    Tabac Tuesday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #391 Synthetic
    Gillette New Standard Tuckaway
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Tabac ASB

    The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #391 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette New Standard Tuckaway with a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 4
    Storybook Soapworks Elysium SS
    Fino ASB
    Groom AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    It’s very easy to overload your brush with this Elysium soap - in fact I don’t think you need more than ten swirls to get a great lather, and me like a shmuck I did twenty five swirls so it turned out to be a big waste of good soap because the lather was flying all over the place. The scent is very nice - there seems to be a bit of peppermint in it with some other notes I cannot describe accurately. The only thing which seems this soap needs is a bit more slickness, otherwise it’s great. The Fino balm felt very moisturizing as well as super soothing, and the Groom aftershave which is made right here in Montreal has a lovely barbershop scent and goes on with no sting whatsoever. Three passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave!

    Simpson 'The Colonel' - Le Père Lucien Cèdre-Orange - Fatip Slant OC/7 O'Clock Super Platinum - Segno EDP

    It's St Patrick's Day....I have managed to get some leave (Although the neighbours are looking at me suspiciously).......and 12 years ago today my wife and I became an item!
    We can't even go anywhere to celebrate.It looks like it will be a quiet night in with some Wine/Guinness (delete where applicable)
    I mainly use SE razors but I like Fatip DEs and when I heard that they had released a slant......I had to get one. Today was it's inaugural outing and I was not disappointed.
    3 passes for a perfect finish....although I could have stopped at two

    •Lady Gillette
    •1950s Silver Star "duridium" blade
    •London Morning soap

    Nice 3 pass BBS. Smooth stainless is good but nothing like the refreshing feel of a good carbon blade slicing whiskers.
