Theme: Wild Thang Wednesday - Man, this soap is wild! What's even wilder? The trifecta. Things that make this wild thing wild:

  • The trick was all new in the box. All of it was made and sold in Poland. I've never been there!
  • It was a really nice and comfortable shave but I literally had Wars. On my face.
  • There's a bunch of tariffs between me and the maker of this stuff. Dee-zell prices are through the roof globally. Total spend: $13.50 with free shipping. That's crazy wild.

Three bullets of wildness for justification. QED.

Wars Classic by Miraculum is woody, powdery, warm spicy perfume with balsamic undertones. Has notes of cedar, sandalwood and woody notes.

Daily Challenge: Get PFAS out of our shaves! I didn't really change anything for this challenge. I don't use tap water for lathering. I have a water well and it's super hard. I do soften a sink full of well water with citrus acid for washing up face and gear at the end of the shave.

For blooming and lather building, I use the same water I use for making espresso. It's water collected from a geyser in the Ouachita Mountains near Norman, AR. It's neither hard nor soft and it's not doped by any municipality. It tastes good and has a good mouth feel. Well, it does before I put soap in it.
