CBL Premium Shave Soap - Anouncments

I don't want any part of a capsaicin infused soap. That is not a topical burn I'm interested in having every morning.
 
Ok I just smelled a Dragon’s Blood soap. It smells like a cross between hippies and Dr Pepper.
 
Whoa, I been away too long. If it's Dragon's Blood, I'm in! Just don't tone it down to that wimpy stuff. Go real deal holifield.

Oh and @NurseDave if yo just smelled the sample I sent to the library, that is the wimpy stuff.

You were the reason I put the dragons blood in the basket in the first place, I thought you might like it.
 
Just used your Orange Frankincense with Hemp Oil this morning Chris. I need to do some more comparison...but I am thinking the Hemp Oil ads a layer of moisturizing that I may not have noticed in the Ghost Lime I used also. I am really digging it. But like I said...I really need to do some more comparisons before I can make a final determination. Just thought you would like to know.

The basic recipe is the same but there are differences. Technically/scientifically the hemp oil should be a good thing...is it better than other oils like grape, sunflower etc? I don't know. In my opinion I think they are pretty much equivalent. The soap you have Don has all three but doesn't have the cetyl alcohol or Propylene Glycol.
While both should feel pretty good the newer version should have a more lotion like post shave while the hemp might feel conditioned without a particular feel...if that makes sense. BTW I love the Orange Frankincense scent, you had a good idea there.

The cadre has spoken, I will work on a hemp dragons blood this weekend along with the TSC scent. I'm also going to have some Cigar Shop Indian made and if all goes well the Cigar shop Cowboy. I will reserve a little unscented base if possible to allow for special requests but there won't be any other new rollouts for at least a month.

Haven't seen droopy for a long time...love it.

I don't mind taking your guy's money so long as I'm giving you what you want. The Cadre is a hard place to debut a soap because its like debuting to family...you know they will support you but if you suck they are never going to let you forget it.

Your soap doesn't suck, at least the samples that Chad sent me don't. I think it is quite good. Both the "Money" scent and the juniper scent are wonderful with good SOS.

I am still waiting on USPS to deliver my initial order from 9/4/18. The USPS tracking number shows it as "In Transit" still. I am really annoyed at USPS right now for this. I really want to give the production soap a try.

Hopefully my next order will have fewer problems getting to me.
