Tabactober 27th. Still using Tabac soap.

Would you mind sharing a photo of your puck?

I've had this puck for many years. IIRC, it became deeply dished, so I broke it up and pressed it flat again using a fork. This is what it looks like after 127 shaves, plus however many it had on it when I got it from B/S/T.

October 27:

OCtober is almost over and it was time to use my other open comb razors. Therefore, today I switched to my Game Changer .84 OC. Very nice razor but too much for daily use for me. Paired with a Treet Dura Sharp, 2 passes were enough for a super close shave. As far as lathering is concerned, it was also time for some fun! Face lathering Tabac with a huge boar (Omega 10098). I loaded too much (almost 20'') and had lather for another shave. I am not particularly fond of waste, but it is pleasant every now and then.

Happy shaves everyone and have a great Tuesday!

It's still STR8 Tabactober for me and I've got a new whisker-removing tool: Focus Slim AL R28-3. The first shave with it (and the last with this particular brush, it's going to a new home).
It's very light and nimble albeit less assertive than my other half-DE driver (Chinese 'kamisori'). Quick 2-pass DFS ensued.

Tabactober 28th. Tabac cream today just for something different.

Still using Tabac soap every day. This week it's a Maggard synth brush, Tabac in an old OS mug, Timeless OC razor with an Astra SP going on it's third week of daily shaves and Tabac AS splash (most days).

Must have gotten used to the scent as I barely notice it anymore while shaving. The AS lasts a good long while. Working from home everyday has its perks as I could never use the AS and go into the office.

DE: 15c
Blade: Derby
Soap: Tabac Original Shave Stick
AS: Tabac Original

Good shave, a few weepers, and one blemish that I took off on the chin that I knew was going to be a problem. I always break out this time of the year due to the change in temperatures. NBD.
