It's a shame that I can't buy them for the same price in the states that one would pay in India!India now owns the Yardley name, and I believe Pond's and Helene Curtis as well , so India has a tremendous output of talcum powders , none of which are cornstarch that I can find.

true......... but shop around in local Indian markets , you may find a decent price , and several brands to choose from.It's a shame that I can't buy them for the same price in the states that one would pay in India!
I didn't think about that, there are a couple Indian markets near me I could check out that haven't been to in awhile!true......... but shop around in local Indian markets , you may find a decent price , and several brands to choose from.
Been awhile, so I thought I should post where I currently stand in terms of talc.
English Leather is quite a bit better than Gold Bond ever was. But Borotalco... is something else altogether.
It is finer (i.e., less granulated), smells better, works better, lasts longer. Borotalco is amazing.
I don't miss Gold Bond at all now. Borotalco all the way.
I wonder if it has anything to do with me buying three cases of it containing 6 bottles 300g bottles each?Imperial Leather has jumped up $5 in price on Amazon
Any chance that you get the Italian stuff in the States? Roberts Borotalco, Spuma di Sciampagna, Felce Azzura, Milmil?Strike "Anti-Monkey Butt" off the list....just rec'd a pkg with it today and they have gone "talc-free"
We cant have anything nice.....

Amen. I am SO SICK of "everyone" being more concerned about my health than I am! I always order milk in a dirty glass just to get a rise out of my waitperson!Strike "Anti-Monkey Butt" off the list....just rec'd a pkg with it today and they have gone "talc-free"

I will do a little digging; a quick Amz search showed the Spuma was $17 for 8 oz (225 gr)…that is not a lot of product to keep the lads swinging freely in hot humid weatherAny chance that you get the Italian stuff in the States? Roberts Borotalco, Spuma di Sciampagna, Felce Azzura, Milmil?
Not sure if we covered this already but there is scentless talcum powder available in 2.2 pound buckets and bigger. Now I have no clue how you would scent it but that amount would give you some space to experiment.Another 1st World Problem whine - it appears that those that bulk purchased Imperial Leather Talc were prescient....as it has been disco'd
I even made trips to 2 diff Indian grocery stores next town over...none to be had. I did pick up 2 tins of Yardley Gentlemen Classic...real deal
It is a bit flowery, but the real talc is instantly noticeable vs corn starch
