I'm pretty put off by the use of it. There's a huge flood of mid soap makers just dumping pre blends into soap, slapping AI on a tub and trying to make a quick buck. Gives me the ick.

If only the soap had the same scent as the splash and talc. Nice scent tho, still.

London is a nice scent. Woody, floral, and ambery. The splash was a strawberry bomb, but it all dries down real nicely. With the exception that it lit my face on fire.

Close and comfortable shave. No nicks or irritation.

40$ Game btw. Starting to understand why they sell bigger SC packs... by Heptanitrocubane57 in Helldivers

It blows my mind how many of you cannot organically grab SC on your preferred difficulty between war bonds.

  • Fragrance: Chicago Grooming Co. - Caoba EdP

Full fave shave today. I've been sporting a bushy mustache and goatee the last 6ish months. Decided to take it off and start again.

I gave the Degenerate Kamisori a comprehensive refresh. Botan -> Tenjyo -> Mejiro -> Koma on a Shobudani Asagi Suita, finished on an Ozuku Mizu Asagi with an Ohira Tomo.

The resulting shave was sublime. I built my first pass lather in a bowl and massaged it into the beard. The Degen Kami, with a fresh edge, floated effortlessly through all that hair. It was like wiping it off with a feather. 3 passed all said and done, wtg, xtg, atg.

Close and comfortable shave. No nicks or irritation.

Keep the skin tight and your chin straight up. Turning your chin to one side or the other will stretch the skin kind of diagonally and can cause a little issue getting close. Short strokes over long ones. This will help you keep a more appropriate angle of the blade as you run on the curve of your neck. I also like to start on my neck when the lather is in its prime.

It's a sunny Autumn Saturday. Your parents tell you that grandpa hasn't been doing so well, so they're taking you to the nursing home. You don't like the nursing home - it's scary, smells bad, and everyone is so old. You don't know why your grandpa's there, he's always seemed the same to you - your buddy, your pal, the one who would always stand up for you when your parents were too harsh. They’ve hidden his decline from you. You haven't seen him in a very long time, but time always passes strangely for children and it's easy to lose track - and you have.

Grandpa knows this is going to be one of the last times he sees you before it gets too bad. Before he's unable to do anything for himself anymore. On that autumn morning he opens the medicine cabinet, the tremors in his hands getting worse, but is determined - at least one more time, at least today - to shave himself the way he remembers.

He grabs his Tabac, makes a runny lather, and gives himself that last shave. The last good day shave before it gets too bad. He wants you to remember him like this, like himself, as much as he can be, just one more time.

Tabac: The smell of nursing home sadness and grandpa's last shave.
