DAY 27 LATHER GAMES! JUST ME AND MOTHER NATURE!

  • Prep: Water
  • Brush: DS Cosmetics 30mm Tuxedo Knot
  • Razor: Blackland Vector
  • Blade: Chinese(12)
  • Lather: Summer Break Soaps - Homecoming
  • Post Shave: Clubman Pinaud - Lilac Vegetal After Shave Lotion
  • Fragrance: Black Mountain Shaving - Vernal Equinox
    PIC OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN

To start off things, one would think that when going to the mountains to such a beautiful place, one would not forget to make an awesome picture. Yep, well I'm stupid, might have been the 2 hours of sleep I had been since the previous night...
Anyways. Lavender day. It is a scent that comes up in a lot of fougeres etc. but somehow lavender on it's own never really took a special place in my heart. I mean I like it when it's in cleaning products and essential oils, but in a soap, pure lavender scent. Naaaah... Sorry peeps.

DAILY CHALLENGE

I was so happy when I read about the shave outside daily challenge, cause I had been waiting for it for some time, and coincidentally it aligned with a free day(so to say), so I got the chance to go to the mountains above Sofia, the Vitosha mountains in a special spot I found and shave there and afterwards relax.

VIdeo of shaving outside

I was thinking of making this a loud spite shave, but I heard from the podcast that u/merikus enjoyed someone shaving outside and he explained it was a really calming experience. So I decided that since I am surrounded by nature I should remain calm and not meme it up. It was serene and just like a meditation. I was the first time in a long time that the temperature had cooled down and there was wind blowing, while a gentle sun was tickling my face. Just bliss!! Thank you for this challenge!

As far as Spite Shaves go, NO ONE SAID I CAN'T DO IT HERE IN WRITING!

u/OnionMiasma YO WHERE YOU AT YOU TWO TIMING STEALING BASTARD! You haven't even shaved!!! I gotchu today brother, you're probably gonna shave in your backyard like a scrub! Guess what I BOUGHT A FUCKING MOUNTAIN BROTHER! WHERE'S YOUR MOUNTAIN?!?!?! HUH? HUH??

You shouldn't have messed with me yesterday man! You'll regret it!

You can't outdo me man! You just brought the heat on yourself!!! Three more days, I'll destroy you brother.

You'll beg the Gods for forgiveness, for fucking with me!

All them fumes from yesterday, must've screwed with your head!

I ain't done with you!!

#FOF

Now today was a fucked up day. You know why, cause I never tried Lilac Vegetal and that shit smells like the water from a vase that has had roses in it for 3 weeks. RANK... Straight up swamp smell. I thought the Lilac would compliment the Lavender.... Disregarded that stuff and chose something that would go wonderfully with the mountains during the summer! Vernal equinox is a delightful caption of what I just described, it even has Lavender in the middle notes! If you want a classy woody smell, with a fair amount if citrus influence I suggest this one. It's a good one! The blackcurrant in it is a banger!!
