Not to derail this thread, but the base for Barrister's Reserve has now been perfected, additional soothing and moisturizing ingredients have been added, the stickiness and weird acetone smell have been eliminated, and we will be using a different sample packet design for the production version. Smile

That said, disregarding my own products, Krampert's aftershaves are the most moisturizing alcohol splashes I've ever tried. Frostbite is especially excellent.

Great news Will! I was going to post an update to my opinion on Barrister's Reserve and mention that I feel it is a little too sticky or tacky after it soaks in for a while. I still enjoy it but the changes you mentioned should make it even better. I look forward to trying the new samples.

Release version. I'm extremely happy with the final design and, as I'm the toughest tester there is (though perhaps a bit less foul-mouthed than some of those who submitted feedback), I consider it to be complete if I find it satisfactory. Since I find it significantly MORE than satisfactory, I think we're pretty good to go. Smile

General releases with normal availability. We're also pursuing getting the formula certified for sale in the EU.

That said, as a matter of production logistics, they will likely only be available in the US for the first couple of months as we ramp up our ability to produce them.

One final thanks to Hobbyist for the helpful recommendation of wetting my face before applying an aftershave/moisturizer. In only a few days this has completely transformed my skincare regime. Since adopting this method, my face has not once experienced excessive dryness or flaking even when using very plain alcohol splashes.

Your advice is much appreciated my friend Smile.
