Turn out the lights, the party's over. Here we are, finally, at the end of August. Some of us are noseblind. Some of us are preparing to get down on our knees and cry tomorrow morning after using a fresh and sharp blade for the first time in a month. Most of us will be standing in our dens tomorrow morning wondering "What the fuck am I going to use after being told what to use by our Shaving Overlords for the last two months?" Yes, here we are, about to be cast out on our own until next June. All that time with all those choices. It's going to feel weird.
This was a smooth ride for AA. The Raw Hoggin' brush had an easy break-in. It's nice and soft and definitely not a soap eater. I probably knocked out an ounce of this soap over the last month. I took down half a bottle of splash and close to a quarter bottle of balm. The shaves were nice and smooth. I'm happy I didn't go Nightmare Mode and/or Unscented for the month so my sanity is intact.
So it's adios, arrivederci, peace out cub scout to Austere August. May your September 1st bring joy and an awakening of your nasal passages. Have a great day all!
