't go to plan. I got rained out of the camping trip, so instead of sitting in my Jeep or under a tarp scrolling through my phone, I packed up and headed home. Sucks though, the SOTD shot was actually gonna be on my kayak and I was going to shave on the water.
But here we are with a boring bathroom shave. I will say that I quadrupled down on the challenge. The soap gets smokey with lime undertones after you lather it up. The splash is more lime-forward.
The soap and splash were courtesy of u/loudmusicboy. Not only is he a generous dude, but he's also a competitor in the games. True to his name, his PIF requested that you share a story where you went to a concert...I don't go to many anymore, but I went to several when I was younger. Reminiscing on music-centric memories is always a great time.
The razor came to me via u/Walden. The razor is amazing and incredibly smooth. Thanks to the Djudge for offering it up and I'll count myself incredibly lucky for winning the PIF. He also threw a soap in, I hadn't ever used that brand but it was a great smelling soap with good performance to boot.
The brush was also a PIF win, but I can't find the record of who did the PIF. It was a series PIF with 5 brushes and the winner of each PIF got to pick the one they wanted. I was the last winner, and I use the brush quite a bit.
There are so many great pillars of this community. I appreciate being a part of it. For the sake of brevity, I'll call out u/Marquis90 as well. I truly enjoy our periodic shave-bud days where we use similar scents. If I was still stationed in Germany, he's a member I'd go meet.
Have a great day folks.
