What is old for everyone here: Tabac. The good tallow version. When I first bought Tabac some months back, I was so disappointed. "But everyone said...." Turned out to be the new reformulated version. I wasn't going to buy a tallow version at first after the big disappointment, but then I broke down and did. It's my favorite now. I love it. And combined with the magic Speick aftershave I also bought...leaves a wonderful feel to the skin.
It's my Sunday go-to. A wonderful shave before mass, and my face feels great all day.
Additionally, I'm getting into the habit of using specific soaps on specific days (now that I have several soaps, which is new for me, as before I would just have one or two and use until finished). As I said, Tabac/Speick is for Sunday and usually one day during the week. Proraso green for menthol Monday. Thursday or Saturday is usually Proraso red. New Tabac (ugh) for Friday (a day of penance, so I use my worst soap). Not a rigid schedule, but you get the idea.
