Hello everyone,
I've just ordered some tabac shaving cream, I'm wondering about everyone's experience with it?
I also got it fairly cheap, it's from a website with a promotion. Would I be breaking any forum rules by posting the site & code, mods? I'd like to share it, but if it's not acceptable practice, I'll refrain.
I have this cream but I have used it only once and from what I remember it's performance was really good. Althought you might want use it with an inexpensive brush because it contains Dimethicone and from what I have heard if you use products with this ingredient for a long period of time they might "destroy" your brush, that is what I have heard but I might also be wrong.
I have it, I like it but it's not my favorite.
I still use it almost exclusively when I travel just because it has a great shave stick version.
I find it a bit of a dry soap if that makes sense. I thought it was just me, but now I've heard the same thing from a few people.
Have fun,
Let us know what YOU think.
Use it every other day..... It's great
Big fan here-love the intense scent and lubrication/glide/skin protection. Tabac often yields my smoothest shaves!
Tabac is a great cream, but I tend to get better performance from the soap, whatever works!!!
Yeah, I plan to give a review after it arrives & I've had a few shaves with it.Quote:

I think the original poster was referring to Tabac shave cream rather than the soap?
It's a good performer, glide and protection are more than adequate, the lather doesn't dry out and the moisturising is okay.
I just don't like the Tabac smell, it's very strongly scented for a shaving cream.
I never had a problem with the performance of Tabac, but I didn't really like the smell. It was a bit too barbershop for me, if that makes any sense.
I said I'd give a review after a few shaves, but one is enough for me to know all I need to know about this cream.
I was able to get a good lather after a bit of trial and error, and have no complaints about its performance across all other areas. The only thing I can't stand is the smell. I can't pin down exactly what it is, but it's one of the most unpleasant scents that has ever crossed my nostrils, I'm sorry to say.
It's a good performer, but it's not for me, so I'm going to PIF this and move on.
