June 18th, 2025: "Canned Shave Goop featuring a Canadian pharmacy's intercom music playlist"
$discord
Theme: This shave cream and aftershave are both sold in a pharmacy local to me. The shave cream is terrible , I’ll probably throw it away before the next LG. I can’t believe people shave with this shit every day.
Challenge: Absolutely no energy for this today. Work has been way too much this week.
$FOF - Old Spice into 4711 is a really nice progression. The carnation, lemon, and jasmine from the splash blend nicely with the citrus in 4711. My only gripe is that I wish the scent of 4711 lasted longer. I swear it's pretty much completely gone after 15-20 minutes.
My $SELFCARE today was just getting a shave in. I am so exhausted, but at least tomorrow is a half day then we're spending the weekend at a rental cabin with some high school friends. I'm very much looking forward to that.
