Which retailer you would recommend in the US, having some stock, reasonable shipping cost using USPS ? 

Thank you in advance  Happy2
Actually there is no real “reasonable” shipping cost to Europe from here on something over 8oz.  The really best thing is to get 3-4 soaps you want and buy them.  As far as splashes, if you don’t get them from Anticura forget about it, shipping alcohol based products is a no-no so chose either the lotion or the serum (I am partial to the serum).  

You can trust me, I ship back and forth to Germany about 4x per week at work.

Hello Hercules34

I’ll comment on my Vendors as I won’t make comparisons to other brands as that might be taken as a put down of another brand and I’m not going to do that publicly in fact one of the soap makers you mentioned is a good friend of mine. I’ll let my customers speak of my products. If you’d like to discuss my products with me just use the email address on the website and get touch with me and we can talk. I  will say this, get started by looking up the price of real Vanilla Absolute, Vanilla CO2 Extract and I also infuse very high quality Madagascar Vanilla Beans for my infusion that goes into making Vanilla Safi. Also look up Rose Absolute and East Indian or Mysore Sandalwood and then look up the price of Vanilla, Rose and Sandalwood fragrance oils or synthetic aroma chemicals and compare prices. That’s a start and we can go over the other things if you message me.

So I have a lot of customers in both Europe, Asia and Canada. All my vendors will be getting large orders in the next 10 days depending on where they are located in the world. So you’ll have a good selection to choose from.


Thanks for your inquire.

Regards

Frank
Hi Frank,

Thank you very much for all your precisions - I appreciate - I have placed 2 orders to complete 2 sets in Anticatura and The Razor Company - Nuage de Citron and Beauté Sauvage as well as the splash Violetta - any idea if you would make the soap again ?

If I need support I will contact you directly.

Looking forward to testing yours products

More to follow 

Warm regards

I was so annoyed with myself to find out that I missed out on Frank's Tonka Bean Serum when it was first released.  I tried to console myself knowing I had a bottle in another scent I was using, even though I didn't enjoy the scent.  I was almost at the point of getting in touch with Frank when earlier this week the TB Serum was available again.  And to round out my TB set, I grabbed a Skin Food Lotion.  The scent of tonka bean is just so calming, for me it just sets the tone for the rest of my morning.  And the fact that it leaves my skin feeling so good all day long.

Thank you for the compliment and yes I found 3 jars of the Tonka Bean shave soap that was put away for a overseas buyer who has not been in touch with us for months and I tried contacting with no response so I put them up on the website and I added a few of the matching post shave products as I had a little bit of the Aroma Blend left. I’ll be making another batch in the Fall and adding a few new products to the collection as it’s been a very popular release for us. In fact Tonka Bean and Vanilla ( a combo of both ) has been the most requested custom serum of any scent. I’m so glad to hear you’re enjoying it. 

Best regards 

Frank

Nice one Dave.

It’s funny you picked ShaveMD as I woke up this morning thinking about our old friend Mark and wished he could see how long the post he started has gotten. He’d be happy I’m certain.

Have a great weekend my friend!
