Thread: Recommend me some new cream

I need some recommendations on some new cream to try. My go-to cream so far, for the last few years, has been TOBS sandalwood and Mr. Taylors. Besides that, the only other creams I've tried were Spencer & Devons, Arko of course, and col conk soap (which is pretty much what I use when I run out of cream.)

So for someone who's been a big fan of TOBS, what else should I try?

I am not a cream guy, but I have tried Al's "The Bomb" . Holy slick pile of foam all over the place is all I can say. I got a sample pack and he has some nice fragrances also. If I wasn't so dead set happy with Momma Bear's I would have a collection of Al's Shaving creams. When I get a bigger shave den there will be an Al's shelf :<0) The truth is I had a 4 year supply of pucks before I found out about creams.

Truefitt & Hill creams are nice and so are the ones from Castle & Forbes. I have also had success with Jack Black Supreme Cream but tend to use more soaps these days.

Very smooth and a pleasant smell. After shave balm is really nice and could last years!
Designed for tender and sensitive skin!
One of my favored creams.

Nivea shave cream for sensitive skin is worth trying and costs a fraction of the cost of luxury creams. Use alone or blend into an Uber-lather. Adds a nice touch.

Castle Forbes is awesome stuff. I also like E-shave.

Proraso Blue in a tube. My new favorite.

Thanks to my friend Ray (walleyeyeman) I can recommend something out of the ordinary and it's from here:
Slippery Vixen Soap Company

Click on Stone Fox. The container that I have is the Spicy Citrus, pleasant smell, makes a nice lather and leaves my face feeling nice. I sent a container to another friend and member and he loved it.

It's a very small company and with my dealings with it I've found their customer service fantastic.

Here's a little bit about Slippery Vixen Soap;

Who We Are

Kathleen Rich is the owner of Slippery Vixen. Kathleen has been making soap and other bath products since 2009 and loves that she has been able to turn a hobby into a side job.

Kathleen has the help of a couple wonderful friends to come up with new ideas and create new products.


How We Started

We started making soap and lotion for our family and friends who seemed to be sensitive to the store bought products. We tested recipes and new fragrances, played with colors and techniques, and handed out samples from each experiment. What started as a fun hobby has grown into something a little bigger.

I hope that you will give her product a try as I like my cream from her small shop better than the 'BIG BOY'S/NAME BRAND'!

How about, Kaloderma (might be discontinued), Nivea (mentioned before), Musgo Real, The Body Shop's Maca Root cream and Palmolive.
