June 20, 2024 - am i doing this right

  • Brush: Chisel and Hound Lather Games Synthetic
  • Razor: Karve Christopher Bradley (brass, SB-C)
  • Blade: Wizamet
  • Lather: Spearhead Shaving - Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime
  • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving - Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime
  • Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime

This stuff is as citrus-y and summer-y as citrus and summer get. You want lime? This has lime for days. Relevance by trickhole.

Day two of trying out this brass CB, and I'm already convinced I need to upgrade to one of these heavier metals. The difference in thought required to not use pressure is night and day, and it's way easier with the heavier razor. Tomorrow I'm going to start trying out the larger gaps.

Today I shaved outside. I spent this entire shave wandering around my yard because if I stop moving for one second I get attacked by mosquitos. But moving around means having to dodge dog poop. So this shave was performed while hiking around my yard, staring down at the ground instead of my face, and while having the life force sucked out of me by parasites. Why do we go outside again?

Through all of that nonsense, the Highland base performed amazing as always. Super slick, great post shave face feel, great cushion. There's nothing left to say about the scent in Sea Sp/Ice Lime that hasn't already been said. It's fucking phenomenal. If I had to dump my entire shave den except one soap this is probably the scent I would keep (but I would buy a tub of SSL in highland first).

Today's photo contest theme is Bokeh Balls. Please judge the photo in the title. I don't know if I did this right. The youtube tutorial I watched was about getting the camera to focus on something close to it while the lights are far away (or vice versa), and that's pretty hard with a fixed focus iPhone camera. But this is my best attempt. It looks like it worked to me. There's going to be somebody with a real camera who does this theme the justice it deserves and then some. I'm just here to learn new things. #photocontest
