Jul. 5, 2023 - The worst shave of LG

  • Prep: CeraVe - Hydrating Facial Cleanser

  • Brush: Maggard Green Handle 2 Band Badger #WEDONTNEEDNOSTINKINGBADGERS

  • Razor: Weck Hair Shaper (Translucent Blue Scales) #RAINBOW #YTHO

  • Blade: Personna Hair Shaper Blades

  • Lather: Gillette - Pure Cream

  • Post Shave: Nivea Men - Soothing Post Shave Balm

  • Fragrance: Tommy Bahama - Maritime Deep Blue

Again comes the day that everyone dreads. It’s not that this necessarily has to be a bad shave because there is certainly decent products out there but thats not what we do here. Gillette Pure is a perfectly ok shave but for whatever reason I decided to use an open blade today. I only have 15 open blade shaves under my belt and still very much learning here. I have learned to not really push these open blade too far and escaped without bloodshed but it was not a comfortable or close shave at all!

For todays theme, I bought the Blade, Lather & Post Shave locally. The frag is available locally but was PIFd this sample so didn’t purchase it.

For todays #photocontest I set up like r/Wicked_Edge, showing off the bathroom. Bonus points for using subpar lather today.

Daily Challenges: For todays challenge I took a trip to my local fragrance counter to try out some things. I found the frag I used today and got some sample strips. I am not the greatest at these things but I feel like a scent of Cedarwood, Bergamot, Rosemary and Galbanum would be absolutely perfect! The woody undertone balanced with the clean rosemary and bergamot with the nice green undertone of galbanum sounds incredible!

Wait a second what is this hiding at the back of my soap shelf? Damn that smells good! HOLY SHIT WHAT DO I HAVE HERE? It’s like the soap of my dreams! This has to be made by some crazy magician because this is what dreams are made of!
