The Fat really agrees with my face. I usually use moisturiser after my shaves, but with The Fat I feel like I don't need it.

The soft heart and Fatip unsurprisingly treated me very well, but the real star of my travel setup was the Manchurian Zenith. This scrubby badger feels wonderful and makes lathering trivial.

The ring of death is making loading difficult, I'll soon have to smush it down. Fascinating stuff.

Growing that ring of death is very satisfying. I'm tempted to use this soap for AA, but I'm afraid it might die on me prematurely. #AustereAugustProblems

We travelled from the coast to our in-laws today, so I'm stuffed and tipsy for this evening shave.
The bottom of the tub showed itself today. I have a ring of death going again, and that feels good.

I've determined that Don Josè is the perfect scent for a lazy beach hotel vacation, so I keep running with it. I paired it with a banana-coconut smoothie at the breakfast buffet, except I had to substitute the coconut for lack of coconuts. Life is full of tough choices.

Yesterday's setup was nice, so I repeated it.

Don Josè's banana plays the main role here, with coconut adding only support. More about the #BVWSC here: https://sub.wetshaving.social/post/1146634/1782530
Now I'm off back to the beach 🏖
