July 1, 2023 Bonjour, Lather Games!

  • Prep: Warm Shower
  • Brush: Craving Shaving w/ 26mm SHD Badger
  • Razor: Autostrop #SELFSHARPENING
  • Blade: Feather FHS10 (1)
  • Lather: Subtle Art Soap Co. - Night Out
  • Post Shave: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag
  • Fragrance: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag

Used the autostrop today for the first time to meet the special challenge #New All The Things. Was pretty worried about how the shave was going to go once I got the blade in. Turned out to look much scarier than it was and I thought it performed pretty similarly to a GEM.

The Subtle Art soap performed decently, but started to dry out halfway through the second pass. It easily could have just been the fact I was using it for the first time. Residual slickness wasn't the worst I've had, but post shave was pretty much non-existent. Wrapped the shave up with Midnight Stag which matched mostly on word play with Night, but also because the leather note in both. Even waited to snap this picture tonight to help bring it all together even more!

Hope everyone had a wonderful LGs day one and I look forward to continue reading the shenanigans going forward!
