Today's Theme: I live in the United States, so I kind of panicked yesterday realizing that I only had American soaps. I have a of Proraso cream, but that meant I couldn't use my Omega brush. I rushed to Walmart late last night and did find a shave product that was not made in America, which seems strange because we have become so accustomed to things being made in China or somewhere besides America. The shave gel actually lathered up somewhat decently with the brush despite it being canned goo. It is certainly a step above Barbasol, but still below Proraso products. I actually enjoyed the fresh clean scent and the shave was okay, the Twig is almost unusably mild for me.
Today's Challenge: As stated above, I'm from the States. The only thing I missed today was a pre-shave, but I don't hardly ever use them.

Extra Words: Thank you to the judges for organizing all of this. This was my first ever Lather Games and I had a blast. It was much more dedication than I initially thought it would be, and I did not even go that hard compared to some of the others competing. Thank you for the smushes u/Eructate u/hugbckt u/Tetriside u/bmac92.
