A good standby cream to have on hand.

Hey Mick, did you mean "Mennen"? Have seen it local, and keen to try it, the tag at the supermarket says Mennen, but brand name is Palmolive.

I stand corrected. I was going to add a question mark in brackets after the name, but I was 99% sure I was right this time . However, the stuff that is in Carl's picture is definately a local product.

Google Faulding shave cream and you find it's the same one, made in Brisbane.
They seem to leave Faulding off the box and tube these days and i find it works best if you make a lather on your face with it.
