June 4th, 2025: Complementary Non-Dickhole Day
- Brush: Omega - Bambino Boar $SMOLL $RUNT
- Razor: Henson - AL13++ $ALUMINUM
- Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
- Lather: Zingari Man - The Navigator - Soap
- Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime - EdT
Daily Theme Justification: The Navigator and SSL are not the same scent, but complementary.
Daily Theme: My dickhole was causing me irritation this morning… err this was a last minute pairing because my other plan fell through. This is the Lather Games and there is no time wallow in the mire. In keeping with nautical themes yesterday, I chose The Navigator as my soap. The Navigator is a gentle, yet complex scent arrangement reveals soft woods, lighter sea air, a gentle sweetness, and invokes imagery of an experienced sailor who knows how to keep all things in line. Sea Spice Lime enters the picture and you get punched in the nose with lime, sea spray, and oakmoss, a dank and loud arrangement of notes. SSL is the new sailor who is bold and confident, but inexperienced. Together, the Sea Spice Lime injects more life to the Navigator, while The Navigator reminds you of subtlety, poise, and refinement. Together, these two scent notes remind us to stay even keeled while traversing through rough waters.
Daily Challenge: I opted to use my Henson today since it is very difficult for me to get a bad shave with it despite using my left hand. I loaded and face lathered with my left hand and I thought that was more difficult than using the razor. Do I love left hand shaving? Not in particular. Would I be upset if I broke my right hand and had to shave with my left hand? Yes, I would be pissed.
