I bought some of this the other day cos it was the only thing in the shop and dirt cheap. So impressed that I was about to post a thread, but I see the secret has been out for some time now!
Palmolive Shaving Cream
- Thread starter polaris
- Start date
It looks a bit different to what I’m used to. Did they change the design or is this the UK version?
Ordered it 3 hours ago from Amazon and it shipped already!
seems to be what the UK version looks. Mine is the same as from cotedupy
Not a UK version. A year or two ago Palmolive changed their logo. No longer the leaves above the "O" and a different font. The one on @cotedupy 's photo is the last logo.
Sounds like we need a SOD thread for this. Anyone up for Palm[olive] Sunday?

It’s about time we had a thread dedicated to the use of Palmolive shaving cream. This cream is widely available in supermarkets and pharmacies around the world. It’s quite possibly the best bang for your buck shaving cream on the planet. Despite its humble price tag, the performance is...

It's a nice shaving cream, menthol is just right.
But 8$??? No way.
75g tube in Montenegro is abot 1.5€

I thought Palmolive was also very popular in Bulgaria and Poland. I received it from a Bulgarian friend of mine - he sent me a Classic and Menthol cream as well as two terrific Bulgarian creams which were Top Ten Sensitive and Viking Sensitive.

There was a Romanian Factory manufacturing 65ml of all 3 varieties. It closed in December 2008. Around 2009 all Palmolive shaving creams disappeared from our supermarkets. Same applies to Poland. They had the old Romanian creams left in one brick-and-mortar store when I was there in early 2011. Later in October I went there again and it was nowhere to be found. If we want to buy them we have to order from Romania. They currently market Classic and Cool 65 ml made in Italy, but only for the former Yugoslavian republics and Romania. And I can assure you the Classic is not the same as the Italian red classic. The Italian smells much stronger.

Sorry Rick ! Kind of missed your main point blabbering about factories and product versions.
Palmolive tube has never been a popular cream in Bulgaria. That is why they stopped marketing it here. It was more than twice the price of Karo and 65ml. Karo and Top Ten are 100 ml. Many people here hardly have money to pay their electricity bills.
Around 2009, just before Alen Mak went bankrupt there was information in the papers that Karo had 65-70% market share.
