A nod to all those stagging through August. This base is kind of shite IMO, and I don't see any future for it in my den. I think I will try to kill it – unless someone who is from a country that still allows mail from France wants a sample (after this glowing recommendation, who could resist)?

Have a good day!

Better than yesterday, but still not great. Tomorrow, since I'm a glutton for punishment, maybe I'll try the Body Shoppe cream to see if it gives me another bad shave.

23. August 2026

• Brush: AP Shave Co. Snakeskin w/ 26 mm Flattop/Fan hybrid
• Razor: Razorock Cyber Medium w/ 316L Bamboo handle
• Blade: BIC
• Lather: Noble Otter - Ace
• Post Shave: Zingari Man - The Master

Pre-workout shave yet again - 1 pass on head and neck, comfortable shave.

This was a nice shave. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow, first in almost two years. I have terrible anxiety - to the point that I even got an anxiety attack after my workout, sigh...
Due to this, I feel extremely defeated and exhausted. Can't write much more right now.

Choosing the wrong soap is also user error!

SOTD - 2026-08-23

• Prep: Shower
• Brush: West Coast Shaving Synthetic
• Razor: RazoRock Game Changer .84 closed comb
• Blade: Astra SP Green (1)
• Lather: Catie's Bubbles Le Nude Shave Soap
• Alum: Stirling Travel Size Alum
• Serum: Ash Hopper Blueberry Serum
• Lotion: Humble Bee Botanicals Calendulove Face Cream
• Fragrance: Farmcraft VT Perfume

1st pass WTG, 2nd pass XTG. Comfortably close shave, maybe a bit less close on my chin than a Bolzano or Feather. Decision time is approaching for buying more blades... Leaning bolzano

And, how did it go?

Better than expected, as usual with my unrealistic phobias. Got a full dental checkup, an x-ray and they removed some dental calculus. Got two follow-up appointments for September, since two of my old fillings need to be replaced since they've shifted over time - the one that gives me trouble probably has some caries around it too, but thankfully none of my teeth need to be pulled.
