"Product must be:
     - Explicitly marketed as a Summer scent OR
     - Explicitly marketed for a holiday occuring between Summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox OR
     - Prominently feature aquatic or citrus accords.
Caveat: Products explicitly marketed for multiple seasons or other seasons do not count (eg. ""Christmas oranges"")."

  • Prep: warm water
  • Razor: Gillette Sensor (modern version)
  • Blade: Gillette Sensor 3
  • Brush: my hands
  • Lather: Hawkins & Brimble - Elemi & Ginseng shaving cream
  • Post Shave: Natura Siberica ASB gel

This was, in comparison to yesterday, a freaking awesome head shave!

I did it before my late shift. 1 pass and done. For this modern version of the Sensor, they actually put one 3-blade cartridge with it and it's quite enjoyable (although already kinda overkill for my skin). It did a way better job than the awful KCG.

Today I also tested my theory and just used my wet hands to hydrate the lather from the H&B shaving cream. It also works well! So in a pinch, this cream is also a good travel option if you forgot to take a brush with you. I still really like the scent and my scalp also agrees with it. So that one was truly a bargain!
