Hello, gents;

So far, my experience with Trumper’s has been limited to the products they sent me in their excellent sample kit. However, I have noted two things right away. I find the shaving creams very nicely scented but not particularly moisturizing (compared with Taylor’s Avocado, Musgo Real, C & E Sweet Almond Oil, Proraso, and JM Fraser’s). But the after shave products – and the skin foods in particular – I find both amazing and unique. I would buy one of the skin foods without hesitation.

That is my two cents’ worth, though I do recommend that everyone order their sampler kit. I ordered mine on a Monday, and received it in Ottawa the Friday of the same week! Still can’t believe it! GBP 3.40 and no shipping charges…
