Hello everyone I sorry it's taken longer than I thought it would to release these first few products but with the situation out there with all the lockdowns in NYS it's been a challenge that's for sure as everything in mine and I'm sure manys lives are moving at a slower pace but I'm happy to finally be able to offer these products on TSC.
Maybe not the best time to bring out a new product to market but let's all hope we can get through these trying times together and move forward with our lives sooner rather than later.
So because of all that's going on and my website developer and graphic designer who's mom is not doing well it's going to take even longer to get my website up than I thought it would so for now and thanks to the gracious owners of TSC I'm able to sell the products using paypal. With that said I'd like to bring to your attention some of what to expect doing business like this and I'll list them below.
1. When you place an order please pm, email me at Ethosgroomingessentials@Gmail.com or text me at 585- 851 - 4600 with your order and your shipping info so I can get you a total price with shipping.
2. I have a shipping program for my haircare business which is Alcame Inc. and my shipping costs are lower if I use that program when shipping out ETHOS orders to you so please be aware until I can set up a seperate account which again based on the current situation may be awhile I want you to be aware that Alcame will be the name on the shipping label as where your order is coming from so don't think you've got the wrong package.
3. When you order if your using PayPal make sure as a backup to also include your shipping address when you send in the payment. This makes my job a lot easier than having to look back at pm's, texts or emails as it's all in my PayPal info.
4. As stated I'm using PayPal for payments and my PayPal email address for now is Franklipanijr@gmail.com ( will set up a ETHOS one in the near future ) If you don't have a PayPal account I can also take Venmo and Cash App but contact me first before going that route and I'll give you my info as how to proceed.
5. I want you to know I'm taking every sanitary precaution and procedure to insure you that when you open the box your products will be safe to use. Since I have no control on what happens after the package leaves my hands and goes through the USPS or in some cases Fedex the only thing you have to concern yourself with is how long the virus can live on cardboard and from what has been posted up it seems like 24hrs/one day is the max so if you want to take an extra precaution let it sit unopened for that time period.
6. Products and pricing will be listed in each of the following posts down below and as I add products they will appear in this thread.
7. Please take note that my photo skills aren't the best so for now the photos I took below will have to do until we put up the product photos that will be shot in the graphic designers studio and put up on the website.
8. Also more detailed descriptions of the products and their ingredients and scents along with the ETHOS mission statement and more will be on the website so I'm keeping the info below simple but if any of you have questions about any of the products please feel free to ask about them in a post, pm, text or email and I'll get back to you as fast as I can with an answer.
9. As I've stated before all ETHOS Grooming Essentials products are priced according to the cost of the ingredients used in each and every formula which include the scents, packaging etc. So for example one Shave Soap or Skin Food Splash may be more than the other for those reasons. Now and then there will be special or limited releases like with the Mysore Sandalwood Skin Food Splash in this first release. I'm hoping to keep most of the products available all the time but some may be released for spring and summer and some for fall and winter. Basics like Lavender will be available year round for example.
10. As some of you know all ETHOS Grooming Essentials products are placed into Collections for now with such few products it probably doesn't seem as necessary but as we add more products and Collections you'll see how it makes sense. Some of the Collections are based on the ingredients that are indigenous to different countries, continents and their cultures but now all of them. The name ETHOS can be used as a substitute for the word Culture. A few examples: The ETHOS of a Barbershop, The ETHOS of New York City's Soho district, The ETHOS of Italy's Amalfi coast. I'm sure you get it so I'm looking forward to having some fun with the Collections moving forward and I hope you do to. Plus I think once the website goes up it will make shopping and looking for what you want easier as well. For example: If you're looking for a Citrus Forward scent well then you'll find it Agrume Collection. Looking for a cologne type scent go right to the Niche Boutique collection, something tropical then it's the Island Collection, No scent then it's the Pure Collection etc. So no need to look through 30 different products to find the scent profile you're looking for just go to the Collection to find your product.
NOTE: Due to the situation with the lock down in NYS I'll be shipping orders that come in Saturday, Sunday and Monday on Tuesdays and orders that come in Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday on Friday. I'm trying to limit the time I spend out of the house as I hope you understand.
NOTE: When ordering through PayPal Please include your shipping address along with what items you ordered. It make the whole shipping process go a lot faster. I'm sorry for the inconvenience one my website is up this process will go a lot faster for both parties.
Once again thank you so much for your support!
Thank you for your patience and support it's been very much appreciated!
