Monday's Shave of the Day

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Luxury Soap
Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger
Leaf Branch SHaDE Razor
Gillette Silver Blue SS Half Blade
Tabac After Shave Balm

This is my second shave of November, and my first shave with the Leaf Branch Single Half Double Edge razor (SHaDE). I thought I was buying a refill puck of Tabac, but it turned out to be Tabac Luxury Soap. I am hoping it will work for shaving, too.

The Tabac Luxury Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Leaf Branch SHaDE Razor and a Gillette Silver Blue SS Half Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (04.11.2026)

IMG_1398.jpeg
Razor: 1960 Gillette Fatboy // Blade: Gillette yellow // Soap: MWF // Brush: Simpson X2L best Badger // Aftershave: TFS Witch Hazel

What a mighty fine shave this was.

2,5 gentle and smooth passes on setting 6 which ended in a BBS finish. No words needed for this soap, it is among the best out there.

10 out of 10

Have. Great time, enjoy your shoes and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten
