August 7, 2023 – Month of Austerity Day 7

  • Brush: RazoRock 506U Olive Wood w/ 26mm Natural Boar Bristle
  • Razor: RazoRock Game Changer .76-P
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum (2)
  • Preshave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented
  • Lather: Catie's Bubbles – Le Nude
  • Post Shave: Zingari Man – Unscented Balm
  • AA Tags: #RawHoggin #unscented

Today's Update: Today was the easiest I've ever made lather. I used Michael Freeberg's wet method of tub-loading for about a 16-count and almost immediately upon face lathering, slick drippy lather appeared. Knot break-in is ongoing, so I'm looking forward to the lather-building experience when the brush is fully broken in. 2 passes (WTG+ATG) plus some cleanup gave a BBS result.

Here's the Day 7 just before and immediately after the shave brush pictures. Raw Hoggin', Unscented, and AA Extreme Mode challenges ongoing.

This SOTD is part of the challenge
