  • Prep: Shower
  • Brush: Zenith 507U XSE
  • Razor: Chiseled Face Legacy Aluminum
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum
  • Lather: Taylor Of Old Bond Street - Avocado Shaving Cream
  • Post Shave: Myrsol - Formula C
  • Fragrance: Hugo - Hugo Boss
  • Sock: Hanes - X-Temp Black Ankle

Had a few creams to pick from, but decided on this TOBS Avocado, it smells like no other lather I've encountered. Keeping it "green," Myrsol C fit in nicely, it's very sweet and IMO complements the avocado. After the sweetness wears off, it has almost a burnt rubber smell which is very interesting. Topped off with some Hugo and it was a great shave.

When the challenges first started happening, I was excited because they added a new facet to make things even more interesting. Whipping up lucious avocado cream with a sock is not what I had in mind. But points are points. I used the brush to paint my face, but whipped up the lather in a bowl with a sock. And by whipped up, I mean stirred around a wet goop combo of water and cream. What a waste of a sock. Here you go

Until tomorrow!
