Thread: Looking at TABAC Shave stick. But I don't know what it is?

So, what exactly is a 'shave stick'? I've seen it in some SOTD posts, and don't really understand.

Can someone fill me in??

Thanks mates!!

Soap in stick form. Rub it on your wet face, the hairs will pull some off. Then take a wet brush and face lather. They're super handy for travel or for those who face lather and.

OH, I see. Thanks man! I knew there was a simple explanation, but it was totally missing me..

Best Always!!

Used a Tabac stick this morning (while on vacation) - fantastic. You should pick one up...and an Irish Moos as well!

I forgot it till I picked up my stick of MB Spellbound Woods, but she actually has a little tutorial on shave sticks up on her site.

Don't feel bad you won't be the last to ask this question.

Yep, what they said. I keep a stick of Tabac in my shaving kit. It's handy and it works great.

Try arko sticks too, they're pretty awesome.

+1 i picked up an arko stick a few days ago, that and the palmolive stick are tallow for next to no money.

I got a scuttle with twirls/ridges in the bottom - I add just a little water to the bottom, then let the stick sit in for a couple mins. Toss the water, run the stick across the ridges a little. Now I can easily use it like any other soap for bowl (scuttle) lathering.
