• Lather: Catie's Bubbles - X - Soap
• Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Yuzu/Rose/Patchouli - Toner

Day 9 of AS2, and the LatherBot is not easing up on it's onslaught of unobtainium.

Cold River Soap Works - Vetiver Moderne: Vetiver, Peppercorn, Sandalwood, Citrus, Plum

Catie's Bubbles X: bergamot, lime leaf, raspberry, plum, rose, geranium, sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver, amber, and musk

Atlas Shaves II - Day 8

• Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [1]
• Lather: Gentleman’s Nod - Jackie - Soap
• Post Shave: Gentleman’s Nod - Jackie - Aftershave

The official marketing scent notes for Jackie are just over the 50% minimum for the theme soap today. It's also a great fougère, so no complaints from me.

M - geranium, lavender, jasmine, Orange blossom
D - tobacco, amber woods, sandalwood, musks

Is the 90:2 patient/nurse ratio normal for your nursing home on night shifts, or are they having difficulty hiring nurses?

Welcome!

Yep, I had a sample of B+M Sandalwood, and I'm still kicking myself for not getting the rerelease when I had the chance.

Atlas Shaves II - Day 7

• Brush: Zenith Cobalt Blue (505BC SE) 28mm Boar Knot
• Razor: Karve Shaving Co. Overlander
• Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [16]
• Lather: Mike's Natural Soaps - Orange, Cedarwood & Black Pepper - Soap
• Post Shave: Noble Otter - Logbook - Aftershave

Mike’s Natural Soaps' Lavendin & Eucalyptus was not on the menu for me, but I did have Orange, Cedarwood & Black Pepper, which also shares many of the same notes with Logbook. Mike's lather is easy and effective.

I'm just lucky I had the soap on hand. I think I'm a long way from a den like u/sgrdddy.

If I could award you extra points for the Chatillion Lux trifecta I would

I've used Sudsy Soapery's base a handful of times, and I always struggle with it too.
