Someone say "RazoRocktober"?!?! I will use this as often as I can...Heck, I may even finish it before the month is over.

Shave 3: Black Hawk v1, Belenos shave oil and Nivea Sensitive ASB. Been having issues with this razor but got the best shave I've had with it so far.

OK, little bit of a stretch... but used my "Frankensoap" and it has Tabac in it.* A few hours after the shave, I did dab a little Tabac AS on my neck, too.

*The soap was made with 2 pucks of vintage Williams and 1 puck each of MWF, Tabac, and DR Harris' Lavender. I've got 3 of those Pyrex containers full of it, and I reckon they will outlast me.
 
My 2nd shave was with XXX duro again. I wasn't satisfied with the lather it produced last time with my Semogue 620. This time I used the Omega Pro 49 and it was much better but the lather still got quite thin (and much less slick) by the 3rd pass. Need to load longer next time I guess!

Soap: RazoRock XXX duro
Brush: Omega Pro 49
Razor: RazoRock German 37 slant
Blade: Astra SP (2)
Aftershave: Speick splash
Aftershave 2: Stirling Sharp Dressed Man balm

I committed to Tabactober and LoCtober. The choice on which to take for the daily shaves is mainly based on the weather and especially temperatures. For today, with somewhat warmer temperatures, I took Cade.

Razor: 34c
Soap: Occitane Cade
AS: Myrsol Agua
ASB: Occitane Cade
