Hand lathered which is absolutely the opposite of anything I'd typically do, per the daily challenge. This lather is certainly thick. I think this is where the W_E'rs get their idea that cushioned lather is good lather. It worked but the slickness wasn't there. I actually really dig the scent. It's old timey and reminds me of a grandpa or something. I went full drugstore/local market for the entire shave. It was okay but I'll definitely look forward to the artisan products tomorrow. I believe the Nivea balm was actually the first aftershave product I bought when I was just getting into wetshaving. Nautica Voyage is a good, cheap aquatic. Looking forward in the calendar, isn't today pretty redundant with frugal shave day? That was the nice part about flex day in lieu of frugal day.
