Thread: Shaving Supplies From Turkey: Advice From World Travelers

I've got a Turkish grocery store nearby that has great ethnic food, and carries quite a few shaving supplies. I have to look for the kapo cream next time I'm stocking up on my yogurt. I also by my PeReJa Lemon cologne there .. A very nice aftershave splash, BTW.

As promised,
I managed to get my hands on a tube of Kapo. It was cheap, but had to pay the same again for shipping so ended up being £3.90 or so for a tube.

Boxing and tubing is cheap and flimsy. If you care about that sort of thing

Scent - pleasant powdery smell, but really not a strong scent. On lathering the scent was largely lost to my nose.

Easy to lather, produced a wonderful slick lather.

Will be buying this again, without hesitation. If it was stocked at a local corner shop, I would buy their entire stock.

They also do a sensitive skin version which I would like to try. The Kapo Classic did not injure my sensitive face in any way at all, but it would be nice to compare.

I have a competitor for Tabac

I have tried the sensitive as well now, in comparison, the classic has a much more pronounced smell (citrusy), the cream reacts the same though

I bought it on the bay, free shipping...
