SOS: February 2025

Great Set up Chris..Nice to see the Omega big boar making an appearance.

 

Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #461 Synthetic
Ever-Ready Peerless
Personna Gem Stainless PTFE
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #461 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready Peerless SE razor and the Personna Gem Stainless PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thanks Barry, I am thinking I might use this on my MWF tomorrow rather than the smaller Pura Setola....

 

Give it a try Chris...I always try to mix up more lather than what I think I need when using my Omega 48 & 49 with MWF. My best lathering results with it to be honest is when I use my synthetic brushes. However, I like the feel of boars, especially when face/head lathering.

 

Tuesday morning:

Quick shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 14
Proraso White SS
Lubriderm Moisturizer
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash

Results:

Very good despite the Wilkinson blade being on its last legs.

Have a good day - be well and stay safe!

Thanks for your post. Do you like the German Personna Reds? I noticed a difference in the package. I have some Israeli Personna Reds. On them, the pack reads Platinum instead of Stainless Steel.

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (05.02.2025)


Razor: Pearl Flexi // Blade:Gillette Bleue Extra (18) // Soap: Tallow + Steel Boreal // Brush: Doriancrafts // Aftershave: Witch Hazel - Wild River Aftershave and Balm

A really relaxed and relaxing shave.

Today with Tallow + Steel…Boreal…an earthy, woodsy scent with notes of Birch and Spruce. Very nice.

It was lathered up with my Doriancrafts Brush which had no problems. Lather for more than 3 passes.

With setting 3 the Flexi could work it´s magic. The razor is so stunning…smoooooth and gentle that it is a pure pleasure to use, even with a blade in it´s (now) 18th use.

2,5 passes later i was smiling and completely BBS. Applied some Witch Hazel, followed by Wild River Splash and Balm. Imagine the scent of adventure and freedom, forest and meadow spreads and leave you happy. Great stuff.

10 out of 10

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten
