What is Talcum Powder used for?

Talcum Powder has many applications and is a great problem solver to have on hand.

The rule of thumb is to use Talcum Powder in places where you want to avoid moisture and odor. Talcum Powder keeps skin dry, smooth and absorbs moisture. It minimizes excessive sweat production and improves your fragrance with a pleasant aroma. It is therefore great for sweating in the summer heat - for example on the feet, between the thighs, etc.

Talcum Powder is also great after your daily shave to provide dry, smooth and fragrant skin. In some barbershops, they use Talcum Powder as the last part of the shave after the Aftershave has been fully absorbed into the skin. They do this to take advantage of Talcum Powder's smoothing and soothing effect.

Talcum Powder is great for those who suffer from irritated and sensitive skin, or for those who tend to have oily or moisturized skin.

Talcum Powder is actually also good for extreme running and longer runs. Many recommend applying Talcum Powder to the feet the day before a run to avoid blisters.

How to apply Talcum Powder

Step 1

Make sure the skin is completely dry before applying Talcum Powder - this ensures the best effect.

Step 2

Sprinkle a small amount of Talcum Powder into your dry hands or spray directly from an atomizer.

Step 3

Start with less Talcum Powder than you think you need. You can always apply more if needed.

Step 4

Work the Talcum Powder thoroughly into the exposed areas for about 10 seconds so that it is evenly distributed and penetrates the skin.

Step 5

Lightly pat skin to remove excess powder and ensure a clean, dry and smooth surface.

Proshave tip

It's always best to apply Talcum Powder while standing in the bathroom, as it's inevitable that some white particles will hit the floor. Therefore, remember to wipe down your surroundings after using your Talcum Powder powder.
