Cool, I did not know that any store in the states was carrying the Erasmic.
Excellent selection, hopefully you'll enjoy it :happy088

Why do you preferr shave sticks to soaps and/or creams? Giovanni tells me shave sticks are great for situations where you need to shave in a bathroom with multiple men so one does on pass around diseases.

I never got Smallpox from shaving with a public Head (bathroom for you Landlubbers). :rofl
To me sticks are just another fun of wetshaving, something diffrent, mix it up a bit.

I actually would have preferred a regular puck of soap, but the stick was all they had. I could be wrong, but I think they had cream as well. The sticks are convenient for travel.
I had to struggle a bit to get a decent lather with the Erasmic this morning. I'll assume its my fault and keep trying. Decent scent though. Clean.

The Erasmic sticks smell very nice, and the skincare is excellent as well. Jordan, the key to making a rich, enjoyable lather with an Erasmic stick is simple--re-wet the stick a couple of times, and keep rubbing it on your face, and use a pretty wet brush, and BOOM--you'll get plenty, plenty of nice lather. Erasmic cream is a super latherer, a beautiful old-school scent, and gentle to a fragile skin. :D

As always, the man is right.
The Erasmic stick loves the water, and I find you don't need much of the stick to get a lather-blast.

Oh, I made mistakes here and there too, bro! But seriously, yes, Erasmic sticks love water. I have to use my stick again, and soon. I by-passed it again this morning like a putz...OK, perhaps over the weekend.

I scrape some off into my bowl and it slowly whips into a nice lather. And yes it needs a good amount of water.
