I think coral skin food is overrated. It just does not work for me.
I have a sample of it, but it starts to give me a headache after the first sniff, so I haven't dared to put it on my face. I'm just not a fan of floral scents. In fact I haven't even lathered up any of the floral creams I got in my Taylor's and Trumper's sample packs.
I have been running a bit of an experiment with the Coral Skin Food. I find it works well, but every time I use it, without fail, I wake up with a nasty headache (I always shave at night). Seems like the smell is causing me some sinus issues. It sucks, cuz I actually really like the stuff.
I don't think we can get Corn Huskers Lotion in the UK, does that smell of roses too?
I recently re-ordered a 100mL bottle of each (Coral, Limes and Sandalwood).
To me Limes is candy-like a stark contrast to the floral-lime scent of the soap and EDT. However, they go together very very well.
Sandalwood is just that. It is a bit stronger in the bottle than it is on the skin but it is a fantastic scent.
Coral is a very strong rose in the bottle but an odd almost sickening scent when it is initially applied. However, once it dries down it is much more subtle and pleasant.
I keep these three and they get regular use. I mix/match Sandalwood and Rose soaps and Skin Food options regularly. The limes is used exclusively with my GFT Limes shave (soap or cream) and EDT.
They are a bit pricey, but for my skin they are fantastic.
I totally agree... I think Skin Food is amazing, as is Trumper's Limes cream.
I don't care for the smell of coral, but it makes my skin feel so amazing all day. And the smell dissipates quickly.
BTW, I have 3 8ml bottles of each, and I could see them lasting for 3+ months (seriously) because I need so little. 3 100ml bottles should last you a lifetime.
Indeed, I've had my current 100ml bottle for the last 13-14 months and it is still 1/4 full. Although 1/4 full was slim enough to prompt the reorder of all three!
Maybe you guys who don't like Coral got a bad batch if that is possible.
You never know what could happen... hehehehe
People complain about the price, but it's really not that much since it lasts so long. To me the Limes is about the greatest cream and Skin Food on the planet.
Sandalwood and Coral at the top then Limes at the bottom for me.
