SOTD – WED 14 SEP 2022

SEptember, AussieWednesday :Featured soap is WashPool Supply Co. - Shave Soap Puck #01, scented with Essential Oils of Bergamot (Bergaptene-Free), Cedarwood, Patchouli.

Shave Result: WashPool puck is quite pliable so easy to slice a small portion off (about 2.0gm) and squashed it into the bottom of my lathering bowl, then proceeded with my normal bowl lathering procedure. As I rate WashPool a serviceable performer I also added some Proraso White cream to boost the lather (Super-Lather). Resulting lather was rich and creamy with excellent performance. As expected the scent is a very pleasant woody lemon green aroma, scent strength 6/10. The RazoRock Hawk V2 gave a wonderful smooth efficient close DFS.

...and that's the end of the Indigo Oud. A bit of a outlier for me, but it's good to have a change.

I thought my own personal little raincloud had lifted, but apparently only a little. (Pic is a little section of the view from my front verandah.)
