Product reviews of Geo F. Trumper Limes Skin Food, 100ml

Review: Skeptical Cheapskate won over........
Beauty product: 5 Stars

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!

Review: Smells great, but grossly overpriced.
Beauty product: 3 Stars

A dime-sized squirt covers my face. It smells great, and calms the post-shave tingle down.

I love the lime scent, but disappears quickly, and I normally use cologne. This is too expensive for just the smell, since you can get the same skin benefits from using a six dollar bottle of Nivea Sensitive skin aftershave balm.

Review: Well worth the money

This is great. My skin feels great after using this product. Make sure you get all of the shaving cream off your face with cold water before you use this. Great product.
