July 10, 2023 – Musical Monday * Brush: Paladin Chief 26mm Satin Juma Smoke
Razor: Blackland Blackbird Ti
Blade: Astra SP (2)
Lather: Van Yulay - Woodstock * Post Shave:* HAGS – Hellfire Club

Monday’s are always a little rough, but music makes it a little better. Music themed soaps, however, are not always as pleasant.

The Soap/Lather: In my search for a musical soap I stumbled upon Van Yulay’s Woodstock. Unfortunately it did not work out as well as the actual festival. The scent was a moderate level and thankfully didn’t smell like the namesake. That said, it still wasn’t an enjoyable scent. The lather was likewise lackluster in performance.

The Shave: The shave was similarly poor, but what else would you expect with unenjoyable lather. The post shave was substantially helpful in dealing with the after effects and shortcomings of the shave though.

Theme: Today’s theme was music and in that regard Woodstock nails it. As one of the most iconic musical festivals I am sure that goes without saying. My post shave may not be as clear though. Hellfire Club was inspired by the Stranger Things Season 4 and specifically in loving memory of Eddie Munson. For those that do not know Eddie, he was in a rock band on the show. So, yes, Hellfire club is made in memory of a musician.

Challenge: When I saw the challenge for today I immediately regreted my soap decision. I did, of course, grab one of my kids pencils and take a horrible stab at it.
