  • Brush: AP Shave Co. - SilkSmoke synthetic
  • Razor: Chiseled Face - Titanium Legacy Razor
  • Blade: Personna - Lab Blue (5)
  • Lather: Talent Soap Factory - Froggr
  • Post Shave: Talent Soap Factory - Froggr Aftershave splash
  • Post Shave: Ginger's Garden - Unscented Aftershave balm (+ menthol)
  • Fragrance: Stirling - Varen EdT

I'm bummed Stirling didn't make the cut yesterday, but someone had to go.

Froggr is a nice anisic scent that I really enjoy, though it gave my skin a bit of a tingle. It wasn't unbearable, but it was noticable. Maybe I'm also sensitive to anise oil? I hope not, because I love the scent of anise.

Have a great Saturday y'all.

I’m bummed about Stirling too. A product line of such good quality and so vast and that has been around for a long time is somehow easy to overlook.

Yeah agreed. Good thing it’s only an internet popularity contest with no real impact! πŸ˜„

The other brands all make good product as well, we’re quite spoiled for choice.
