🌊 As a salute to my Trooper Tribute, today’s shave brings us back to memories of a classic barbershop on Mid Cape. The creators at Subtle Art Soap Co., led by a U.S. Coast Guard veteran, crafted this amazing blend to teleport you right back to that cherished barbershop chair. The Mid Cape Barber is a masterful mix of bergamot, lemon, lavender, a hint of mint, and a robust base of cedarwood, sandalwood, musk, and amber. It’s like stepping straight into a barbershop with every shave! 🪒🌿

🧼 Using just a small scoop, I whipped up a thick, yogurt-like lather with my trusty @Misticbrush, perfect for a smooth, triple-pass shave. But look at this leftover lather in the pic — I could go for six passes easy! That’s what I call trooper efficiency! 🌟

🪒 For the shave, I paired it with my classic Gillette Tech razor and a sharp Nacet blade to honor the traditional vibes of this phenomenal scent.

💥 This scent isn’t just a fragrance; it’s a journey back in time, and it’s quickly ranked as one of the top barbershop scents in my Grooming Garrison. Join me in celebrating the art of shave with #SubtleArtSoap this week. 🎖️

🔔 Don’t forget to tune in for our upcoming Q&A with the makers behind these stellar scents! Until then, stay sharp and keep those blasters—and razors—ready!
