The One Soap One Month Challenge!

Man you guys talking about Eufros, makes me want to go back to me ATG LE. I gave my tub of Tobacco and Fougere away to two of my friends (to appreciate wet shaving) I should have another tub of fougere in my stock though.
Yardley is performing well. I enjoy the masculine yet crisp fragrance. It isn't overly musky or heavy. IMO slickness is the only aspect that could be improved. It doesn't lack cushion or post shave goodness. A good soap, Tabac and Old Spice are better performers IMO.

Lann the titanium 0.95 would be ideal for you.

Well this month is going well, shaving about 3 times per week. Still loving the Rowl !! The Oriental Plum soap is a great performer and the scent is lovely.
The wilkie is still shaving well and showing no signs of giving up yet.......
But the surprise is the TR-1 this razor is a fantastic performer, much better than I remember. 2 passes gives a very good shave with no irritation. Sort of like the Guerrilla on steroids. I am enjoying my time with this set up and have decided what is up next month..........
I'm bowing out half way through the month, time to crack open some autumnal soaps.I wouldn't mind but I've currently only got 3 products to choose from
Oh well, try again next month
What is next months choice?

Well I have decided to retire the TR-1 and the Rowl early. The Rowl has been in use since I got it, the brush is perfect for me in every way but I don't want to wear it out do I 
The purpose of using the TR-1 for an extended time was to see if the razor was a keeper or not. After 3 weeks use I can say it's staying, it is a cracking razor managing to be (for me) a efficient razor that is easy to get good results from even in daily use. This is what a good razor should be, top marks to the designer !!
The soap is staying for another week....
The razor for the next week is an Aristocrat #15 and a Vintage Simpsons Chubby 2.
Blade is still the Wilkie, but I have a NOS Eversharp to keep the British blade theme going..........

Having realativly few funds for shaving, this is what I have done pretty much naturally. I started with Proraso red, and also tried their others. Then the local Finnish brand Razor Master, from there to Haslinger, eventually mixing the the latter two to make my own Frankensoap.
Now I’m throughly sold on Tallow and Steel and have been really happy just using their West Indies soap.
Soap is enough of a skill that I don’t see the point in not sticking with one in any case. It’s part of the joy dialing that in and skipping around would be a distraction for me.

The joy of shaving for me is in the changes and soap is a big part of that. Tallow & Steel are fantastic, I'm a big fan of North American soaps generally. Razor Master, I have Uula and it's a fantastic soap.
