Wow, that's very.....minimal. I would expect more from Mike's given all the good ingredients he puts in his soaps. Interestingly enough, that's the exact same recipe that Oleo uses for their splashes.

I was kindof thinking the same thing, was expecting more face goodies.

Just as I suspected, Mike's splashes are being made by Oleo.

Yep... and its a little annoying to me that they're $4 more than the Oleo splashes with the same ingredients and packaging.

That’s disappointing. Nothing against Oleo, but I like Mike’s take on his products. I had hoped for more skin conditioning ingredients, or something at least differentiated from other offerings. I hope this isn’t a sign of things to come with the rest of his product lines.

Both of them need to make something off the deal. Mike's providing his IP (fragrance), there's probably additional shipping charges & little economy of scale, and finally, WCS needs to take a cut so any actual cost increases get doubled. Not saying it's right or wrong, but that's how business is done.
