Dan,

The experience that you describe with the Taylor cream for sensitive skin is common, but what has been mentioned about "inconsistencies" across the line can also be true. I have to say, however, that this is also true with T&H and the other brands. Sometimes it's a result of storage conditions during transit from the UK. I get my Taylor products direct from Taylor via FedEx and see variations from product to product, but not batch to batch within the same product.

What I would suggest that you try, as a way to remove this as a factor from your shaving routine, is to use a lather bowl. I have found this to be preferable to face lathering in general. (Forgive me if I've made the wrong assumption about your technique). Your can use your index finger to remove a portion of the cream from the tub; however, I prefer to use a small "butter knife" to take an almond sized portion and place into my lather bowl to build my lather. I find this method to produce better lather with less cream.
