You Need TFS. ASAP.
Tcheon Fung Sing Now Available at Westcoastshaving.com
The name may sound unusual and hard to pronounce, but it comes from the company's founder—a brave man born in China. He came to Italy in 1930, was held in a refugee camp during World War II, and later married an Italian woman. After the war, he used his knowledge of soap-making to start producing shaving creams, following traditional, handcrafted methods.
On October 7, 1951, at the first Turin trade fair held in Piazza Vittorio Veneto, the Mayor of Turin awarded the company a Gold Medal Diploma for its shaving products.
Today, the business is still family-run and has been passed down through three generations. It’s now managed by his daughter, Gabriella Tcheon, and granddaughter, Paola Barile, who continue making high-quality, artisan shaving products.
Since its inception, TFS has respected the ancient art of soap production, using only vegetable based materials. The longevity of those soaps, produced without preservatives, is guaranteed by the handmade production process.
TFS exemplify tradition, passion, and innovation in wet shaving - an Italian excellence appreciated across the world. Try one or all of these must-have shave soaps from TFS:
Rich, Creamy Lather for a Smooth Shave – Produces a dense, cushiony lather that protects the skin, softens facial hair, and ensures superior razor glide, reducing irritation, razor burn, and nicks for a comfortable and close shave with safety razors or straight razors.
Classic Almond Barbershop Fragrance – Features a warm, inviting almond scent inspired by traditional Italian barber shops; the subtle masculine aroma leaves your skin lightly fragranced and refreshed after every shave, perfect for daily use.
Premium Natural Ingredients – Formulated with vegetable-based ingredients and enriched with almond oil to nourish and hydrate the skin, making it ideal for sensitive skin types and those looking for a moisturizing and protective shave soap.
Yolo: "You Only Live Once" is a fragrance that tells of the scent of burning wood, the aromatic smoke of burning tea leaves and tobacco.
What makes the YOLO shaving cream truly special is not only its ability to transform daily shaving into a ritual of pure pleasure, but also the high-quality natural ingredients that make up its core. Mango butter, known for its nourishing and hydrating properties, blends perfectly with shea butter, renowned for its soothing and protective abilities. This synergy creates a creamy and rich base, ideal for preparing the skin for the delicate shaving process.
But the magic doesn’t end there. Castor oil and argan oil, two pillars in the world of skin care, further enrich the formula. These oils, known for their emollient and regenerating properties, provide the cream with unmatched protection, reducing the risk of irritation and making shaving smoother and more comfortable.
This is not just a product. It is the expression of TFS’s dedication to pursuing excellence. The decision to reintroduce the YOLO shaving cream to the market with a completely renewed formula reflects the desire to listen to and respond to customer needs, proposing cutting-edge solutions in the sector.

From the moment the jar is opened, the top notes of orange and bergamot release a bright citrus breeze that awakens the senses and tones the skin. Within moments the heart notes emerge, where the velvety sweetness of vanilla intertwines with the powdery refinement of iris; anise adds a liqueur-like spicy touch, ylang-ylang softens with exotic sensuality and rose lends elegant floral depth. Supporting everything are the base notes: oakmoss and cedarwood build a reassuring woody foundation that lingers on the skin, wrapping the face in a discreet yet distinctive trail.
