Wow, those talc tins might be worth something!

This morning's post shave talc was Tweed, from the U.K. Smile

The third from the left on the big picture is very ornate. Is it Art Nouveau?

It looks like it to me but I thought it was just a vase. It certainly is beautiful, though.

So why all the love for talc? I'm curious. What's so special about it?

I find a little talc leaves my face feeling smooth after I've shaved. I don't use a lot but I like the way it makes my skin feel.

Himani Navratna Cool Talc is a favorite for me, especially when the weather is hot and humid. The scent is hard to describe but I love it. You can see, from the back of the package, the scents used. It is very refreshing after my shave and would also be great as a body talc after a bath or shower. It is a product of India.

Yeah, and he's a heck of a lot better looking than I, too. Tongue

(Using his product doesn't help me in that department. [Image: 656211b6.gif] )

Talcum powder: This stuff is horrible to breathe into your lungs.

It causes cancer. A person's lungs can't put up with it.

I'm surprised that this fact is not known here.

A substitute for talcum powder is much safer.
