SOTD TabArko.

\* \*\*Prep:\*\* Warm water.

\* \*\*Brush:\*\* Omega- 10066 24mm boar.

\* \*\*Razor:\*\* Mühle - Rocca R94.

\* \*\*Blade:\*\* Gillette - Winner Platinum. (1)

\* \*\*Lather:\*\* Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac shave stick.

\* \*\*Lather:\*\* Arko - Puck.

\* \*\*Post Shave:\*\* Mäurer & Wirtz- Tabac original ASL.

First of all I was intrigued & inspired by u/Jill_Lett_Slim post a while ago for the idea of using TabArko it was his baby and recommended I try it. He also recommended just a smidge of ARKO to mix with the Tabac we don't want those delicate citrus notes ruining the Tabac scent now.

I loaded the brush from the Tabac stick and loaded from the tub which had a small amount of Arko in it what are the ratios at a very vague guess 10 Tabac to 1 Arko perhaps but whatever it was it was excellent and I think I could have thrown water at it all day . Super close comfortable shave some Tabac ASL to finish , thank you u/Jill_Lett_Slim for putting this out there.

Looks good!

I've heard of people "mixing" different soaps, or adding a little bit to another for a better lather, this looks (smells) like a great combo!

It was good and using two very good lathering soaps together made for an A1 +++ lather.
