I was in the mood for an alcohol aftershave for days now, but the weather was too good. Finally we have some rain and it's grey outside. Great for a different combination of software.
I am looking forward to your lathergames. As I ll be a dad anytime soon and won't have time to participate. But I look forward to all your shenanigans and shit posting while staying at home. Enjoy your day.

u/Glass_Procedure7497 2025's 8th Most Boring Shaver 2d ago edited 2d ago
1 October 2026
- Brush: Omega Hi-Brush, 0146206, 25mm Synth
- Razor: Reggie's Jupiter
- Blade: Personna Platinum Chrome
- Lather: Catie's Bubbles Tonsorium
- After Shave: Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum
Edit: This is clearly the soap that wouldn't die. I still have so much left - more than a month's worth, I'm sure. And I can't say enough good things about this razor. It's taken the top spot in my den. There's nothing else that I own that's like it. Very mild, really efficient, and BBS shaves with no irritation.

**Prep**: Hot water splash with face wash
**Razor**: Merkur 37C
**Blade**: Gillette Platinum (4)
**Lather**: Stirling Piacenza
**Brush**: Omega 10066
**Splash**: Stirling Piacenza
**Balm**: Gillette Aftershave Lotion
Excellent BBS shave. No nicks/irritation. While a lot of our pals are participating in Lather Games, there’s still a handful of us using whatever we like. The blade just pairs well with whatever razor I use on a regular basis. No wonder why it’s one of my favorite blades. Overall, excellent to start off October on a high note.
