tabac irritation?

[gangaskan]

i'm new to tabac cream but what i wanted to know is does it irritate anyone else? my skin feels almost razor burnish after using it. this has been my second shave, new astra blade, and when i did pop some cream in my mug i did notice quite a bit of oil drop from the tube then the cream. not just a drop, but more like a quarter teaspoon or less.



could this be why? i'm just trying to figure out if it was me or the cream

Yes, it definitely could be the reason if that oil is concentrated fragrance oil that has separated from the cream. However, Tabac soap does cause mild irritation for me. I suggest using glycerin on your face as a preshave, or a preshave oil, prior to lathering up. That works for me to get rid of any irritation. Also, you might try squeezing the entire tube in a container and mixing it up. Just cover the container when you are not using it.

i'll try that thanks christhach

i put what i had in my arko bowl that was left over from my first shave and holy crap, it stained the puck! didnt smell much tabac though.


i do have some pre shave, dont use it a whole lot.
