    Default TOBS Eton College shave cream

    Just tried TOBS Eton College shave cream for the first time this morning. I generally am a shave soap user but have to say this shave cream seems very nice to me. You don't need much product to produce good amounts of rich thick slick lather. It left my face feeling fine and the scent is very nice too. All this at a good price point. The only other TOBS product I have tried was Jermyn Street shave puck soap yesterday morning. Had a good shave with it too. All in all very nice shaving products.

    I agree with Bob about Eton College. It lathers well, needs a small amount of cream and very little water. Good product for the price.

    My preference in classic British Creams is: 1. Castle Forbes 2. Truefitt & Hill 3. ToOBS 4. GOT

    Buy a TOPS cream sampler and try about 12 different flavors for reasonable money. The small jars got me 4-5 shaves each...

    Tobs makes some great creams an AS. Eton college is one of my favs from them. I pair the cream an AS together. Makes for a great shave. I also agree with splashone. Try the tobs sampler. They have several great creams. Grapefruit is another to check out.

    Eton is great cream. I have others I am not crazy about the scent from Taylor of Bond but as a cream they all lather very well. Cushion and glide is nice and a little does indeed go a long way. Aftershave is nice too

    Just got my order in with some Boellis Panama 1924 and the two Tobs products to join what is in my wine cooler storage so I won't be needing more soaps and creams for a bit. If I get any soaps/creams I don't care for the scent of I give them to somebody who doesn't mind the scent.

    I am too stubborn. I have some castle Forbes cedar wood that I detest but keep trying thinking I am going to like it one day.

    Ditto on what everybody is saying regarding the little goes a long way.
