  Hey look it’s everyone’s favourite black sea glass brush aficionado.

  I actually shaved first thing. Next in line was no scrubs but that’s been bumped to last as it’s special. So instead it’s the first shave of a NO double header.

  Northern elixir. A scent my daughter really likes and good for hot weather. She says it smells like a cold forest and she’s not wrong

  I picked LGC this morning thinking that I need to start making an honest effort at killing this. I wrapped up and sprayed my EdT and today was the first time I ever smelt the cinnamon note of it and it almost blew my head off. It adds nice spicy ness and powderyness to it that I’m just now identifying.

  Birthday shave 🎂. This is the Soft Heart version of 42 that came with the finger balm back in 2021. I recently picked up a trick of it with the soap in Excelsior on the discord BST because I wanted the alcohol splash and the frag.

    Happy Birthday! I assume that along with the answer to life, the universe, and everything, this may also represent a count of years you have completed. Congrats(!), if so. The older I get the more I realize that even with energy input, entropy’s increase is inevitable ;)
