Thread: What Cream Should I Buy Next?

Acca Kappa?? EJ Sea Buckhorn is fantastic!

While not a top shelf cream based on cost, I absolutely adore the Palmolive cream. The scent isn't bad and it will linger for a few hours but will be noticeable by you alone. It has amazing cushion & glide. It should also run you $3-4 at your local chemist/drug store/whatever you call such things down under.

Get some Castle Forbes.

+1

the palmolive punches way above it's weight and everyone owes it to themselves to try it for the sake of very little money compared to the other creams out there i have all sorts of posh soaps and creams and i rate the palmolive with the best of them. If you can get the hold of the palmolive sensitive with aloe vera, it's maybe even a little better. Just managed to get some posted over by a friend in europe, great if you have sensitive skin.

Another great inexpensive cream to try is Godrej. Has a kind of Barbasol/baby powder scent, but has some of the best, richest lathers you will ever find.Has lanolin also so it leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth.

Now that sounds nice, I do like creams with interesting names...

I'll also look up the Castle Forbes and other one, Acca Kappa...Thanks everyone for the suggestions...

Guys, at the risk of being annoying, where do you get your creams from? I've looked up all of these on the sites I normally use (those that ship to Australia) and can only find a couple of them. I normally frequent Italian Barber.com, menzbiz.com.au, vintagescent.com, straightrazordesigns and classicshaving.com.

Yeah? Serous? I used to use that before I 'saw the light' and changed from a Bic to a straight. I've always used cream (in a tube) not a can. Palmolive is rather 'mundane' for me...
