Cuba Libre
Note: The name on my Etsy offering is listed as Cola Libre, but the pictures are correct. Due to Esty regulations I could not use that name in the listing or this write up. Cuba is not a word they allow in venders listings.

Cuba Libra, is Sean and I's second collaboration. This one has been fun, it's my first offering in my new Brangus base. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Imagine a warm evening on the beach, where the air hums with music, laughter, and the clink of glasses under a fading sunset. Friends gather by the beach, sharing stories over drinks, that perfect cocktails of dark rum, a crisp Coke, and that final squeeze of fresh lime.

That’s the spirit we’ve captured in our beverage inspired shave soap and aftershave. From the moment you lather up, you’re transported. The bright zest of lime hits first, followed by the deep warmth of spiced rum and a gentle ribbon of sweet vanilla. The rich, creamy lather cushions and hydrates, turning every pass of the blade into something smooth and satisfying.

As you rinse off, that scent hangs in the air. Easy, familiar, and comforting. It’s with you a little longer, tucked into the collar of your shirt.

Then comes the aftershave, not just a splash, but a finishing ritual. It’s that last twist of lime in your drink, cool and clean, with just a whisper of menthol to awaken your skin without overwhelming it. Infused with skin-loving ingredients like witch hazel, aloe, and coconut oil, it’s crafted to soothe, restore, and leave you feeling refreshed long after the shave.

These are the memories we made, and now we want you to make your own. Let every shave with our new offering bring you back to nights filled with music, sea breeze, and good company.

Cheers to good times and great shaves.

About After Sauce
Cuba Libre After Sauce contains a small amount of menthol. This means it is not in your face, only leaves a little coolness in dry down. It's also contains Cocoanut oil, one of his favorites skin foods. Please shake well before use.

After Sauce is not your typical aftershave. No weak imitation of a cologne. It's skin food in bottle with a pinch of fragrance. It's meant to heal repair and rejuvenate your skin. You will need to shake well before use to mix the ingredients. This is why I chose a clear glass bottle. I want you to see what's in it and know when you have mixed the secret sauces to one homogenous fluid. There is no reason to over do application, a little bit goes a long, long way.

You may ask, what's the secret sauce? Well I can tell you it's not a bunch of big words you can't pronounce. My goal is never to impress you will big words, it's to knock your socks off with big results

Ingredients:
Denatured Perfumer's Alcohol, Witch hazel, 100% Aloe Vera extract, Vegetable Glycerin , Vitamin E oil, Tea Tree oil, Cocoanut oil , Menthol, Fragrance and Essential oils.
