**June 18th, 2025: Canned Shave Goop featuring a Canadian pharmacy’s intercom music playlist
- Brush: Chisel & Hound - Cherry w/ v25 Fanchurian Badger
- Razor: Merkur - 34C
- Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
- Lather: Barbasol - Extra Moisturizing Shaving Cream
- Post Shave: Catie’s Bubbles - Tonsorial Parlour - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - EdP
Daily Theme Justification: Barbasol is canned goop.
Daily Theme: Well well well… canned goop day. Goop maybe the catalyst why we have fallen into this hobby type of shaving. It is cheap, accessible, and gets the job done, sort of. You can certainly shave with this stuff, but a brush and soap will always be better. How about using a brush with goop? Nope. I did that today and it still sucked. While this Extra Moisturizing formula of Barbasol is better than Original, it still leaves room to be improved. The slickness is just not there and can prove a chore to add just the perfect amount of water to get it just right. Lack of slickness brings about unnecessary tugging and dragging, keeping the razor and blade from doing its job. I would consider using this on vacation, but there are just too many wet shaving travel options out there that are much better.
