  • Frag: Stirling- Arkadia EdT

I'm glad I took today off to recover from the election chaos. The sun rose as always and I was able to take my time with this luxurious (™️) shave. It left me feeling super refreshed.

I love the scent of Arkadia, one of my favorite Stirling dupes.

Have a great day y'all!

November 5, 2024 - SLS

  • Brush: Zenith - B21 boar
  • Razor: Gillette - Super Speed Black Tip
  • Blade: Gillette - Perma-Sharp (2)
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Seville
  • Post: Pinaud - Clubman AS splash
  • Post: Ginger's Garden - Unscented AS balm (+menthol)
  • Frag: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac EdC

Tonight I felt like combining some comforting barbershop-esque scents. (Does Tabac count as a barbershop scent?) It was a long night -- some comfort felt appropriate.

My wife and I spent the evening with friends watching the election results trickle in, and to say we were disappointed is an understatement. Gutted is more like it.

Life will go on, but I'm concerned about the direction it seems we'll now be pointing.

Do good for those around you, that's the most important thing.

It's another protocol for secure decentralized communication. Also offers e2e encryption.

I use Element as a client, but there are others.

Yes, I'd love to try Texas on Fire! It's one I've had my eye on for a bit.

Want to send me your address on Matrix?

  • Brush: Omega - 10048 boar
  • Razor: Gillette - Super Speed Black Tip
  • Blade: Gillette - Perma-Sharp (1)
  • Lather: Chiseled Face - Pine Tar
  • Post: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two AS splash
  • Post: Stirling - Glacial Unscented AS balm
  • Frag: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two EdT

I had a very rushed shave in between meetings this morning.

Pine Tar always feels great on my skin, which was welcome after the irritation I experienced last night.

Have a good day y'all, and try to stay positive. Elections always cause so much anxiety, but the world will go on.

Ah, yes I see it now. Thanks. It wasn't showing up in my mobile client.

Yeah definitely. @walden@wetshaving.social do you have matrix set up?

  • Frag: Stirling - Oro Valley EdT

Such a great scent, I'm happy to now have this trifecta in my rotation.

I had a bit of burn during my first pass that went away for the second and third. I'm hoping my skin was just feeling sensitive and that it isn't suddenly frag burn with this scent.

I also wonder whether this brush might be irritating my skin. I seem to remember I also had a bit of burning the last time I used it.

Luxurious (™️)
