I've been working my way through a puck of Tabac for a while now, and never had a problem.
I would think glycerine should be a fairly innocuous ingredient (but I could be wrong). My guess would be the angle/pressure leading to abrasion.

Its fairly simple. Just put the soap/cream on your face, and leave it there for 20 minutes. If you are having a reaction to an ingredient in the soap, your skin will show it even without shaving.
If there is no reaction, then you are exfoliating a bit too deeply!
I cant touch stuff with sandalwood in it. makes my face red and burns fierce.

This is actually sound advice. It must surely be the simplest way to see what is causing your problem.

I haven't shaved in 2 days and decided to try leaving the shaving cream on my face for 20 min without shaving. After 20 min I used the aftershave balm. 10 min. later I checked my face and saw red blotches around my cheek area. I guess strong scented shaving creams are a big for me. It's too bad I really like the scent.

Sorry to hear that. The good news is that you should have no problem selling or PIF'ing a high quality cream like T&H.
