Bourbon Country Shave Journal - Dave in KY

Very nice Dave!, and as far as the Ghost banana............


A lovely Trade wind... A banana Tree, you open one the fragrance whisks you away you are in heaven.. just then you see a shadow approaching, the sound of the waves and a crackle of ice... You turn around and a Polar Bear grabs you, pastes you with a Banana cream pie, and shoves your head in a snow bank he brought with him!!

It is a fantastic soap and experience, LOL

Dave, you are quite convincing.
I promise, I will post ALL new releases here on the Cadre forum before making them available to the public. I live to serve the Cadre and will go out of my way to ensure those who want a CBL soap have very opportunity to get what they want.

...And you bring up something that I was thinking about this morning. I (and I think LNHC) add Allantoin to my soaps. Allantoin is fairly expensive but a little goes a long way. The thing is, allantoin is a great skin conditioner but it is most effective when used regularly. This would mean that those who use a CBL (or LNHC) soap only occasionally may not get the benefits Allantoin can provide when used daily...which made me question whether i should consider offering a soap without Allantoin (kind of an economy formula if you will). I don't see a lot of soap with Allantoin in them BUT several good artisan post shave/aftershave products DO have Allantoin. SOOOO, I guess I am recommending you either use a CBL soap everyday or include the use of an artisan aftershave that has Allantoin in it.
