    Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #423 Two-band Badger
    Darwin-Handle Gillette Old Type
    Personna Super (72)
    CWR
    Tabac After Shave

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #423 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Darwin-Handle Gillette Old Type and a Personna Super Blade (72) gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    King C. Gillette Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Derby day 2
    De Vergulde Hand SS
    De Vergulde Hand ASB
    De Vergulde Hand AS Spray

    This De Vergulde Hand is the oldest soap in the world - it’s 469 years old and for a very reason - it’s absolutely FANTASTIC. It’s as cheap as chips but the performance is much better than many soaps which cost much more. I love the classy, old school scent, the lather is a pleasure to work up, it’s so slick as well as cushiony so it gives good protection, and it’s so gentle on my sensitive skin. The matching balm and aftershave spray have that same gorgeous scent and they’re great in the skincare department. The Netherlands has lots of awesome shaving products but VGH is the best known. Smooth as silk from three passes - what a terrific shave this was!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and safe![​IMG]

    Razor : Yaqi SLOPE 316SS slant head with a Yaqi brass nickel handle- Mfg 2023> nice milder slant, use a Kai SS to bump it to a tame mid range like I do. Machining and finish OK for my shaving needs. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Kai SS extra wide blade (2) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
    Soap : Razorock The dead sea- nice unique bright clean scent with excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Goblin" 24 mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Razorock The Dead Sea splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : Dial 10.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi SLOPE slant with a Kai extra wide blade.
