Good morning friends. Excellent three pass shave today with the Schick Adjustable. Marvelous lather from the Tabac shave stick. I finished with Old Spice... smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

 

Thanks Jim ☺️

 

Tabac Tuesday's Shave

Thayer's Peach WH
Tabac

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #292 High Mountain White badger brush. I did two passes with the Gem Damaskeene Razor with a CVS Carbon Steel SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Outstanding Shave in every way as usual since Tabac Never Fails.

Awesome pic!

 

Along with that one, I'm seeing a tiny bit of the bottom of the Stoylin Barbershop soap. As for Local Gent, I'm torn between repeating with Fie;lds&Streams, or getting a different one(Cal Barber and The Cigar Lounge* look best to me).


*-or whatever that one is called.

 

Gorgeous shot @celestino! Great effect @ram57! Nicely done.

 

Beautiful colors my friend!

Another great shave with this pair, a 2 passes, WTG/ATG, with a clean up after each pass, a cold water rinse. Topped with a liberal amount of Mennen afte AS lotion. Feel great, a happy Camper. Wishing the sane for all. God Bless.

The "Perfector"/BIC . I was hoping one of my new handles would fit the quirky bottom plate but not. Fine, quite aggressive shaver.
