Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,628
Hendrix Classic & Company is a Vendor I've seen used by others and been curious about for awhile but with me trying to cull soaps down some, they fell into the category of I'll try them eventually but there are so many companies out there now. Imagine my delight when I saw a couple samples in the mix passed to me by
ewk and
mrdoug. My choice was peppermint this morning as I've seen a few makers of this scent and it's been one I've wanted to try. I'm a spearmint guy but hey, close enough. Nice scent strength without being overpowering and a nice cooling effect grew with each pass of the shave. Soap lathered well and gave a nice protective lather with good slickness for the shave. You'll notice in the list of what I used today there is no aftershave besides use of Witch Hazel. I couldn't make up my mind as to what to use with it as the scent while not being strong after the shave and rinse, it was still lingering and in an enjoyable way. As I stroked my face while looking in the mirror and contemplating the AS I realized how soft my face felt and thought.....Face feels nice and soft and I'm enjoying the lingering scent. We don't need no stinkin' aftershave. Happy to try HC&C and this scent is on my radar as space in my soap stock has some openings for additions. Have a great day folks !!
