Love the picture. That's a Beautiful Ender's too. And that sounds like an amazing scent.
Thanks, and Mega Flora is indeed an exceptional fragrance.

Tabac Tuesday's Shave

[Image: cws.png]
Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #206 2-band Badger
Original TNNSER
Personna Gem SS PTFE SE
CWR
Tabac ASB

The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #206 2-band badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Original TNNSER razor with a Personna Gem SS PTFE SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Cold Water Shave
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Famillia
Soap: CR Salter Indian Sandalwood
Razor: Yaqi SE
Blade: Perma sharp half blade (3)
Post shave: Cold water rinse, TC's Bay Rum splash #1
Balm: Barts Balm Rosemary and Sandalwood Balm & Lotion
Aftershave: Proraso Red
[Image: Wk-33-3-Tues.jpg]
The blade went off very quickly, it was on its 3rd shave, however, the last couple of shaves were 1 pass and touch up, i can usually get 2 smooth, 3 pass shaves from one of these, i am not sure, although i think the blade gap highlighted this even more. I also picked up a nick on my chin on the 1st WTG pass? its been a funny week. The nik stick quickly sorted that out.
So, 3 passes for a close BBS finish, i can say this is a very efficient and quite aggressive razor for me, i much prefer the ECO, even the Rocnel SE is no where near as full on.
I needed the Barts Balm face medic as i did get some indication from my initial splash, everything started to calm and then a splash of the Proraso Red, giving some Whoo Hoo feeling and everything calmed back down,
The Yaqi has been cleaned and boxed and placed in the bottom drawer (rarely used razor drawer).
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.
