    I am looking for good lime products, in your opinion what are some really good lime products in both scent and performance. In shave soap, shave cream, aftershave splash and balm? And go...

    There's Palmolive lime shave cream. Haven't used it but have been looking into it.

    Kiss my Face Lime is the top performing shave cream I've used, but the scent is on the light side. It's not very strong.
    Trumper's Lime shave cream has the best "natural" lime scent of shave creams I've tried, but the triple milled soap was disappointing in it's performance.
    Coate's Lime shave cream was disappointing in performance and scent. It's not bad, but not superior to anything else out there.

    Trumper's Lime Skin Food is an excellent product, but rather overpriced, in my opinion.

    Crabtree and Evelyn West Indian Lime Shave Cream and Cologne is sublime.

    Royall Lyme Bermuda is the gold standard for me in a lime after shave.

    TSD Iced Lime is a favorite of mine. Get it while you can. The store is closing.

    Just picked up RazoRock Essential Oil of Lime soap. It has a really nice lime scent, bit not overpowering. But, Maggard Lime & Bergamot is my favorite.

    Margaritas in the artic by stirling soap company and west indies lime by truefitt and hill are my go-to's. Stirling also makes another scent called gin and tonic that is quite fantastic.

    All of the above also are available as aftershaves, but i would add that Avon's lime scent is quite phenomenal... And cheap.

    I am also a big fan of the Crabtree & Evelyn West Indian Lime Shave Cream, performance is excellent and I love the scent.

    I recently picked up a Soap Commander soap, the Japanese Grapefruit variety, if you are interested in a twist, it is quite delightful.
