L'Occitane Cade shaving cream won't foam ??
Last week I was tempted and bought this L'Occitane Cade shaving cream. http://uk.loccitane.com/FO/Catalog/P...usg_MensCorner
I was really curious about it's scent and how it would feel on my skin. Still a bit shocked by the price I got home and I immediately prepared all the needs to create a nice lather.
I took my stainless steel Ikea lather bowl as usual and put a quite large almond of Cade shaving cream and kept on stirring for about 2 minutes....3 minutes.....4 minutes but still no sings of an up coming lather.....?
I tried at least half a dozen of combinations, to see if the L'Occitane cream was reacting with any material, so I used different brushes (badger, bristle), bowls (stainless steel, glas), added a few drops of pure glycerin but still no lather.
Flat as a dead beer and that is exactly how it looked. Reading the packaging again promising me and I quote: This cream transforms itself into a luxurious mousse" I started scratching my head.
Maybe this Cade SC is not for use on Tuesdays so I tried the day after but no changes at all.
I tried a few of my other shaving creams like ToOBS Sandelwood, Arko Lime (very nice for its price), Trumpers Violet and they worked just fine.
Am I missing something here? Is there anyone with similar experiences or used this shaving cream successfully?
Anyhow no L'Occitaine for me anymore. And the scent? Nothing special.
