This tube of cream has been my go to when I need a quick shave. I started my wetshaving career using this cream when I bought my 34c and used it exclusively for about 7 months. I then won a noob samplepalooza PIF from u/MrLamper1 and it’s all been downhill since then! I distinctly remember posting to the DQT asking about other things with the same scent. I was directed to TTS (RIP) and just opened the floodgates.
I still keep a tube of this one in my drawer for the stupid early shaves that I sometimes have to deal with. Ironically, today is the perfect day for it as I shaved at 0515 since I had to be at work at 0600 this morning!
Daily Challenge: So I did something a little crazy today. I typically face lather so I had to bowl lather today to complete the challenge. Yesterday u/Cowzilla3 mentioned someone should “Spray some out tonight, freeze it, lather it into a soap again in the morning in a bowl.” And I thought, what if instead, I froze my lather INTO a bowl and used that bowl to lather today?! Yes it’s a crazy thought, you can blame u/Cowzilla3 for his inspiration.
How to make a Lather Bowl in 4 easy steps:
1: Gather your supplies
2: Lather up a shit ton of soap
3: Load up your bowl mould
4: Freeze
And voila! You have a Lather Bowl!
Daily Theme Justification: I purchased this cream at the commissary on base.
Relevant Post Shave & Frag: I went all products that have a blue theme to their packaging! Rounded out with a blue brush and blue razor!
Disclosure: I did not pay money for this brush handle. I sent u/thebunnynator1001 some soaps and he sent me this brush handle.
Edit: brush tag added, this has a Paragon synthetic knot in it that I set myself.
