or how a shaving soap changed the my world….
And friends can smell BS a mile away.

| Patchouli Nectar Shaving Soap |
Something is missing, I don’t know what it is, but it just doesn’t feel right, I miss how that bar feels on my skin, I miss that feeling that I’m doing something extra for myself, because I’m worth the extra effort, most of all, I miss that smell……
I know what you’re thinking, “Patchouli is so strong!”
Well, this isn’t your mother’s patchouli, (my mom was a hippie, wasn’t yours?) and it’s not that “Summer I spent with the Grateful Dead” patchouli, (*for that story you’ll have to wait for my book deal) this is a fresher, cleaner, grown-up version.
The kind that says, “I may smell like Patchouli, but I shave my armpits”
On a side note, according to the website, the apple martini scent is “like a first date” and the vanilla pudding soap is “like a first kiss”, (see I’m not the only one with these kind of metaphors) Well if that’s true, then let me tell you, the patchouli nectar is “like going to third base!” It’s lock-the-front-door-and-take-the-phone-off-the-hook! (put it on silent)
You get where I’m coming from? It’s a sexy, sultry, smell, the kind that makes you think, “hey if my legs weren’t so hairy, I’d invite someone in the shower with me. …”
Now back to those hairy legs…..
For those of you that have never used a shave soap before there’s something really indulgent about using this in place of your regular shave cream or gel or lotion.
There’s two ways to use this, and I’m not talking about wet or dry, I’m talking application. Those pepperoni pizza-like bumps? There’s a reason behind them, and it’s not cellulite, (although no one would fault you if it just happened to smooth out your thighs.) Those bumps are for relieving stressed muscles, so give your self a little leg massage.

| shaving brush $8.99 |
Here’s the indulgent part. Get yourself a shaving brush,
like the kind your dad used to use (or your husband)
and brush that soap from a light frothy lather into meringue like a lemon pie.
Shave your legs, you’re going to feel as if you’ve given them a facial! Feel how soft they are, go ahead have a little love affair with your legs! Appreciate how wonderful they feel.
Once you’re done,you can rinse it off, or you can do as I do, and just rub in the left over as if it were the most luxurious moisturizer for your legs, (because it is), and then close your eyes, and inhale that gorgeous scent again.
So I guess it’s obvious, I’ve got a thing for this shaving soap.
I’m hooked!
It took me a while to let it sink in, which is why I posted all the mini video posts before this.
just because I play hard to get, doesn’t mean I’m not going to tease you every step of the way!
I’m happy to say it was worth the wait.
Every minute of it.
Would I lie to you?
