Thread: How many cremes?

So..how many cremes in tubes or jars do you guys have..I'm curious to know as I rotate between caswell massey creme I'm finishing up and Derby blue package creme..I also ordered Godrej Fresh Lime/Original and Old Spice Fresh Lime/Original scent ALL made in India
..dunno there's something about lime n original flavors which still have a light scent PLUS they are 100% synthetic made and work well for me..Salycilates are off limits for me.

Yes Lanolin is jeeps fat which also acts as a lubricant..Lavender is a plant which is a no no for me

Well...I have 12 cremes. They are (in no particular order):

1. Geo Trumper Violet
2. Geo Trumper Sandalwood
3. Geo Trumper GFT
4. Art Of Shaving Lavender
5. Taylor of Old Bond Street Eton College Collection
6. Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender
7. CarrieM Dragon's Blood
8. CarrieM Bay Rum
9. NancyBoy Signature Shave Creme
10. NancyBoy Replenishing Shave Creme
11. Shamrock Absinthe
12. Shamrock Lavender

Plus 9 samples of CarrieM's other scents (I am testing these one by one for favorites and next order ).

Wow!..personally like variety in my cremes..and alternate every few days :-)

I just wanted to make sure nothing out of the ordinary..lol..I remember when I wa a se/se user and wasn't weir to have many handles..but cremes..ok now I see the light RAD=razor addiction BAD=brush addiction..my new thought SCAD=shaving creme addiction

Also in no particular order...

Proraso
CarrieM's Bay Rum
CarrieM's Lilac
CarrieM's Sandalwood
CarrieM's Blue Raspberry Vanilla
The Bomb Bay Rum
The Bomb Tangerine
AOS Unscented
Vintage Blades' Lemon-Lime
L'Occitance Cade

(Some of these are just samples.)

I know, I know ...but, I wouldn't call it SCAD just yet ...When I started I didn't know which ones I would like, so I just bought a dozen over a few months just to develop a sense of scent and performance...after all, every face (and nose) is going to be different.

It turns out that I like most of these very much and I don't have a favorite, although I must say that CarrieM's and NancyBoy's are right up there. I love rotating through my cremes depending on mood...Choice is a fantastic thing.

AOS Sandalwood
Truefitt & Hill 1805

I have more soaps than cremes......but I must say the creams are obviously much easier for me to use and the scents are stronger. I'm now kind of partial to cremes because the scents of the cremes are making shaving even more rewarding........I guess my tastes are refining?
