Thanks again for the tips,

Sounds like a very nice set up for her Chris. I wish her the best of luck and she is more than welcome to join here if she wants to ask questions.

I do plan on encouraging her to read up on DE and sign up on SRP, just not until after her birthday.

+1 to the Corn Husker's. Very moisturising.

But, It sounds like your looking for Geo F.Trumper Coral Skin Food. It has a Rose scent to it. Very light, and not very masculine. The whole line of skin food prodcuts, I.E. Lime, and Sandalwood are all very mild. Coral Skin food has always been a forum favorite...

I went with Dr. Arlington aftershave lotion/milk paired with Truefitt&Hill Lavender shaving cream. My fiance really likes the scents and the results of using them.

Hello,

My girlfriend uses coco butter on her legs after she shaves. I smells so damn good! Sweet and coco-ish. I wouldnt use it on my face because its to oily but on your legs and arms its very nice.

Check it out,

Chris

twinluxe soothing face balm is da bomb. just what you want. very moisturizing, not greasy, and no added fragrances

Thanks to all who have posted. I recently received a few samples of Trumper's skin food (coral and limes) and have passed them on to my fiance to try. The fragrances were appealing to both of us. I am curious to find out what she thinks of them..

My fiance actually let me shave her legs the other day which was surprisingly easy even with my limited experience using a straight. Anyway I used my Anthony after shave balm to finish it up and she loved it. It's fragrance free and left her legs amazingly soft and smooth. She normally has really bad razor bumps after shaving with her disposable but definitely not the case here. I know the straight had a lot to do with it but I'm sure the aftershave balm really helped as well.
I know sephora carrys it. It's a little pricey around $20 but it's worth it.
