  • Brush: Yaqi Synthetic
  • Razor: Blackland Blackbird
  • Blade: Feather (2)
  • Lather: Uncle Jon's Shave Soap - Pipe Smoke
  • Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - Connecticut Shade
  • Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Tobacconist

Tobacco scented soap from Maryland, which was a somewhat-reluctant Union state but a Union state nonetheless, tobacco scented splash from the great state of New Jersey, and tobacco scented fragrance from New York. This soap came in the pass-around sample box and I had never heard of this brand before. Maybe this is the soap that Dr. Jon made before he got his degree? I'm also not sure why you would trust someone that looks like Uncle Jon's caricature on the label with making any kind of shaving gear whatsoever, but here we are. The perfomance was about what you would expect from a coconut oil/glycerin based soap, which is to say it lathered easily, was slick enough, but felt quite drying on my skin.

Anyway, here are a few memes: Summer break handle drop
