I gave my new Tabac stick (from Ollie) last night.Face lathered and found the richness bursting from the brush within a few seconds.The smell wasn't so bad when lathering and I could have probably put up with it as the soap worked well.Close shave with cushioning lather, what's not to like? Well as I rinsed after the first pass I could feel a tingle under my neck where I am most sensitive to certain products.I finished the second pass and got the alum out after leaving the alum for a few seconds I had to rinse as the tingle was now an itch.Proraso pre/post followed as a soother but my face still felt like I had lather on it, a most unusual sensation.In the end I had to go and wash my face and put some Liz Earle A/S balm on to calm it down.I am still itchy under my chin this morning and have a couple of breakouts.I had a similar,although milder, reaction to the palmolive stick and I am now interested to compare the product ingredients of both in order to narrow down the culprit.
