SOTD by u/TheStallionPartThree

June 1, 2024 – Bonjour LG and Blessings

• Brush: Ap Shave Co Synbad 24mm
• Razor: Lady Gillette – Pink
• Blade: Voskhod (1)
• Lather: Holy Black Shaving Soap
• Post Shave: Old Spice – Old Spice Original

My dearly beshaved. We gather here today in this digital sanctuary of lather and blade to compete. Compete together, in games of friendly but possibly treacherous bloody battle. This next month will require much of us. strength, courage, resilience, and faith. But most importantly… a pretty stacked den the result of internet driven hobby of obsessive hoarding. But NAY let me not digress to an argument for another day, let me not spark controversy like those that speak the tounges of a retriever of gold, for our dens may also be stacked, stocked, and overflowed from our fellow shaving brethrens goodwill. I myself shave today from the generosity of u/cowzilla3 and his offering of citrus and spice with an opening of the games shot of gunpowder that begets the most Holy Black. A scent so familiar but a lather wholly new to me. I use this with a razor I myself gifted to my betrothed as she enjoy mid century tchotchkes, and while I have used a DE blade and razor so many times before it is in the SPIRIT of the games I wield this razor as I have never used it. (Also these voskhods, I can’t remember even using them from my maggard starter kit) As many of you all have before me, you may see from my SOTD photo that I assembled my own shrine for today, a mosaic of a personal search for spiritual meaning in my daily burdens and blessings. Tokens and teachers that have shown me the way of just lettin it be, man. And while our beliefs may be disparate, for the next 30 days we together in union put our face and the grooming products we love forward in the search for meaning (but more likely childish friendly hobbyism). So may we now take the time to reflect with reverence on this our collective yet competitive campaign. From the judges to the rookies and raw hoggers, from frag bros to weckists, the poets of posts, exhibitionists and the airbudists may we battle on this summer break like the noblest of otters spirit of goodwill, charity, and fellowship, together. ———————— P.S.: The lady Gillette was actually quite nice with the long handle but a touch too mild. The Holy Black lather was actually very impressive and really a nice rounded scent of OS.
