Seasons greetings my pally chums...
So I posted in a SOTD on Monday that the Erasmic new version tallow shaving stick in the red box was much improved, and I did get decent lather and a good shave from it.
But today, sadly I have found that it is still woefully s**te.
It is definitely improved from the old, bright white, brittle, candle like thing that I was non tallow based.
However, this morning, I lathered up as usual...glanced my eyes away from the mirror and then as I looked up again...no lather??? First I figured I was simply having a mild mental breakdown, hallucinating or perhaps junior Alzheimer's BUT.. Tried it again...faceful of fluffy lather...then kapow!! It magically dissipated into nothing more than what looked like detergent bubbles. Just for your information, the same brush was used, same amount of water ect..
"Extra-creamy lather gives the ultimate in shaving comfort" LIES!
So sorry folks if you were going to try this stick probably not worth the hasselhoff.
Not to slate Erasmic too harshly though... their cream and soap tub (Glycerin based) is decent enough.
Cheers .
Ta ra for now.
