Daily Write-Up:
Today's shave took quite a bit longer than usual, since I was giving a live demonstration to u/OnionMiasma before he shaved his legs for the first time. Then I had to stick around to make sure he didn't pass out, throw out his back, or slice his femoral artery. He was an excellent student, though there was significant grumbling.
The Noir et Vanille is a truly lovely scent that was unfortunately overshadowed by a relatively new (and therefore somewhat stinky) boar knot. But it delivered, and I got a nice smooth shave; I was pleased to note that the lather didn't dry out too much between applying, then shaving, each leg quadrant.
Soap Theme Justification
* Plenty of strawberry up in here; also I hear that the honorable djudges provided approval.
Post-Shave and Fragrance Relevance Notes
* No real relevance, as we are traveling, and unfortunately Mr. Miasma did not bring enough Stirling balm to share.... so I had to raid the moisturizing cream I brought for the kids. Good thing I'm not playing for internet points.
