Single pass WTG - a comfortably close shave. Some irritation in problem areas (chin, one place on neck) where I tried touching up too much. Wish I coulda got it closer on the chin and neck. Ditching the Taconic aftershave balm seems to have gone well.
I had been intimidated to use the Feather blade in this razor but I think it went alright. I think this shave maybe had the least amount of tugging so far, but still some on my chin. Maybe I should try a slant or open comb some day?
First time using Campania. It’s nice, very clean smelling, but a bit tame. I would rank it as my 3rd favorite stirling scent so far.

Winding down on the Gingerbread Man sample. The scent is okay; Stirling base is solid as normal.

Shave 9 of the brain bowl, first of the Atlas Shaves and was extremely pleased to find that MdC Fougere actually matches every single scent note. Although it is not Tallow and Steel or Himalayas, this will do just fine for day one. Here is to another month of ASSHOLE shaves! tagging u/AdWorried2804

Lorekeeper is really nice and worked well with Lonestar. I’ll probably also grab the splash at some point.
Starting off ASSHOLE2026 with an Air Bud. I have no Tallow + Steel in my den, and no soaps that match 50% of those notes. A diabolical first pick to start the month off.
