22-08 - Tusk Two-sday

  • Brush: Yaqi 'Purple Haze' w/ 24mm Mew Brown knot
  • Razor: 1953-54 Gillette 'Aristocrat Junior'
  • Blade: Gillette Nacet (22)
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Soap
  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Balm
  • Fragrance: Proraso - Wood and Spice - Cologne

Would you look at that: we're in the single digits to go until the end of Austere August! It feels like yesterday that I was surprised about making it to Day 10, and now we're more than two thirds of the way through this 'challenging' gauntlet.

It's a bit too early for the big month in review, but on brief reflection I'm pretty happy with how I've been doing so far. Good shaves, great set. Really re-discovered my love for this Aristocrat Jr, too - a beautiful piece that delivers a dang smooth shave.

Anyway, I'm absolutely knackered. Big day today once again (sensing a pattern here?) and the celebratory drinky I poured myself on a whim is just making me sleepy.
