Finished.!!

Apart from some trumper samples only a sandalwood and eton college TOBS cream with a almond one nearly done as well prior to my de days I have half a stick of Palmolive and a black tub of wilkinson shave soap which must have been before they made the blue tub?

Took a while but the TOBS is done

So that's the 3rd tub of cream finished in about 4 years of DE shaving. Quite a few more to go though.

Very recently finished off a tub of Mama Bears unscented shaving soap, and am just beginning to see the bottom of a tub of Cella.

This morning I finished my second consecutive tube of Proraso red - I just love this stuff!

Though I'm not sad - why? It gives me a great excuse to start my 3rd one... LOL

How many months did you get out of a tube?
 
I reckon I get about 3 months out of one, but I'm pretty generous on 'squirting'! If your tight fisted, I mean, more economically minded, ahem... you could get much longer...
 
3? I presume you shave everyday though no?

I got 6 out of my Proraso green I got last year, but then again I shave every 2-3 days. Will be getting another tube once I'm done with my BB Revenge cream.

Yes, have shaved everyday since I was 16. Got a heavy dark beard which I use to think was a nuisance before discovering DE shaving :icon_razz:
 
Finished a tube of original formulation Erasmic this morning. No more of this stuff, alas. Sustained on using up some of my vast collection of creams... Ingram's first, then Musgo Real Lime Basil....must try harder!

Can I ask what is the difference between the old formulation and the new?

Couple of years ago i bought and finished a tube from Savers and it had Made in Jordan on it, noticed current tubes are from blighty.
 
Finished a tube of Ingram

Can see the bottom of the tubs of Cella and Wilkinson Sword soap although I wouldn't be surprised if i got another 20 odd shaves from the Cella.

There was some detail in a thread from last year about the differences - Old vs New Erasmic. Removal of Coconut oil is definitely one change, with addition of Chamomile. Worth a read, anyhow.

I see quiet a lot of the red top old metal tubes on the bay for peanuts, are they still making these in Jordan so we have a UK (Crap) and Jordan (Good) mix stock here in the UK?

I don't like to derail the finish thread but just a quick question about Erasmic.

We have the sticks in the shops for about £0.65 but it is not even touching the Palmolive in term of slickness and thickness, I understand that the stick also gone a few reformulations, but they did a U turn four years ago, and gone back to beef extract.

My question is: the sticks in the shops has tallow written on the box but it is a crap product compare to the Palmolive and their own bowl (which is very nice), was the stick before the reformulation and subsequent U turn better than the current tallow version?

Regarding the tubes I would be wary of the eBay products. I think they are using old images. Check first (easiest way is to ask which cap they have). I haven't used the stick so I can't answer that one I'm afraid.

That's a very generous offering. However I think I need to concentrate on reducing my stockpile of creams. My wardrobe resembles the studio of a deranged artist with half finished tubes all over the place. Thanks again for the offer
