Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger
Gem Pushbutton
Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Tabac After Shave
The Tabac Shave Soap was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger
Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem G-Bar and the Personna GEM SS PTFE 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...
I must admit I’m a little jealous of your Tabac Tuesday. I have never yet had opportunity to pick up the Tabac shave soap but always wanted to take the time to find some. Then people started saying they didn’t like the new formulation recipe some time ago already. Jayaruh, if you have tried them both do you find the newer Tabac much different? I am thinking of ordering some finally, but am uncertain if it is still the same stuff. How would you describe Tabac? Sorry to bug you with that. Thanks!
It took me a while, but I found my first shave with the Tabac. https://jrshaving.blogspot.com/2014/04/s...ay-45.html
I won it in a pif on April 1, 2014. It is one of a few soaps that I will replace. I noticed on my website tag bar that I have 581 tags for Tabac. That is a lot of tags. As for new and old formulations, I cannot tell. It is the same with Williams. I just lather up and shave with them. So every week I have a Tabac Tuesday and a Williams Wednesday. Get yourself some Tabac. You will love it. If you don't, I will gladly take it off your hands.
That is amazing that you have been keeping up Jayaruh Shaving all this time! That is just fabulous, and what a legacy item that will last pretty much forever. You need be applauded.
I read over your entry about receiving a Pif of Tabac back then and I think of all those years I have been procrastinating and remaining Tabac-less. Sigh. You have gently nudged me into the giant puddle of commerce on a hunt for Tabac. Thanks! And if it turns out to be misaligned with my taste, I will forward it to you for sure. (But don’t count on it!)
