Wow...the body needed more sleep than I thought.
Slept a crazy 10 hours last night, and now I’m super enjoying my Tuesday off from work.
Wifey also happens to be off, so she handled the baby in the early morning. (Which is why I got to sleep-in so long).
Took my time and enjoyed a super long shower (which I normally never do), and had a crazy nice bowl lather.
This PAA “Blue Samhain” is soft and lathers incredibly well. And because of its softness, I use the synthetic brush with it, which gives me the perfect duo.
The soap scent is incredible and soft/smooth to the nose. But the splash is considered an aftershave and cologne mix...which makes the scent strength super strong and almost too harsh.
So a trick I do for splashes with super strong scents, is to squirt enough UNSCENTED balm in the palm of my hand (enough to cover my face and noggin), and then place a small amount of the splash in the same palm, and then rub my hands together to mix them well.
THEN I apply the mixture to both my head and face.
It works perfect, and gives me a very controlled amount of scent evenly distributed.
Anyhoo...shave today was spectacular with my custom Koraat.
Head and noggin are ready to meet the world.
