Thread: Goe. F. Trumpers shave cream

Has anyone had any experience with this brand? It was given to me and is the first I have tried. Just wondering how it compares to some of the other products out there. My only complaint is that it seems to "dry" on my face before I can get shaved.

Trumper's shaving cream is the primo-stuff. In my experience it is very high end and yields a really nice shave. If your lather is drying out, you might want to try hydrating it it a bit more - dried out lather often just doesn;t have enough water.

I love Trumpers Line of shave creams. I have the sandalwood and Lime, and everything from the cushion to the glide is great. Again if your lather is drying out u just need some more water. Try starting out with a pretty dry brush, and add a little water at a time, soon enough u will learn where each creams sweet spot is.

So do you spread the cream on your face and then brush it, or put the cream on the wet brush first? I have been told both ways.

Well I bowl lather, So I soak my brush in the bowl with hot water while i take my shower.

Then I empty the bowl and shake out my brush(pretty thoroughly i want a damp brush) then I put some cream out either in the tub or tube, and smear it in the bottom of the bowl. Then i go to town on it adding alittle bit of water at a time.
