July 3, 2023 – Month of Lather Day 3

  • Brush: DS Cosmetics Queen Red handle w/ DSC 24mm SHD G7 Synthetic knot
  • Razor: Razorock Game Changer .68-P
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum (1)
  • Preshave: Proraso – Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol Cream
  • Lather: Cella Milano – Crema Da Barba Almond
  • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented Balm
  • Fragrance: Polo - Red
  • Music: Tina Turner - The Best

Daily Theme: If you looked in dictionary under almondy you'd find a picture of Cella Crema da Barba Almond. The fact that the container is red is an added bonus.

Daily Challenge: I can't rap like u/Crisp_Mango, I'm not creative enough to write an ode like u/MrTangerinesky, and I don't have easy access to the precision tools used by u/Rdthedo and u/hairykopite to create a crimson homage. What I can do is dedicate today's musical selection to /u/RedMosquitoMM. The song's title says it better than anything I could come up with.

An easygoing comfortable shave to start the day. Cella and the hardware did their jobs well and I was focused enough to keep my technique sound. A 2-pass DFS was the result.

A final nod to /u/RedMosquitoMM - while brainstorming today's challenge I found one of his comments (to fellow LG rook u/tsrblke) regarding Precision Loading. I'm a PL convert (thanks to u/CosmoBarber and his video) but I never quite figured out the transition from bowl to face lathering. With one phrase ("...and then add the last few dips of water while working the lather into my stubble...") I achieved lathering enlightenment thanks to /u/RedMosquitoMM. #ROTY
