Product Description

When shaving we exfoliate the top layers of dead skin uncovering new skin; this needs to be protected from the elements for a short while, so Geo. F Trumper has developed glycerine and gum based skin food that seals the skin. It is non-greasy so leaves the skin dry and smooth; without blocking pores or drying the skin. This skin food can be used after shaving or for those with very sensitive skin it can also be used before shaving to protect the skin and help the razor glide more easily. Lightly scented with West Indies Lime, this skin food leaves the face in perfect condition. Size: 3.3 fl oz / 100 ml

5.0 out of 5 stars I never knew..., May 22, 2009

I'm new to this whole style of shaving. As most men from my generation I grew up using the Gilette cartridge products along with the standard aftershave products they offer. Recently (just turned 35) I decided to treat myself and try something new. In doing so I read many recommendations for this product as an aftershave...all I can say is that I wish I had done this sooner. You need VERY little of this stuff (less than a dime size) to cover your after shave needs and it smells and feel amazing. Clean, quickly absorbing, and highly moisturizing. I'm more than pleased with this product and plan to try others within this line. The other benefit is that this bottle will last quite a long time (I've been using it for well over a month now and have barely started to break into the bottle). I'm 100% satisfied with this product. I recommend it highly to anyone that has not tried it thus far.

Ok I love the smell of lime but who doesn't ? When I started getting into old school double edge razor blade shaving and banished Gillette from my life forever (YEA!), I saw that this Trumper's "skin food" kept coming up again and again in the recommendations within the shaving forums. I knew there had to be something to this product but the price made me wary. When I saw how much this bottle cost I really did laugh out loud- hey I'm cheap and Target sells post shave balms for $5 why do I need this foo-foo ripoff stuff ?

Well I put my skepticism aside and got this as a Christmas present to myself and I'm damn glad I did. This stuff smells incredible. In fact my wife probably loves it more than me if that's possible. Improves my shaving and my sex life ? Incredible.

But how does it work for it's intended purpose ? Well, the stuff melds into your face after you put it on and really does make skin feel great after shaving. It has an interesting "thick" consistency; meaning its thicker than liquid and is not quite a gel- just right to keep it in the intended spot on your palm when you squeeze a bit onto your hand. There is no burn (very little alcohol if any in this product)and only a 30 second wet look as the stuff gets absorbed into your skin. A little dab will do you! If your face still has that "wet" look after a minute or two you're using too much and need an intervention! Many guys in the shaving forums (Badger & Blade etc.) say that one bottle of this stuff will last over a year. If you are judicious and use a tiny nickel size dab this stuff works incredibly well, smells fantastic, and you'll be looking forward to using this after your shave! This skeptic is beginning to think this was a great investment. I hope you will as well. Best!

The cost is high, but the quality is outstanding. It takes very little to cover freshly shaved areas so it lasts a long time. The aroma is subtle and it feels excellent. My wife loves how it smooths my skin. I like the refreshing feel and the protection from foreign debris prevents breakouts and calms slight razor burn.
