• Prep: None
• Brush: Zenith 506U N
• Razor: Gillette RFB
• Blade: Super Iridium
• Lather: Barrister and Mann - Figarose
• Post Shave: Myrsol - Formula C
• Fragrance: None

Apparently I wasn't the only one with the idea to shave at this ungodly hour (props /u/bmac92 and /u/Priusaurus )

Looks like we all got the memo

I admittedly screwed up my calendar, and today was the only day left to get B&M in, so I had to put my original plans away for next year. Now Djudges, please remember the stipulations of today's challenge call for being the FIRST to use a specific lather, not who uses the WEIRDEST substitute. I have thereby satisfied the requirements of today's challenge, and in the spirit of the challenge, I have also been the first to use each item that is in my shave from razor, blade, brush, and aftershave (taking the games seriously, so probably max points here)

I'm sure the Djudges will be tired of reading the monotonous descriptions of our brush cleaning routines. Mine will be no different, but it will be one of the first, so whoever is Djudging this, hopefully won't be too jaded yet. After I complete my last pass, I lather onto my face and then squeeze out what's left in the brush. I then rinse out the brush under the tape while lathering the bristles in my palm until the water runs clear. I then give the brush 4-5 hard shakes to remove the excess water. And finally I paint the bristles on a towel for \~15 seconds, and then hang the brush to dry. This concludes my brush cleaning routine and binarily satisfies today's daily challenge.
