Trumper's Coral Skin Food + Mama Bear's Mandarin/Menthol milk

Very impressed by the Castle Forbes Lavender cream, although it works more like a Proraso "soap" than any cream I'm used to. VERY thick, but what a scent and performance! I think the Swedish Gillette blades are rising in my ranks... almost on par wtih Derby blades.
