    Default How's your Philtrum?

    Just learned a new word today, and since it's sort of shaving related, I thought I'd share it:

    Philtrum: (noun) The vertical groove below the nose and above the upper lip.

    Always an issue, as mine is quite deep, tho I too only learned what it's called recently.

    I no longer go XTG with the philtrum as it is too risky. Two WTG and one ATG is fine.

    I only learned the word a few years ago. My young niece questions everything and asked what it was called so we had to find out!
