PIC OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN
SHAVE:
So today's shave was muuuuuuch better than last time and I give it all to the Feather blade, since I wanted everything to be colour coordinated I HAD to use the Henson! Sad part was, that I was in such a hurry that I couldn't enjoy my shave... Why sad? Check out in the next part.
SOAP:
Well I may have mentioned earlier, but I did use THIS exact soap for 30 days during June, and grew fond of it, accustomed to it. It became like my second nature. Why did I use this soap for 30 days? Well cause the scent was INCREDIBLE! I have not smelled another summer/beach scent like this ever, Shore by DG comes close, but this one is just you and the beach. Sitting there on your towel under the shade of your beach umbrella, getting the sea breeze through your face, feeling sprays of salt water from the crashing waves on the seashore. That's it, just perfect!!!! And the soap base is veeeeeeeeery good, also super economic soap(I know most people don't care about that). So yeah, I had to rush a shave with one of the most enjoyable and nostalgic/reminiscent soaps that I have used, of recent times.
DAILY CHALLENGE:
Ugh.... I am so annoyed I didn't have time to make a proper photo today... I wanted to include the CaYuen bowl and the Henson razor, but noooo. Why can't I use them now? Cause the lighting is so shit that no matter what you do, they just screw up the whole colour theme of the shave.... So after an hour of taking photos and rendering them THIS is the best I could do... Honestly I'm pissed... I should have listened to u/raymoonie when he told me that I should buy a lightbox, well he didn't tell me, I asked how he makes such gorgeous photos. A lightbox would have fixed my issue. But nooooo I gotta go and spend it all on soaps and aftershaves....
#FOF
Why 4711? Well cause it's damn classic and out of all the scents I cross checked with Montrose Beach this one fit perfectly! Well almost, the citrus peel smell is a bit more than I would like, but it does bring summer to your skin!
P.S- Because my post today is as dry as a well done steak, I was gonna share a story about my stupid youth and how one summer while drunk I chose to vomit off the terrace, instead of the bathroom, all over some people's laundry that they hung to dry, but the story got long so I opted not to include it. I can just imagine Jeep if he reads this.
