Thanks again, Henry. I guess having a good exposure to natural light in my bathroom helps a lot.

That's my last shave with Tabac. I know, sacrilegious around here! I milled most of my puck into a stick but still had a little left over. I got rid of the stick but still had that small piece for a rainy day. Today was that day. I can get just as good lather with several other soaps and creams and my skin doesn't feel dried out. So into the trash it went! Relax you Tabacaholics, there was hardly any left!

The New Deluxe (like the New Improved) gives me DFS+ shaves with minimal irritation, but for some reason, the shave itself doesn't feel as nice. The blade feels so rough, whereas it feels soooo smooth in something like a tech (I use feathers)
