• Brush: Stirling Synthetic 24mm
• Razor: King C. Gillette Chrome
• Lather: Barbasol - shaving cream
• Post Shave: Thayers - WitchHazel unscented.

Well this was an easy challenge to achieved but one of the most uncomfortable. I was literally not able to fully get the shave I wanted. One of those things where you still feel the stubble after you are done shaving!! Irritating as all hell even with multiple passes so I blame the Barbasol. I must say I have been pampered with all the artisan soaps and creams and balms and my skin is always amazing. Today is dry, and itchy and reddish even though I did not fully remove all my facial hair. Thayers helped but alas the sacrifices we make to stay competitive…lol One may ask why do I have a shaving bowl and a shaving brush in this pic! One would be asking the right question! I attempted to use the brush = FAIL#1. Attempted to use the shaving bowl = FAIL#2. Not a good morning. Facial lotion here I go.

ROTY

Edit: Due to my FAIL shaving experience this morning I was in such a hurry to finish shaving that I did not post about what I would consider the perfect scent! To be honest my favorite scent already exist but it hasn’t being made into a shaving soap yet. Weirdly enough I am a big fan of all things squeaky clean. And there is nothing more clean than the scent of PineSol floor cleaner. Yes the one people use to clean bathrooms.

So I would mix PineSol scent, some menthol, and little bit of lemon and BAM!!! My face would smell squeaky clean all day. Oh the day this will come to fruition is so close I can smell it!!!
