    Default Shaving Soaps in Europe

    Heu guys I'm traveling around Europe for the next month or so and wanted to know what brands are good to buy. I have some tabic and picked up another called denim and that's nice. Any other cheap but good soaps/creams out there.

    From most supermarkets you'll find everyday brands like Nivea and Florena shaving creams and Tabac shaving soaps. Body Shop sells Maca Root shaving creams (never been but at least that's what their website says). Old Spice (aftershave) is available 'almost everywhere'. Many make-up shops (or whatever they are called) sell at least l'Occitane.
    But probably most countries have bit different selections. Remember that brands such as Axe are for teenagers.

    If you are going to England pick up some Palmolive shave sticks , they seem to be cheap like borscht over there and are good.

    If you are getting old spice, you should also get hai karate and brut to complete the 80's trifector.

    Speaking of Old Spice, there is also a shave cream in a tube under that label but I don't know if it is available in Europe.

    In Germany: Klar seifen. The Kabinett smells good from roses.
