Erasmic Shaving Cream...well, hello!

[dan86]

There are different versions of the same cream.
Different formulas.

About 18 months ago I found out the chemist around the corner from the house sells Erasmic shaving cream for the princely sum of £1. I picked up a few tubes to see what it was like. The one I bought was the silver tube with black cap as shown in rhtoras' post. I was impressed by how easy it was to lather. The scent was fine, like a classic soap my Grandmother would have had in the bathroom.

Supposedly the "old" cream formulation (red cap) is, or was until recently, still available in Jordan, the original country of manufacture for the cream before the new owner moved it to the EU. I haven't been able to find a source for it tho - the new stuff is okay but it pales in comparison to the Jordanian formulation.
