Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #222 Synthetic
AliExpress Double Open Comb
Gillette Nacet
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Tabac After Shave
The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #222 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AliExpress Double Open Comb razor and the Gillette Nacet 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...

Brush: Trotter Handcrafts, Souls, T1 Manchurian
Soap & Splash: Ariana and Evans Strawberry Fields
Razor: The Razor Company Vanguard, mild
Blade: Aylsworth(1)
I can’t believe I went to 3 A&E meetups and never walked away with Strawberry Fields. A really fantastic scent. All is good though because this it just arrived sporting the classy updated label and it’s also in Ultima 2, which is absolutely an amazing base. The beautiful TRC Vanguard and my lost little soul Trotter topped things off for a fantastic start to the day. Have a great day everyone.

A tale of two shaves. Try as I may, I have not been able to get the Shave Den soap to work. After three tries using varying amounts of water and lathering time I’ve given up. In all cases the lather simply disappeared off my face before I could complete a pass. One pass of nearly unbearable tugging and I gave up, again. The second shave was delightful. 
Shave One:
Hot water preparation
The Shave Den Blue Floid Type Shave Soap
Romera Wenge Chubby Manchurian Badger
Dubl Duck Wonderedge 5/8
Shave Two:
Hot water preparation
Castle Forbes Lavender Shave Cream
Romera Wenge Chubby Manchurian Badger
Dubl Duck Wonderedge 5/8
Cold water rinse
Castle Forbes Lavender After Shave Balm
Happy shaving - Karl
