  • Brush: NIKE Everyday Max Cushioned SOCK
  • Razor: Paragon - Shaving ‘Don’ DE razor
  • Lather: Truefitt & Hill - 1805 shaving cream
  • Post Shave: Tayers - Witch Hazel

So shaving with a cream is a change of pace for me. It’s supposed to be soft I assumed but my sample was super hard (thanks for the sample u/curbside_champ no hard feelings just love ). So either the sample got harden by sitting in an UPS truck in Phoenix (record high temps) or I don’t know! And the daily challenge didn’t help my lather either. In fact the scent was okay but I don’t know if it was my sock or the soap :-) The true winners of today’s challenge before I go in more detail!

TODAY’s CHALLENGE: WTF??? I tried a thick sock and couldn’t imitate the guy on the video. So my second sock attempt was thinner athletic sock which worked better but not much. I got enough lather for one pass. I must work on my Sock Lathering Technique. Is that something u/merikus may further develop and thus take us through the next philosophical paradigm shift of not GUTL but GUTSL??? (Grand Unified Technique of Sock Lathering)

To Be Continued……..
