ON GROOMING - DAD'S SHAVE!
Hello Blackbirds! Today's June 2nd and to get the countdown rolling, we've got 17 days until we land on Sunday, June 19th, AKA Father's Day here in the US of A. So don't worry, you've still got plenty of time to track down the right gift for the man that helped make you, you, but it's never too early to start lookin' around. And here in the Apothecary, we'd like to take a little bit of that burden off your shoulders in presenting you a flurry of shave options perfectly suited for that dad of yours. Heck, they're perfect for any man! Without further adieu, here goes installment one:
Shaving Cream
URSA MAJOR- STELLAR SHAVE CREAM 150 mL
Something nice and piney for wood-lovers everywhere. Also perfect for shave lovers and lovers of the environment, Ursa Major's rockin' Stellar Shave Cream is 99% natural and offers one of the most fortifying lathers known to man. Big ups.
$21
EDWIN JAGGER - TRADITIONAL SHAVING SOAP
in Sandalwood
Traditional shaving soap lasts for-freaking-ever. I've gotten over a year out of one bar and it's still going strong. [Note: Req. shave brush, see coming post]
$8
PORTLAND GENERAL STORE - WET SHAVE JELLY 8 oz
in Tobacco
Hate it or love it, tobacco's a flavoring not often used for shave products. Portland General Store came along and changed that, offering a Tobacco wet shave jelly that really does the leafy product justice. Subtle, herbal, and unique, this stuff's worth checking out for something a little bit out-of-the-ordinary. Patch and gum coming soon. Just kidding.
