Shave talc?

[bythbook]

I dunno, dude. The battery looks really dense, but also really scritchy. Great handle...but...

ya gotta moisten it first, then roll it in the talc.... Keep it out of your nose, for safety - and roll it all over your face.

Feels great, esp. if you keep the battery in the freezer overnight.

Tried it w/ a 9-volt, but it didn't seem to roll right.

I bought a horse hair neck brush, so I can best dust the neck with Pinaud.

$15, so not so bad.

Neat, bump

I use Clubman talc often. I use a Proraso 48 brush.

Very light dusting cuts down on forehead shine and around the neck keeps you very comfortable. I use it more in summer

Bumping up an old thread as I bought a bottle of Pinaud Talc a while back and used it once or twice.

I honestly did not see much of a difference other that I had softer skin but I looked a bit like a ghost. I thought maybe I'm not using this properly. Maybe I should ask around...

This thread helped. I also read the following that helped:

• How do you apply your aftershave talc?
• Proper Use of Shave Talc
• Talc after the shave?
• Talcum Powder ?
• Talcum powder users?
• Let's Talk about Talc
• What is talcum powder for?

Sounds like I need to get my bottle of Talc out again!

I recently purchased two containers of the Pinaud talc. I really enjoy the scent it has and use around back and neck area.

I use Clubman “Shave Talc” occasionally- it’s basically very similar to the point of being unnoticeable except for a slight pinkness in color to regular Clubman talc powder. Maybe a more lime/lemon smell.
It just takes a shine down & smells/feels nice.
If you electric shave then you use it before, wet shave use it afterwards.

Great old thread!

Info on its purpose

I can imagine that would work well with an electric. Nice find!

 

[The situational shaver]

If you live in a region with a lot of humidity, it’s very useful.
When it’s humid, I use a plain alcohol splash,(mostly Clubman products) and after applying
the a/s, I let it dry, then tap a little talc on my fingers and rub into my face and neck.
It also keeps your collar from rubbing your neck. If there isn’t much humidity, then I
don’t need to use it. The right products for the situation.
