Killing Varen: Operation Inferno, we're getting there

  • Brush: Stirling Soap Co. Zenith Boar Brush 31mm × 50mm
  • Razor: Weck Hair Shaper (green translucent scales)
  • Blade: Kismet Rostfrei, Polymer beschichtet
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. Varen
  • Aftershave: Stirling Soap Co. Varen
  • Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Co Spearhead! Heather

No pic this time, wasn't inspired yesterday evening.

After today's shave, there's only a little smush of soap left that I've collected in the centre of the tub. I'll wrap this up after Tabac Tuesday.

Varen + Heather is underrated. Heather has this gentle, almost (but not) sweet scent, and you'd think it'd get eclipsed by Varen's powerful blast of oakmoss and forest floor. Instead, gentle Heather takes the edge off Varen and combines with it into a soft, lively green scent.
