Another Mike-y shave in the middle of the week. One of the thing’s I like about Mike’s is how long the tubs lasts. This one I’ve had for… a decade? A little over a decade? Still retains the scent and still makes lovely lather.

Not exactly midweek madness, more like a Wednesday wonder. A big, fluffy brush paired with the right soap means big, fluffy lather. And that means a big, fluffy shave.

Digging in the back of the drawer this week – Prairie Creations was an artisan soap maker back when I got into wetshaving as a hobby, who have sadly since closed shop. Walter was her tribute / recreation of the traditional Williams Mug Soap, and while the scent of my puck has mellowed since I bought it the performance has not.
