Share your shave of the day!
Oh wow! This was my first time trying a MacDuff's soap, and it's a delightful base! So easy to load a gooey protolather and hydrate it to a dense, creamy, drippy lather. I really slept on this one.
Today is the third meeting of our Buena Vista Wetshaving Social Club, and we have picked @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social's submission of MacDuff's Old Strathcona. Thank you Sahenders for the generous smush! The scent is a pleasant Barbershop scent of the Barrbarr kind. Both Barrbarr and Old Strathcona have a prominent note that I perceive as anise, but neither have it listed. It's maybe some combination of Rosemary/Terragon and Basil playing a trick on me?
Ether way, the scent is really pleasant and combined well with Barrbarr, but the star of the show is the soap base. I've rarely had such a wonderful lather on the first try with a new base. Really dense and protective feeling lather. I need to kill a tub to make room for MacDuff's.
Great BVWSC meeting, great shave!
