Tuesday morning:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Rapira day 9
MSC Vintage Spice SS
Aveeno Moisturizer
MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash

Oh my God what a friggin awesome soap and aftershave this Vintage Spice is - my dear brother Fernando really nailed it when he created them because as I mentioned before many times the scent is the beautiful fragrance of the discontinued Shulton Old Spice which I love so much. The soap’s tallow formula gives it such magnificent lather that’s so thick, rich, creamy, slick as well as cushiony and protective along with a soothing, comfortable postshave feeling. The Aveeno moisturizer is unscented so it can’t interfere with the gorgeously scented Vintage Spice aftershave. Three swift passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave that I enjoyed from start to finish!

Have a great day - be well and stay safe!

Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap

Tabac ASB

The Tabac Shaving Soap Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #206 2-band Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Pal Injecto-Matic Razor and a Vintage Pal Hollow Ground Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I will have to keep it on my want list, Master soap Creations does make some fine soaps. I have their Musketeer Rapier and the "Green" two excellent soaps and a few other samplers also I have not used yet.

 

thank you Jeff.

 

DE SOTD, Tuesday, June 20th 2023

Razor : Yaqi Mellon head 316 SS 2nd Generation or V2 with a polished SS "Teardrop" handle- Mfg 2023, tame mid to mid range, excellent machining and finish QC is adequate for my shaving needs. This dual comb is a nice razor with the old concept from the "Grande Shave King" razor idea. The idea is to rinse more often by trapping water in the Dual combs when bringing it to beard area by rejuvenating the lather to make it slicker. It does work, V1 model (Zamac) works slightly better for self lubricating because it seems to trap a little more water IMO. Regardless the razor works very well and is permently in my rotation. The audio feed back is very enjoyable I find(Sizzling sound). Had a close comfortable shave this morning with no issues.
Blade : Personna red(1) sharp & smooth with great longevity.
Soap : Razorock XXX, nice unique clean scent with excellent lather qualities. On 3rd tub!
Brush : Yaqi "Red Zebra" 26mm snow Leopard knot, Excellent lather generator, heavenly luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lathe painter. This 26mm brush is one of my favorites, ticks all the boxes for my shaving needs.
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 XXX with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=Excellent shave & no issues with my Yaqi Mellon V2 316 SS with a Personna red blade.

Have some great shaves!
