June 07 2024: Vetiver You Want

  • Brush: Dogclaration B9A 30mm #FRANKENBRUSH
  • Blade: Shark Super Chrome (1)
  • Razor: Gillette Slim #ADJUSTABLE
  • Lather: West Coast Shaving - Grapefroot
  • Post Shave: West Coast Shaving - Grapefroot
  • Fragrance: Declaration Grooming - Dirtyver

The theme today is Vetiver, and the vetiver in Grapefroot combined with the zesty citrus makes this one of my favorites. Then for the fragrance I went with the dank Dirtyver, which is just a blast of earthy, dirty vetiver and I can only sum up my feelings about this frag in meme form.

The shave itself was fine, in keeping with the daily challenge I did a single pass against the grain, but to avoid irritation I set my Slim on the softer side, unlike GeoFatBoy I don't have leather skin. Definitely not the smoothest shave I've ever had but serviceable enough.

Sponsor Spotlight is Aurora Grooming, it has been fun seeing the progress they have been making in their brushes, and enjoyable to see a new artisan get the spirit of the community so quickly.
