Alright, so I have been noticing that the lower part of my neck is almost always irritated, and just the other day I noticed that the collar on my shirt covered it up. After reading some threads on the use of talc to "lube" shirt collars, needless to say I am curious. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this, and if so, could recommend a nice smelling talc to use. Was leaning toward clubman, but if it smells like clubman AS it might not work for me as that is something i rarely wear to work. Any ideas, info would be greatly appreciated!!
which talc

Also consider changing your laundry soap as that could be the cause more so than a collar rubbing on your skin.

My skin also has issues with laundry detergent but especially with fabric softener. If you are using a fabric softener, you might consider not using it and see how that goes.
If you are already using a free and clear detergent, try using less of it -- say half -- to see if that helps.

Nygel: I tried most of the talcs suggested in my thread, and I must say that Pinaud is the best!
I use Pinaud around my neck. Also have Gold Bond Menthol Talc which is nice when the weather heats up.

I use the menthol talc from IB, nice and cool, no smell really. Pinaud and gold bond are pretty overpowering sometimes. Also, pinaud seems to be more pink coloured in my opinion.
damn, you had to say the word didn't you, mentholNow I gotta track some down!
I was surprised no one mentioned it. It's nice. I use it on the "boys" sometimes.
That sort of talk is frowned upon here though. I'll leave it as that.
It's super nice in the summer when I clean my hair line up with the buzzer. Put some on the brush and dust it on! Instant cooling.
I use Jeris white talc around my neck and it works wonders. It has a mild smell, but doesn't clash with my aftershave or cologne.
For whatever it's worth, try the Clubman talc sparingly at first. My skin reacted really badly to it.
I use Clubman talc often. I like Gold Bond talc before bed to keep me cool and dry while I sleep.
Alternately, Avon Wild Country talc is surprisingly nice. Very fine and smells great!

Clubman talc I use daily, great stuff. While I have been here in Sint Maarten I ran across some yardly talc powder but was to cautious to giive it a go.
I use Clubman Talc in flesh tone. Blends better with the skin than white. Also just recently shipped in some Felce Azzura from Italian Barber.
