Thank you all for the thoughtful Birthday wishes!

Today is a day of relaxation, some good food and Football. My son is in NYC . He was going to drive back for today but I told that’s crazy as I have a scheduled cataract surgery on 10 October and he’s coming then so we can do something when you home. So today I’m gonna have a nice relaxing Shave, cook something that I like and just watch the games. I do enjoy football.

Have a great weekend!

Three uses in with F Base Mélange d'Agrumes and, together with Rosa and Sándalo Artistico, I've now removed other brands from my daily shave. This latest base is superb.
Most artisans produce good quality soaps these days. It's come to be expected. Where F Base stand out for me is post shave. I have Rosa SFS, but yet to acquire the Mélange. With this Grapefruit soap, I'm forgoing any post-shave product and the resultant face feel is amazing.
I have extremely oily skin. I have no idea why, but after using F Base, either solely or with the splash, my skin remains free from excessive oil build up for hours. That's a huge plus in my book.
And, as for Mélange, it's just a stunning scent. I've used a few Grapefruit scented soaps in the past and none has come close. It's a winner as far as I'm concerned, Frank. Fantastic!  Happy2
Just need to work out the best way now of incorporating the aroma blend. I load from the container and face lather.

Hi Dave aka Optometrist

Thank you for your feedback and I'm glad your enjoying the products. Ok on the Aroma Blend if you want to load from the jar it's easy take as many drops as you feel you need to increase scent strength ( Don't go overboard ) into the Shave soap or I've also added a couple of drops to the tip of my shave brush after loading all the lather of course. Either method works but I prefer just putting a couple of drops into the brush tips compared to putting into the jar. Anyone that uses a bowel to lather up can simply put a few drops into the shave bowl and whip up the lather.

Hope that helps.

Best regards

Thank you, Frank. I'll try adding the aroma blend to the brush in the morning.

UPDATE:


So it's that time of the year again and soon I'll be releasing the Dragonsbeard V4 in the most current F base with a couple of ingredients that are traditionally in the Shave Soap. I'll list the ingredients below. As you know the Aroma Blend is 100% natural and that includes the Agarwood Oil and Oud Resin and the only reason those two are in their at the price I sell the soaps for is because they were a gift from a God. There's a long story behind it but I'll save that for a rainy boring day but believe me if I had to purchase the Agarwood Oil ( Oud Oil ) and Oud Resin this Soap would be a whole lot more money and would far exceed the Vanilla Safi in price. Look up the current price of Oud Oil from Cambodia.  In fact it would probably be only available in a Custom order to be honest. So because I didn't have to pay the crazy expensive price I'm passing it on to you. Granted there are some other expensive Aromantics in the blend like Sandalwood and Rose but this is a yearly special release to me so I'm keeping the price as low as I can. 

There are two options in packaging for Dragonsbeard. 

1. Is a 4.5 oz Black Plastic Jar. These will be available both on my website and at my vendors. 

2. Also available in very limited quantities will be a 7.5 oz Great looking Black Glass Jars with UV protection. A great environment for all the natural ingredients. They are also very costly and anyone who's looked at them on the internet can confirm that. Those will be only on the ETHOS Website if they make it that far. The reason I say that is I posted this up late last night on IG That there are only so many and I"m creating a list if anyone wants one in the Black Glass Jars and you have to email me to be on the list. I've already gotten few people on there in the last 12 hrs so if anyone would like one please email me using the one on the website and I'll put one aside for you.  I'll announce when they are all spoken for. Also all orders for this option have to be in before 7th as I'll be making and filling the jars this coming weekend.  


Here's a list of the ingredients and the new updated label below that. 


Thank you and great shave all.
