  • Razor: Aylsworth Razors - Drakkant
  • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
  • Lather: Geo F. Trumper – Coconut Oil Shaving Cream

I’m living Island Time today!

I started my morning by using the one of the original shaving products - Geo F. Trumper Coconut Oil Shaving Cream. As soon as I opened the sample, I was greeted by the rich, creamy scent of fresh coconuts. I tried to imagine I was on a pristine beach, the gentle waves whispering to me as I lathered up. I never used anything from this brand before, but I was pleasantly surprised by it. It performed far better than I was expecting, allowing my razor to glide effortlessly over my skin. Of course, I expected this to be like canned goo, and it was far better than canned goo. With the scent of coconuts with me throughout the shave, it felt like a tropical vacation in a jar.

I kept that vibe going with the splash: it was time for Island Time. This aftershave is nothing short of a bottle of paradise. The scent is a perfect blend of tropical fruits and a hint of ocean breeze, making me wish I was lounging in a hammock with a piña colada in hand. The splash gave a refreshing tingle that was as invigorating as a dip in the crystal-clear waters of a Caribbean island.

To complete my tropical transformation, I spritzed on some Clinique Lily of the Beach EdP. This fragrance is a bouquet of white lilies, warm sand, and a touch of sea salt. It’s like capturing the essence of a Hawaiian Lei at a beautiful beach resort. The scent lingered beautifully, keeping me in my tropical daydream all day long. The combination of these products left me smooth, refreshed, and smelling like an island paradise. After having zero expectations for Geo F Trumper, I’m really pleasantly surprised how this shave came together. 🏖️🪒🌴

Challenge: This is my first Lather Games. I’m having fun, but I’m out on this challenge. No thanks, team. I kind of like having hairy legs.

On a related note, I realized I forgot the #ROTY tag a couple days ago. Goddammit. I guess we know who’s NOT going to be Rookie of the Year.
