  SOTD 23.01.2024

  • Prep: warm water
  • Razor: Stando Perun
  • Blade: BIC Chrome Platinum
  • Brush: TGS Galaxy 26 mm
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Tobacconist
  • Post Shave: Thayer’s Aloe Vera toner; Phytorelax Headshave ASB

  Tobacco Tuesday head shave. Again only one pass, but good enough.

  Tobacconist is such a great soap. Easily in my top 5 of scents… There’s something so unique and warm I enjoy about it. Plus, HoM has a great base that treats my skin really well.

  No fragrance today since I got a bad skin reaction on both my trapezius and left wrist. Probably from spraying on way too many different fragrances. I guess it’s back to spraying on my clothes and elbows for a while…

    I’ve had frag burn from all sorts of soap scents, but never on my chest, etc. Of course I’ve used 10x or 20x as many different soap scents than frag scents, so maybe I’ve just been lucky.

    Still, they’re different types of skin so I wonder if the face is typically more sensitive to it.

    Tobacconist++ my tub has a hole in the bottom.

      On the other end of the spectrum, I’ve never had frag burn by a soap, not even the two A&E I own. However, I’m unsure if what I have could be called frag burn… It looks more like an allergic reaction. My scalp reacts really sensitive to alcohol, so any usual aftershaves are out but toners are ok. Skin is weird sometimes…

      Tobacconist is definitely S-tier, both in scent and performance 👌🏻
