It's the Thirsty Thursday edition of the Lather Games and I decided to show up with a handle of bourbon. Not that I am here to encourage alcohol consumption this early in the morning, or, for some like our youngest competitor u/bacconchop, ever (don't do it man! The Shaving Overlords are watching). I've never used Areffa Soap from the Ukraine before, but I received this sample soap and splash in a Pasteur's order. Figured LG was a good time to break it out. I have no idea what base this soap is and I do know Areffa has produced some soaps with bear and I think badger tallow. These folks clearly don't fuck around. Regardless, the shave was solid. Scent-wise? I'm happy to say that I won't get arrested for operating under the influence of a post-shave contact drunk. My coworkers wll also not be slipping me the number for our EAP either. All in all, a good shave...
...That I memorialized in my first ever shaving video. As a fan of very chill shaving content like Haircut Harry (It's great nighttime-need to be lulled to sleep content), I decided to take a more ASMR approach to my first go-round. Also, my wife and dogs were asleep in the next room and if I woke them up because I was talking loudly to myself making a 'shaving video', well, let's just say the whole "Happy Spouse, Happy House" thing would get off to a rocky start today. Is this video going to top the content put out by our man u/VisceralWatch? God no. He has the benefit of using his dulcet tones to extoll the virtues of whatever products he is using. Maybe in my next video attempt, I'll pull out my radio DJ voice of old (first career) and we can see who's got the dulcetest of dulcet voices in the wetshaving world.
Time for coffee with just coffee in it. Try to enjoy your day and remember to be kind to one another.
