        I use it when I have a little extra time and want to enjoy the extra finish that talc gives. Talc dries moisture but its effect is to leave a silky smooth feeling on the skin. This is especially nice if you have used an aftershave that leaves the skin shiny and a sticky.

    It’s Magic! Fou Fri 08 Nov 2024

    • Brush: Zenith 506B MB (27 mm × 51 mm Manchurian badger)
    • Razor: Eversharp-Schick Hydro-magic (I2, NOS)
    • Blade: Personna Injector Blade
    • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company Seaforth! - Heather
    • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company Seaforth! - Heather
    • Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company Seaforth! - Heather

    I’ve planned a run through all Spearhead scents over the next few days (It’s going to be a trickholecentric week for me), and I’m starting with soft, powdery Heather. Looking at my tower of Spearhead tubs, I’m a bit taken aback by how many of them were absolute hits for me. My least favourite one is Roman Spice, and I really like that one too 😄. I remember my first use of Heather was also my first time competing in the Lather Games four years ago. Good memories. This scent manages to be green and lively without any of the sharp edges of a Fougère Classique, Brut, or Varen. Just happy, butter smooth, vernal green.

    Today’s shave was a bit too early for my taste, so using a childproof extra mild Hydro-magic was fitting. The slightly scrubby Manchurian knot in this Zenith is perfection. No notes.
