As Fine is the target dupe, would think you good to go but, obviously, Frank's call

zaclikestoshave  Absolutely! Just quote the post and add your name to the list. I’d be happy to get your take on the sample.

Had to share this awesome SOTD photo that one of my customers posted on Instagram this morning  He was one of only a few people that got the Asclepius Shave Soap and Serum before PayPal put a freeze on my account and made me take it down which took almost 3 weeks to get cleared up.  Such a shame I personally get great shaves with the soap and the serum. An I had plans for a few CBD based products.

Oh well it is what it is. Put all the products in storage and maybe I’ll apply for a permit which I found out can take months to get approved.

Ok I need a little help.  So I have not liked the labels on the Remede and Replenish Serums for two reasons. One is I really don’t like the quality of the labels I got from the old label company I was using. They wrinkle easily, are hard to get even and from a design standpoint it’s an old design with the old dragon on etc etc. So I’m not the only one. A couple of my customers commented on them and thought I should change them or at least update the white labels, which would make them look better but since I’m going to the trouble I thought why not take my 2 customers ideas and post them up and get your opinions on which way to go. 

So the 4 photos below are the 2 with the green plant theme and one is with yellow font and one with white.  This was what my one customer thinks the serums should look like. The other suggested a grey label to kind of match the silver in the brushed Aluminum serum pumps. Looking at the grey I think the color needs adjusting. It’s not the right shade In my opinon. Last is the existing label which would be updated with the right copy and logo and a better quality label. 

So any thoughts, suggestions on these. Or maybe a completely different idea. Whatever change I make I want do it very soon. 

Oh BTW the labels are just pasted on flat in the photos of the 3 newer ones and would be wrapped properly and photographed for the website like the white one on the bottom so don’t judge the quality of the photos.

Much appreciated

White and decidedly so. Elegance conveying quality in its simplicity

I like the white label best. It looks more professional and high quality.

Ok between you two and a pm and a couple of phone calls who all were on the same page with staying with the White labels I"m with you on this and I'll update the white label and get them made from the new label company I"m working with now and so they will be better than the one in the photo.

Thanks guys for the input.

Just got my first ever Ethos Firm Base shaving soap, Lavender Scent.

Can't wait for Saturday to have a shave with it, especially more so after hearing all the good words on this artisan.

UPDATE: 

So my interpretation of the AOS/Fine Absolut arona which is my vegan shave Creme base shipped out today to TommyCarioca  aka Tom and I enclosed a bunch of scoops for anyone who’ll be using it. Again it’s more about the scent as the actual product will be a Shave Soap and I
maybe down the road a Shave Creme as well. 
I told Tom that this aroma blend probably has a lot more authentic Sandalwood in it than the AOS vintage and definitely more than the Fine which after smelling it a lot for a few weeks to my nose is all synthetic which I’m not condemning I’m just saying the aroma is not coming from any real Sandalwood type I’ve ever smelled and I’ve smelled a whole lot of them. Just wanted to make the testers aware of this when putting your nose to the Shave Creme sample. I recommend about an almond size of the Creme when using it and I find a boar works best but any brush will work fine. 

Looking forward to your feedback and if anyone else wants onboard the pass around list just copy and paste this post.  Doesn’t matter if your familiar with AOS and Fine as long as your familiar with one or the other. 

Thank you for your participation in this test.
