02-08 Onwards and upwards

  • Brush: Yaqi 'Purple Haze' w/ 24mm Mew Brown knot
  • Razor: 1953-54 Gillette 'Aristocrat Junior'
  • Blade: Gillette Nacet (2)
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Soap
  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Balm
  • Fragrance: Proraso - Wood and Spice - Cologne

Hey, it's Day 2 and I'm still in it! Crazy.

Despite my penchant for long-winded essays in these SOTDs, due to the lack of variety during Austere August I'm very quickly going to run out of things to say, so I'm going to take it easy for now. That's technically part of the un-challenge, so I expect bonus points. After yesterday's post took over an hour to write (including the video aspects and decluttering my sink space for such) I think that's for the best.

There's nothing much else to report, except that Mood Indigo is a thing of beauty, Tusk is the superior soap base choice, and I'm loving the shaves so far. Let's see if/how that last point changes as we get deeper into the month.

Shout-out to all my Mammoth lather-buddies this AA. Particular shout-out to u/Marquis90, who has also chosen the pinnacle of HoM's line-up in Mood Indigo. Let me know if I've missed any other Indigo-ers.
