Shaving Cream Acquisitions

[EclipseRedRing]

A gift from my wife from a brand she likes, Shiseido. I will pair it with my Feather AC and Kanebo Valcan aftershave for an all Japanese shave. I think this may be brushless, has anyone tried this cream?

Jack Black in a tube. I must say I'm pleased to see Old Spice from India being bought. I like it but can't figure out why.

Not what you expected good, or not what you expected bad, Pedigree? Just curious. Thanks, and have a great day!

Agreed, I was expecting candy cane or York peppermint patty but what I got was pure peppermint, like straight from the leaf.

Lathers wonderfully but go easy on the water until you get to know it.

Why is that? What makes it different then other TOBS creams? I do tend to use less water for more cushion AND slickness.

Then you'll be ok.

The Lime smells just like T&H West Indian Limes (but at a much lower price point), the Bay Rum smells unlike any bay rum I've ever sniffed and Sandalwood has a unique scent to it that is somewhat woody? Underneath those creams is a tub of the their unscented luxury cream. They had their creams heavily discounted.

 

[GFT et al]

I am just about finished acquiring jars to sample, but picked up a few tubes this week.

Cremo original, sensitive, sandalwood, and silver; Proraso red and blue; and Speick.

 

[Lather and Razors]

Just Arrived from Italy, these are exactly the same product as sold in the UK, Germany, Ireland.

I have yet to try Proraso in the tube but I love Proraso Green in the tub.
