Finally the fog is back, companion of a very suggestive frost.
While I was shaving I reflected on the fashions that, today, rule. In all fields.
Who wears, today, a garment that does not have a logo, even if unknown?
Those who build cars tend to hide door handles, but make sure that the name of the factory is as visible as possible.
And here you can see the extremes of a promotional campaign, more or less surreptitious.
But trends are not limited to promoting a brand, but also how one wears a suit, what one drinks: no sector is immune to it.
Even in a niche area, like wet shaving has its own: a new soap, a new razor or a new type of brush.
And even here, we have our trends: have you noticed that it's becoming fashionable to list the components of the set up on the photo instead of on the text?
And I don't know why: is it easier to do it? Faster?
I don't know: technologically I am less prepared than a goat. But I am very curious!
This morning, after briefly observing the soap tray, I preferred a soap that no longer has the scent of almond, but only a scent of soap of the old days: very pleasant that makes me feel a sense of cleanliness that goes well with facial cleansing.
And, as usual, it was a long time and repetitive ritual, but definitely captivating...
