April 21st, 2026: Tabac Tuesday

• Brush: Grizzly Bay - Chisel & Hound v24 Fanchurian 26mm Badger
• Razor: GEM Damaskeene Closed Comb
• Blade: Personna GEM PTFE (1)
• Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac Original - Soap
• Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac Original - Aftershave
• Post Shave: Oleo & Co. - Facial Toner - Toner
• Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac Original - EdC

Close comfortable shave with no irritation. Now I'm all stanked up and ready for the day.

I think I like the closed comb Damaskene more than the open comb. It definitely seems more efficient. I'll have to do some more comparison when I have the open comb back in hand.

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

This was my first try of Draconis Aqua; a very interesting aquatic scent. I will be using this one a lot this season.

Also, this is my first use of a Rad Dinosaur Creations brush. I love the color scheme and the fit, finish, and ergonomics are top notch. I'm quite late to this party, but, terrific job u/Priusaurus!
