    rub it on a wet face and use the brush to get a nice lather

    That's been my approach so far, I do find it a great way to shave.
    I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going totally wrong. Thanks!

    What's the best way to use these sticks? Is it wet face, rub stick, use brush?

    Grate and mould the stick into a shaving bowl (or any container of that size) and use it as a soap by rubbing the shaving brush against the moulded soap. I had the same problem like you but used the method mentioned above and it solved my problem. This videos might help you.

    Obviously Tesco anxious to get rid of discontinued stock - I bought about 4 sticks at 65c I think when heard they were to be discontinued, a few more when they were reduced to 33c, down to 16c today and had to but a few more; now on verge of creating Palmolive mountain!

    you can still get these in Tesco (not all stores but the bigger ones usually have them e.g. Dundrum). think they are 1.65 or something like that these days. I've used plenty of other soaps but just stick to this now as it does the job very well. Boots do a soap stick that is sh1t but it comes in a plastic handy stick holder that I put my palmolive soaps into now (http://www.boots.ie/boots-original-shave-stick-50g-10094848). it's worth buying for the holder. imo not worth the hassle of moulding the palmolive soap into a bowl - this product works best when put directly on via the stick onto a wet face/neck and lathered up with a good brush (definitely not the palmolive brush which is crap but ok to start out I guess).

    I got a couple of empty plastic twist up sticks with cap and grated up a few sticks into each. As you say, best soap out there for the cost.

    the boots stick needs no grating - has plastic spikes at the bottom that you just push the palmolive stick into. just peel down the foil as you go. worth 2 euro to get one for the convenience.
