Shaving Cream of the Month Discussion: JuLime

[jakespoppy]

Hey all you lovers of everything LIME.

Many of you love LIME in your favorite beverage:

Some love LIME in Key LIME Pie, or a nice LIME tart:

And of course those are great. But in this thread, we're going to share our thoughts, experiences, and general love for our favorite LIME shaving creams. For example:

Wonder how a shave with a nice LIME shave cream would be, followed by a splash of OSAGE RUB?

Okay, let's hear about those wonderful LIME shaves during the month of JuLIME! And don't forget those pics!

Let's not forget godrei lime cream and all the wonderful lime soaps!

Oh yeah! And I know there are others. I'm curious to see just how many different LIME shaving creams we come up with during JuLIME.

Trumper's Extract of Limes cream. Not a pure lime aroma but wonderful!

This morning, on the first of JuLime, I shaved using Castle Forbes Lime Oil shaving cream and then applied Trumpers Lime Skin Food, as a post shave treatment.

I really like the Coral Skin Food. I'll have to try the Lime now!

Great pic, Rob. Nice combo of 2 of the 3 T's! I like the looks of that scuttle, too!

This thread is all about diversity. You don't have to be a pure LIME, you don't even have to be a cream LIME to be welcome here!

TSD Lime SS
TSD Lime AS Splash

I know you mentioned the soap but since this is the cream thread I'll share my take on TSD Lime. It was one of the first lime creams I tried. It smelled nice but the performance was lousy. Because of that I never even tried the AS.

Great pic, Rob. Nice combo of 2 of the 3 T's! I like the looks of that scuttle, too!

I used this same set up today.

 

[Prince]

Used my QED lime this morning and didn't even know about Julime.

I'll be using KMF Key Lime for most of the month, but I'll start later this week. I have about 1-2 shaves left in my SCS Blue Line Menthol puck (now a sliver) I want to finish off first.

 

[Sueto]

I have ordered Castle Forbes Lime with matching aftershave to participate in Julime. I have been wanting to try a lime for awhile, I am hoping I made a proper choice.

Castle Forbes Lime is one of the richest, slickest creams I've tried. I think you're going to like it a lot.

Gotta go with JM Fraser's original

Yesterday I lathered some T&H West Indian Limes shave cream up and finished my shave with some Saint Charles Shave Mediterranean Citrus aftershave splash and some Trumpers lime skin food.

I made a citrus-themed order from Saint Charles Shave yesterday on account of their amazing 4th of July (JuLime?) sale!

 

[jakespoppy]

Saint Charles Shave products are awesome! Gotta love Sue and Wendy!
