for sensitive ish skin (mines very sensitive) then i recommend the following products:
-Truefitt & Hill ultimate comfort shaving cream - superb lather, subtle lavender fragrance and excellent performance.
-Taylor of old bond street, Jermyn Street cream - as above, more elaborate smell with sweet notes and musk, but about half the price of above.
-palmolive cream - comes in tubes at tesco for £1.60.. its surprisingly good, and has never irritated even my skin.
for soaps, i get on fine with the following
-arko soap stick, some love the smell, some don't. I do love it, it lathers up easilly and provides a comfortable shave with no irritation for me.
-crabtree and evelyn nomad soap. Nice no nonsense hard soap.
i used to use tabac soap.. but found it too aggressive on my skin
