June 17, 2024 – Don’t Have a Cow, Man!
- Brush: Semogue 2000
- Razor: Blackland - Blackbird Lite
- Blade: Personna Lab Blue (3)
- Lather: Catie's Bubbles – Barnegat Bay
- Post Shave: HAGS – Isla Muerta splash
- Fragrance: Goodfellow and Co. – Spiced Ginger and Rum
- The Lather: Today’s lather really wasn’t as difficult as I thought it might be. I didn’t have much issue getting plenty of soap to stick on my shaved knee, and like Catie’s Bubbles is apt to do it lathered up rather easily. The scent itself is a pleasant bay rum, but admittedly I’m not the biggest bay rum guy.
- The Shave: I tried to transfer the lather directly to my face using my knee, but apparently I’m just not that flexible. My wife got quite the kick out of watching me attempt to rub my knee on my face. In the end I had to use my brush to transfer the lather to my face so I could have a decent shave.
- Aftershave/Frag: Todays scent theme was bay rum so Isla Muerta was up for my aftershave. If you haven’t smelled it, Isla Muerta is a bay rum scent with a little added citrus not that makes it a little brighter. I followed that up with Goodfellow’s Spiced Ginger and Rum to stay within the Spicy rum wheelhouse.
- Theme: Catie’s Bubbles promises no cows harmed, or any other animal for that matter.
- Challenge: I formed my lather on my freshly shaved knee, see pictures above. At first I thought this may have been a useless challenge, but then I realized this gives the judges a way to see if anyone tried to cheat the leg shave day and reuse old leg shave pictures from last year's games. Well played judges.
