SOAP - Hey it’s common knowledge nowadays that some of Rob’s lustrous soap bases are dupes of popular fragrances. This being one of them!! It’s a Creed Aventus dupe and boy is it good and so much more affordable that I got’s myself the whole enchilada my friends!!! (Translation: I got the whole set for cheap!)
RAZOR - Another Chinese imitation knock off. Follows the theme here of all things dupe! Not particular a great razor but for $9 bucks I’m not complaining. Then I have Deep Blue Sea which is a dupe of Bleu De Chanel. So all things considered these dupes made today one of the better shaving days so far!
THE THEME - I suck at drawing (aside from bathroom stall art) and today’s art for my soap label wasn’t necessarily cosmically exciting. So I gave it a go. Started slow on the basic lines! Big shout out to u/bmac92 for my Pilot Kakuno Fountain Pen! It worked like a charm.
Here is the final product.
So when you compare to the real thing it’s okay.
You know like barely passing home-mec class in high school!
