Daily Gratitude
Thanks to ShavinginCT for the soap and fragrance sample. Thanks to my grandma for buying me the aftershave a couple months ago. Thanks to EldrormR for including some free blades with my MM24. Thanks to my sister for finding a baseball bat for the photo contest. Thanks to our wonderful judges and other people for putting this whole thing together.

Daily Mistakes
Marching band. I am incredibly sore and this sucks.

Daily Writeup
Great shave all around, great scents, great soap base. This was my first time trying declaration grooming milksteak base and it is incredible, it is in one of the little sample containers and I was too lazy to take it out and put it in a bowl because I couldn't find a bowl so I just loaded from the little tub lol. It took a bit to load and it was a very small amount but it actually lathered into a pretty decent lather considering! Scent is also great. super fast one pass shave because I am super tired but I think tomorrow or saturday a passaround razor will arrive so I'll do a longer in depth shave to fully try that out.

Daily Theme Points
Trismegistus is a fabulous dupe of some Hermes perfume or something, it smells really good!

Daily Relevant Post Shave & Fragrance Points
For the fragrance I went with something that would simply match the scent and feel of the soap with la petite prairie that has some vetiver and citrus just like the soap. As for the aftershave I went with another dupe, this time of creed himalaya.

Daily Challenge
I drew this soap logo art! I printed it out for the SOTD picture but if you want the file that I made with MS Paint you can see it here. It was honestly super fun to make!

Hardware Scavenger Hunt
No new hashtags so if you want to know about these ones you can see my previous posts.

Photo Contest
Baseball! My sister found this super old bat in my closet for this photo. This year is very sad because it is the last season of our local baseball team, the salt lake bees. Don't get me wrong, I don't often watch baseball, and the bees are a terrible team lol, but man the times I have went to see the game it was great, even know the bees lost every time. I guess we are getting a new more professional team but I don't like all the new Utah stuff, a bunch of new teams and stuff, and too many people.

TL;DR
Dupe, ms paint, baseball, I win rookie of the year thank you very much give me my prize.
