Frugal Friday - Lather Games - 6.28.24
Alright, the bar is low today, so here's my lather games debut.
- Brush: Edwin Jagger Badger 21mm
- Razor: "Utiopia Care" shavette
- Blade: Derby Professional SE
- Lather: Edwin Jagger Sandalwood (?)
- Post: PAA Aqua D/G sample & (necessary) stypic pencil
Got this Edwin Jagger kit like 12 years ago from my college roommate. It was an awesome gift, but I didn't really pick it up and start using it until just a few months ago.
The soap has been in the dish for 12 years. My friend had told me to "melt it" into the dish by keeping it wet after a shave and pressing it into the dish. I think this "melting" technique, and time, have caused it to not be very smooth, because this was a rough shave.
The shavette and 100 pack of Derbys were like $5 on eBay a decade ago.
Happy I found this community. You guys are super helpful and entertaining. Looking forward to my "frugal" being much further away from my daily. 💸
Shave rating: 4/10. On to better days.
