Hello Friends- I posted this up in the BST section and on Instagram but hey ya never know so thought I’d post in this thread. A since Vanilla Safi is next on the schedule I thought it’s sort of relevant. 

So I’m looking to replace my custom Vanilla Safi bowl. So the short story is when these limited edition shaving bowls were created and released there were only 18 of them made and they all were pre- sold. I of course kept one for myself. Well shortly after shipping them to all my customers one of them reached out to me to tell me that sadly he dropped his on a marble floor and the resin bowl cracked in a few places. I felt bad for him so I sent him mine. Well years later a friend and fellow wet shaver some may know ShaveMD Mark sadly passed away and his son in law sent me Marks bowl that he got from me at the time of the release. So I was very happy to have it back in my den. Well that changed with the house fire and it’s totally destroyed. So I taking a chance I may get lucky once more as I’d like to get one back in my den. So if anyone who has one is interested in selling theirs please message me. I lost all my other Shaving soaps, Bowls and brushes in the fire and yes I was certainly attracted to some of them but this one is one that is very special to me. So again if anyone has or sees or hears about one for sale please pm me.

A member just messaged me and he’s sending his to me. I’m very grateful right now. I’m not sure he’s wants me to mention his name but if you see this post sir once again thank you so much! Lots of good people on here is all I gotta say.

All the best!

UPDATE: 

So I finally found a new apartment and I’ll be moving in between April 11th and the 30th so I’ve got a lot to do to get the basics bought and moved into the new place. So this may affect orders that are placed between those dates and may take a day or two longer than normal to get filled and shipped. My assistant will be working her normal hours and she’s capable of filling 90% of the orders so there should be very little noticeable difference in orders being fulfilled and shipped, but I wanted to make people aware of the situation in case their order is delayed for some reason or another. An as a reminder we ship on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. 


I will be working on gettin the Vanilla Safi made and ready for release in between my move and on Saturday the 20th I will be taking Pre - Orders for the Limited Edition 7.5 oz Italian Frosted Glass Jars. A link will be sent. Another link will also be available for the normal 7.5 oz sizes in regular jars. A from experience I’d wait to use your link when all the other products are released which includes the Skin Food Splash, Lotion, Serum and the EDP. The EDP will be a 100% natural blend of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Benzion and Amber which is a beautiful combo and a little more interesting than just a straight Vanilla although I have to say the Vanilla works great in all the other products and I’m going to be adding a Vanilla Shampoo and Conditioner at the request of more than a few folks. 

That’s about it for now. 

Great shaves

UPDATE: 

Hello everyone 

So starting this Wednesday I’m starting the list for the Vanilla Safi in both the Limited Edition Italian Frosted Jar 7.5 oz and the regular 7.5 oz Jar. Please send an email using the one on the ETHOS website only if you’d like to be put on the list for one of the two jars. I say email only because its to hard to keep track of texts, PM’s, DM’s or WhatsApp messages.  Just ask you to include two things in the email. 

1. Full name and address. 
2. Let me know which of the 2 different 7.5 oz options you’d like. 


If you're more interested in the 4.5 oz size, those and all the other Vanilla Safi products will be released a few days later. 

I’m going to be making the Shave soap this coming week and weekend. This is a very special version of the F Base and I can’t wait to hear the feedback on it. 

Enjoy you’re Sundays

I was going to shave today, but I'm missing something.   Something important.   Can't quite put my finger on it.

The Colonia will happen soon my friend I promise. In the new F Base this time around. I’m waiting on some Citrus Essential Oils from Italy to get to me. We had a mishap as the UPS guy brought the package to my address where the fire was and a neighbor told him I don’t live there anymore which was totally wrong as it was still my mailing address up until two days ago so the package went back to Italy! I wasn’t to happy but tier shipping it back to me again with some add on items I ordered.

So as soon as they arrive I’ll get the Colonia made.

Thanks for the support!

Frank
