Shave and Review of Ethos/CBL Fresh Lime

ETHOS / CBL Fresh Lime Soap/Skin Food Review 05.19.2020
Review of: Ethos /CBL Fresh Lime Shave Soap and Skin Food Aftershave Splash Initial Thoughts: (5.0/5.0) Packaging is very nice at this price point, with raffia paper, good boxing and pouches. A 4oz tub, filled almost to brim, the most telling attribute is the initial fragrance off the soap...theshavingcadre.com

Thank you for the detailed review of Chris’s and my collaboration. It was fun throwing ideas at each other on what we thought we should add to both these two products. Also just so you and anyone reading this post the slight sentiment that settles on the bottom is my fault. I’ve not used the WS 12 in a product up till adding it to my Unscented Skin Food splash along with the Lime EO/fragrance blend. So bottom line is that there’s not enough alcohol in the Skin Food Splash to break down the powder into a clear liquid so what I’ll have to do on the next batch which I’ve already tested is mix the WS 12 with just the Alcohol first and then add all my other ingredients and the issue will be corrected. I mean it’s just esthetics as it doesn’t change the performance. A couple of shakes of the bottle and it becomes more blended temporarily until it settles again which takes an hour or so. I discovered how to clarify the powder while developing my upcoming Ice Dragon - liquid Ice. Also you handle that Str8 like a pro!
Thank you Dave!
My pleasure Frank you have a real winner with both products and to be on the same track, and grabbing a gear and passing Speick as far as a nourishing skin aftershave is no small task and I don’t give that distinction lightly. So fantastic job to both of you @Dragonsbeard @CBLindsay

Dave I used SV for years and I think I’ve got about 4 of their shave soaps! My 2 personal favorites are the Felice Aromatica and Colonia scent as I’m a big fan of Acqua di Parma and have a few of their colognes. I’m fact I’ll be launching a Itaia Collection in the near future. I’m honored that ETHOS is mentioned in the same sentence with SV and PannaCrema. Another of my go to Shave soaps. Another excellent review. An I love my British Aristocrat 1st Gen #15

Each one is very different from the previous ones. Sometimes the guy wears a blue shirt, maybe a green one in the next movie and a checkered red one 3 movies later. The variety in stunning!When I'm not on the porch hiding from the wife's Hallmark movies

Just catching up on your videos Dave and thank you for doing those. I have been looking at SV and PannaCrema Nuavia Rossa. The only thing holding me back is the lighter scents of SV and the non matching aftershave splash for Nuavia Rossa. However you may have just pushed me over the edge to get them. Awesome videos Dave!
