Theme justification - u/brokenjaw622 gifted me this soap after I helped him snag some rare bubbles. Thanks dude!
Relevant Post Shave or Frag - Snippid's green camphor plays nicely with the grab bag of scents that is V. The splash mainly picks up the vetiver of the soap, carrying it to a lovely cool, green place.
Daily challenge - LG has officially transitioned me to night shaving, so a long shave is fine by me.
This was my 67th straight razor shave, and probably one of my best yet. Here's how long it took me.
- 15 minutes to soak the brush
- 17:20 stropped razor 20 laps on firehose linen
- 18:38 20 laps on leather
- 30:31 first pass done
- 37:37 second pass done
- 45:11 third pass done
- 46:13 toner applied to face
- 48:45 shit cleaned up, razor stropped (10 laps leather)
- 50:58 splash splashed
- 1:07:00 frag sprayed
- 1:13:06 SOTD post finished
$FOF - As explained above, Snippid hinged on the vetiver in V to bring the initial combination into a camphorous, cool, green space. Arkadia, a dupe of Terre d'Hermès, brings bright grapefruit, cedar, shiso, and a subtle grassiness. It's a shot of brightness on top of the vegetal feeling left by Snippid.
I really should buy a bottle of the Snippid frag...
