CREAM day.
I was looking forward to today’s shave, I don’t use TOOBS enough. It’s the first soap/cream that I successfully face lathered. The sent is light but it is enjoyable while shaving. I’ve had the Streamline set for awhile now, first use today. When I planed out my calendar I penned in Streamline and Drakkar. The Drakkar for me is 8O’s-90’s barber shop scents and what better to go with a soap that’s literally the name of the street and barber shop.
The shave was great but my thoughts during it were how I was going to set up today’s picture. The theme I chose to day was Onion. I call it Romance of the onion.
Today was youngest son’s 14th birthday. I know I have been saying I have a 14 yo lately but today it’s official. He’s outside right now in the blistering heat running around in his new cleats kicking a soccer ball around. I almost past out from heat stroke just watching him. Oh to be young again.
Today’s Challenge Den tour.
I only started wet shaving a 6 months ago and have fallen down the rabbit hole very quickly.
I’ll start off with frags. I was collecting fragrances long before wet shaving.
This drawer is body washes, body sprays, deodorants, unopened frags, bar soaps and lotions.
Here is the den
