That said, and while I know this is a busy time for you, I have some questions, and I would like to see if I have correctly pieced together the lay of the land for Grooming Dep't. products. In part, my questions are motivated by the five soaps shown at the link which ischiapp provided. All have "AION SKINCARE" most prominently displayed on the jar top. Three of them display the model name less prominently, and two do not display a model name (on the jar top). So my questions are ...
- Will there be only two bases going forward, Maxima and Mallard?
- Is AION SKINCARE the umbrella for both of them, and possibly for skin care products besides soaps?
- Does Maxima soap require a brush to lather? Does it require time to soak in, or is there anything untypical about the lather building process?
- Thinking of what might be a flipside to the second question, is the plan for Grooming Dep't. to offer classes of products that are not AION SKINCARE?
Hi HighSpeed
Thank you for asking these wonderful questions. I appreciate your interest.
Will there be only two bases going forward, Maxima and Mallard?
For now, I will only be releasing soaps made with Maxima or Mallard soap bases. Cream and gel products will be released when they are fully developed.
Is AION SKINCARE the umbrella for both of them and possibly for skin care products besides soaps?
Aion Skincare is the brand I'll use to release soaps and other skincare products. I already have two well-received and extremely popular products: the Hydrating Gel and the Nourishing Balm. I also have the Aion Skincare aftershave, which is a skincare product specifically designed for post-shave use. I will be releasing more skincare products in 2024.
Does Maxima soap require a brush to lather? Does it require time to soak in, or is there anything untypical about the lather building process?
The Maxima soap base is an evolution of Kairos SE, and it's still a soap in a jar that requires a brush to create lather. It's an extraordinarily fast-lathering soap base that requires minimal effort to create a superb lather.
Thinking of what might be a flipside to the second question, is the plan for Grooming Dep't. to offer classes of products that are not AION SKINCARE?
Grooming Dept will continue to evolve and release products. I'll reveal them when the time is right.
