I had a really crazy and annoying day, but nothing can stop me. Here I am!
Today's challenge is quite interesting. Why? Well, do you remember the boom of exotic tallow bases? Duck, Goat, Bear, Platypus, Whale? No? Well neither do I, cause I hadn't started with this hobby yet. I say interesting, because there was, or still is(Areffa has badger and bear tallow soaps), this mania for using tallow that isn't beef, and some people try to sell it like it'll do your taxes. BUY OUR BEAR TALLOW SOAP, IT'LL MOW YOUR LAWN FOR YOU. Man get outta here. I want UNICORN TALLOW soap.
But on the more serious side of things reading up on the topic, Bison tallow(which is what is used in the current DG base) is quite beneficial. Since I don't want to plagiarize and claim it as my own, I found an article on the benefits of Bison vs Vegan Tallow. And for those who are curious, HERE it is! And there might be some truth behind that, because DG Milksteak is one of my frontrunner bases.
Because of the fact that today's theme fit one of my most favourite soap scents and soap bases I decided to pair it up with my most beloved brush, a Wald with an A1 knot and the Blackland Vector. As one can imagine, when using their best(so to say) setup, the result of the shave is phenomenal! Which by itself doesn't do me any favors, because in a way you are left speechless, only thing you can say is "WOW!". I could probably go into detail how the razor gliding over the slick and shiny lather was a reminiscence of your hand caressing the back of a naked woman under satin sheets. But I digress
Quick emphasis on the brush. It's super expensive, I. REGRET. NOTHING. Really, I know it's an absurd price for a brush, but if ever arose the question, even at gunpoint "YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE ONE BRUSH", It'll be the Wald A1. My suggestion to future buyers, talk with Jannik and try to make a nice combo of colours, cause the ones he generally makes, while nice, I ain't paying that money for a basic monocolour brush with some white on the bottom.
Due to Reddit being a butthole, comment continues below as a reply...(I really gotta figure this out)
