Lathering Tabac

[Ron Scott]

I can't seem to get a bad lather off this stuff...

I typically wet the cake pretty well a few minutes before I start lathering. Then I hit the cake pretty hard for 45 seconds or so, and face lather from there.

Today I cut the time spent building up the initial lather on the cake to 20 seconds or less and I got the same great lather.

How do you guys do it?

I don't wet the soap beforehand , I just load a very wet brush onto the soap and face lather..

I was told Tabac lathered itself....
To be honest I only bowl lather with it and its huge.

+1 on not bothering to pre-wet Tabac and that it seems to lather itself. Some people report that Tabac is drying, but I find that it's really thirsty and that if I give Tabac lots of water it treats my skin well.

I use the shave stick and LOVE IT! It's one of my top 3 for sure. I face lather all of my soaps and I fully agree that Tabac is crazy easy to lather. I'll get the soap in the dish when my bank account recovers from my recent bout of RAD.

No need to pre wet the soap at all, just wet the brush a little then swirl in the soap and you'll be fine, Tabac doesn't need to be worked like crazy, it's super easy to lather.

Tabac is probably the easiest lathering shave soap available. Pretty much any lathering method will work. I just use a wet brush and load on the puck until I have enough to finish lathering on my face.

I use Marco's method--lots of product and water--works great.
