Now I have a problem when brushing up with TOBS, does anyone know if they use a lot of essentials oil or some kind of stuff that would give a slightly unpleasant stingy feeling when applying to your face? I am not at all quickly allergic to stuff, and have tried a trillion soaps. When I apply TOBS it feels like I have a slight razor burn but ... before the shave. Just wondering. I thought it was due to not resting my face long enough, but I haven't shaved for three days now (what a challenge!) so it's definitely not that. The last thing it could perhaps be is my brush, but I highly doubt that as I don't get that sensation with any of the other soaps.

Anyone experience anything similar?
This happens to me with a few products. TOBS Avocado cream is one of them. Some people have sensitivities to certain chemicals or combinations of chemicals, and it's almost impossible to tell which...

Try it again when you're having a good face day, but be prepared to write that one off.
