• Brush: Century – Pure Bristle  
• Razor: Merkur 34C  
• Blade: Gillette Silver Blue   
• Lather: Barrister and Mann – Sunny Lane  
• Post Shave: Barrister and Mann – Sunny Lane  

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: sets don’t make sense for leg shaves. I go through soap alone at roughly quadruple the rate of face shavers. Setting aside how quickly I would run out a bottle, covering my legs in aftershave would literally violate my workplace dress code that requires aftershave and perfume be applied moderately.

It’s safe to say overdose day isn’t high on my favorites list. But, I do have a set from a pif and I reserve it for this occasion. I also set aside this day for an underarm shave. There is no good way to apply aftershave to your armpit FYI. But I achieved it and now I smell like my grandpa. That is not a bad thing. My grandpa was fantastic and I’m lucky to have a scent that associates good memories of him.

Title and picture refer to my own little amusement. It’s my theory that Bath & Body Works body wash + body lotion are the mainstream/ladies version of our soap + aftershave sets. So I dug out my favorite set and used it in my shower. For the judges to note: body wash and lotion were not involved in the actual shave today. It just amused me to have two sets of stuff. I should have included a picture of my shampoo & condition to really round it out.

Challenge: see SOTD picture.
