2023-07-01 Bonjour! New Base? But of Course!
~~Note: I have been putting off posting - Imgur.com has been having issues this morning, so until it picks up it's pieces no pic for the SOTD or for the soap and aftershave. I had not yet pulled them in. Hopefully the Brush and Brassbird links at least work (crosses fingers).~~
Never have used Moon Soaps before. I think they have two bases a soap and a cream however it could just be odd wording - this one is definitely a shave soap.
Anyway - the soap is inspired by the Bixby Bridge located on scenic Highway 1 near Big Sur, California. (never been there but here is a photo of the bridge by Karen Gustafson Randall from the soap maker's website).
As I am metaphorically putting my feet onto the bridge for Lather Games this is a good first step.
First of all I love the scent: Black Tea, Tonka, Smoked Vanilla Bean, Black Volcanic Sea Salt, Coastal Driftwood, Black Pepper, Italian Bergamot, Jasmine, Green Apple, and Musk. Very nicely done.
Performance - leaves me happy. Since this is a first time use I will have to give it a go a few times but gotta say I'm happy.
~~Hopefully I can get a pic up. I've a nice one and with the label on this being intentionally old fashioned I even got to use some video effects without them looking stupid and out of place. This will have to do to show off the~~ label - from Moon Soap's website) Fixed!
Sorry no new razors so I can't play along there today.
Have a good one.
Ed: Woah! It finally uploaded!
