I use to use the Mugso when they offered it. However, since then I have not used any pre-shave 'stuff'. I really like the T&H shave soaps though....

I use it. I don't know if it helps with the shave, but it feels really nice, and the smell is a knockout (at least if you like a citrusy smell).

The T&H creams are very good. Trafalgar and West Indian Limes are in my regular rotation. Their hard soaps are also out of this world.

I've got the T&H Sandalwood Cream. It's ok but nothing to write home about. My Tom's of Maine, Kiss My Face, and Palmolive creams are just as good if not better, and run about $1.80/tube.

I don't plan on buying more. I'll save my luxury purchases for homemade soaps by Colleen, or one of the Sues. I get a lot of enjoyment out of them. The T&H cream just doesn't strike me as anything special.

The T&H West Indian Limes cream is excellent - the smell when you open the tub is amazing.

You might want to try Taylor of Bond Street creams as i think they are both better/similar quality to T&H or Trumpers, and better value. Ones to try:-

Rose - my number one all time cream.

Avocado - Teflon for the face. Great for dry or easily irritated skin, and the one I reach for when my skin is a bit red or sore.

Lavenda - great smell of 'real' lavenda (not the girly sort).

If you suffer from spots or irritation Coates Tea Tree cream is great, but i believe is a little difficult to get hold of over there in the US.

I have the t&h soap and I was wondering if they make a cream with the same scent. Does anyone know?

Thanks
