    Had to be at work early this morning so a quick shave was in order. I probably should change out the blade in this razor but keep forgetting. Oh well, that’s a problem for later me.

    May. 29, 2024 - Crack soap!

    • Prep: CeraVe - Hydrating Facial Cleanser

    • Brush: Chisel & Hound Mighty Duck v19 Fanchurian Badger

    • Razor: Blackland Blackbird (SS)

    • Blade: Astra Green (2)

    • Lather: Bundubeard - Beach Bum

    • Post Shave: Spearhead - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime

    • Post Shave: House Of Mammoth Z (uncool) Balm

    • Fragrance: Spearhead - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime

    First time using this Bundubeard soap that I got thanks to u/cowzilla3! I’ll be 100% honest, I bought it for the name and label but the scent turned out to be a winner too! It’s super fresh and very beachy which is perfect! The Mrs approves so another win in my book!

    This is their glycerin base and while I usually prefer tallow bases I am pleased with the performance. Not a ton of residual slickness but plenty of it while there was lather on my face. It didn’t blow up in a fluffy mess like some other tallow free soaps do. I’m excited to try the other one I got that has tallow in it. I wish they specified what kind of tallow because Bundubeard has some exotic ones for other soaps.

    Had to revisit this for u/cowzilla3. Got a good shave from it, the lather was slightly thin but plenty of slickness and protection there. My puck has gotten very hard since the lid is cracked so I have to make sure to load a fairly long time.
