Since this not a vendors section I’m not sure it’s ok to post up prices.  I will say the price per once is less in the larger size. 

Thanks for your input.

Wonderful shave this morning with the V2 Dragonsbeard soap. It is quite soft, similar to Succès, and is the shade of dark chocolate. I scooped a tiny bit out, pea size, and had enough lather for three passes. It quickly turned into a slick protective lather. The scent is very warm and has many layers once it starts lathering. Frank had said this base is slightly different, with some modified ingredients. It seemed a slight amount slicker, and the post shave was slightly better than the other ETHOS soaps (impossible, I know). Obviously, this is based on my first shave with it and there's tons of variables, so take that opinion with a grain of salt.

I forgot to post this up last week when a customer sent me an email and said he mixed the Lavender Supreme shave soap with the Peppermint soap in a 50/50 mix in his shaving bowl and said he loved the mix so I gave it a try tonight and I don’t know why I never thought of it as the two go reall well together. I thought I’d post this up so some of my customers who have both shave soaps may want to give this a try. I’m glad I did and thank you Bob if your on here for the tip.

I want to say Soap Commander had this as a scent or a while, it was called Wisdom I believe. Lavender/peppermint.

The two have always been very compatible and in fact I made a CBD sore muscle balm using both Essential oils. 

I’m thinking maybe I could offer the Peppermint Essential oil in the little aroma blend bottles as an option when buying the Lavender Supreme shave soap and offer the Lavender as an option when ordering the Peppermint. This way with either soap a customer could just add a couple drops and get the blend. 

Thoughts?

UPDATE: 

I’m sorry I made a mistake on the size of the new travel size when I posted it’s 80 grams.  It’s actually a little over 3/4oz and will label it as such.  My assistant weighed it after filling it and I guess I wasn’t paying attention and never caught the mistake until one of my customers brought to my attention.  So sorry about that guys. Must be old age! Lol

Just tried it...It worked great! Given the strength of the Peppermint a better proportion might be 1/3 Peppermint and 2/3 Lavender...or to taste..

Actually frenchy I think you’re  spot on as it was a little Peppermint forward so I’m going to try your comb on the next shave. 

Thanks for giving it a try and the tip.

frenchy.......Bingo your combo worked out perfect and much more balanced than the 50/50 mix I used the first time. Just tried it for my Saturday morning shave. So I'm going to recommend 2/3 Lavender and 1/3 Peppermint to anyone who wants to try using the two soaps together.

Thanks again for your suggestion.
