Advice on creams

[Fellonblackdays]

I'm getting slightly indecisive with getting some creams for christmas I think I want around 3 or 4. Perhaps a couple of higher end then some lower end ones. Feel free to make some suggestions to me.

What do you already have so we can rule some out?
I would suggest Palmolive, any Taylor's of Old Bond Street, any Geo F Trumpers and Speick as four to start with.

Body shop shaving cream was a very pleasant surprise and worth considering as it's easy to get hold of. The free brush that came with, less so.

T&H 1805 is lovely stuff... nice subtle scent. As a contrast, I also like Proraso green, for a bit of a menthol blast.

Castle Forbes - Lavender or Lime. £20
Nanny's Silly Soap - lots to choose from. £6

These are the best I've used.

Speick.
Sir Irisch Moos.
Proraso Green.
D.R. Harris Arlington.

All great performers and they smell great.

Already I have some palm olive and some ingrams got some Cella as well and truefitt and hill soap.

 

[Helveticum]

Speick. Feel the difference. Also you need to try Proraso if you haven't - green if you like menthol, red if you don't.

Where does everyone find the best online store for picking these up by the way?

 

[CelticRoots]

You should be able to get most from connaught shaving mate.

Just give em' a Google.

 

[Fellonblackdays]

Thanks for the advice, I will buy from there!

Get some fitjar as a top end its £30 touch, not tried it myself but I hear it's worth the money, then you can let us all Know what it's like

La Toja is very good

T&H 1805 and Castle Forbes Lavender would be on my list somewhere towards the top.

Also look at some of the Trumper's offerings - some good ones there that you don't usually find everywhere like Violets. The Rose is pretty good too.

A big pot of Truefitt and Hill 1805, one of the best creams at any price. I'm buying one today seeing as they just sent me a 33% off code in my emails.

1805 and Castle Forbes lime.
