    Default omega

    I have just got a tube of omega, the consistency Is completely different to the stuff in a bowl. I thought it was all the same. They both work well but I am confused as to why the tube one would be considerably thinner than the bowl one. Obviously the thinner product is easier to get out of a tube.

    I think you nailed it ED. Thinner because it has to be.

    You are probably right, i have never had a product in a tube and a bowl before. The bowl one is more like the consistency of vaporub whereas the tube product just fell out when I inverted it.

    Can't say I have had any shave creams in a tube that just fell out when inverted. That does sound a bit odd.

    It seems fine now, and producing wonderful lather to boot.

    I glommed on to a tub at a local grocery/specialty store for six american clams - what a bargain. It has been in the closet for months, waiting patiently, and I just got around to it. Quite a nice, very fast lather. Not much eucalyptus scent, Ed. What about the tube?

    Omega. Who knew?

    the tube just ran out, but the tub is still going, when i run all of the other stuff down that i have i will buy more omega, though i think i will stick to the tub variety, i think you get less waste than with tubes where you tend to squirt out a bit more than you really need.
    I also use a 1035 with my tub of omega, it is a nice brush, the omega 10098's are good too, they have a really quite high loft, and a fairly long handle, pricewise they are about the same. the omega brush does stink at first though, I got the omega brush with the cream for about $20 US i think.
