July 21, 2023 – Month of Lather Day 21

  • Brush: DS Cosmetics Jade Green handle w/ DSC 24mm SHD G7 Synthetic knot
  • Razor: Rex Supply Co. Ambassador XL Adjustable
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum (1)
  • Preshave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented
  • Lather: Catie's Bubbles – Florentine Fern
  • Post Shave: Zingari Man – Unscented Balm
  • Fragrance: Mont Blanc - Legend Intense EdT
  • Music: Fern. - Murakami

Daily Theme: Florentine Fern is a fougère offerings from Catie's Bubbles. I like the smell off the puck. I'm looking forward to the shave. #ROTY

The Shave: What a glorious shave. The CB Luxury Cream Soap base is awesome. I forgot how well it performs and loaded too much. Luckily lather-building with this base is super easy and in short order I had about six passes worth of wonderfully smelling slick, wet lather. An effortless BBS was the result.

I want to thank the LGs for blessing us with this opulent olfactory experience... What did I just write? What are these conflicting ideas in my head? Is u/cowzilla3 right about this?. Or is this another attempt to turn me to the dark side?

The Challenge: Here's a contemplative Haiku:

The Gods of Lather
Trying Their Best to Break Me
I Will Not Succumb
