Sunday, February 11, 2024 - Super Bowl Shave

  • Prep: hot shower
  • Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
  • Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Superspeed A1 (1955)
  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3)
  • Lather: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - Shaving Soap
  • Post Shave: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - Aftershave Balm

Even though I'm still a little bitter about my team not making it to the Super Bowl I'm still looking forward to enjoying the game today. So I figured I should use my "manliest" scent to prepare.

Also, in typing this I'm just now realizing the missed opportunity. I should have used my scuttle (ie lather bowl) and created an actual "super bowl" of lather in honor of the big game. Oh well, maybe I'll remember next year.
