Queen Charlotte Soaps after shave balm testers wanted

**Price** · 03-30-2012, 02:35 PM

I've been interspersing my sample with other splashes & ASB's to try to get a good comparison. Finally got shave #7 in today. Ready for the questionnaire, and standing by when this stuff comes on the market. Excellent product. Kudos, QCS.

I'm ready for the questionnaire as well, Matthew.

Matthew send more than enough test product for a month (or more). I used it for 9 days straight. The last two days I used it, back to back, with other ASB products so that I could get a good direct comparison of performance. He did ask that we use it 7 days straight so I went 2 more days so that I could "head to head" with the other ASB products I use in order to get my head around the new product. I purposefully used too little and too much of the product as well as on two days of the test I deliberately gave myself razor burn to see how well it calmed that down. Man I forgot how bad that hurts... Glad I don't need to do that again anytime soon... YOUCH...

day 2 with mine (got it late from canada post) and another great result. i can easily see this stuff lasting a month.

any idea or insight as to what type of applicator it will come in? squeeze bottle, pump, jar etc?

so far i'm really enjoying it. today i paired it with RR King Louis and between the 2 of them, my face feels soft and smooth and not dried out at all, very moisturized.

Could you please PM me your e-mail address? Thank you!

7 days past, PM sent with my info for questionable.

i'll post this openly, hopefully it's allowed.....that ASB was fantastic, loved the scent, great consistency and worked great.

thanks for including me....it complimented most of the soaps i was using, i love LIME scented product and the family also loved the scent.

well done!

**brucered** · 04-08-2012, 11:21 AM

is there any insight as to when this may come to market?

i used my KeyLime Cream sample today and paired it with the QCS ASB, and now i want both, but at the same time!

Bruce, thank you for your interest. We are having our website and logo redesigned and will probably launch the aftershave balm once the design proces is complete. I hope everything is done by the end of April, but cannot promise anything.

I've been eyeing Vostok and Vetiver but want to wait to see if there'll be a matching ASB with menthol to go with it. I hope they hit the shelves soon!

Good to hear. I'm planning on a mid-May order then. Excellent.

Id love to try your balm. I currently use a balm as my skin is dry and any improvement is very welcome.

testing is done, sounds like it will be available for sale end of month.

Any news on release of the balm?

Ditto. Been checking the web site and nada.

**mretzloff** · 05-08-2012, 07:28 PM

Our website redesign is taking longer than we expected. Because of that, we will be releasing the aftershave balm before our new website is complete. We ordered the bottles and the labels today. Once those come in, we just need to make the aftershave balm, fill the bottles, and then put it on the website.

Thank you for your patience.

Can anybody comment on how well this does on really dry skin? My skin is extremely dry and I have trouble with most ASBs.

I think it would be great for those with dry skin. I find this balm to be very moisturizing and I commented to my brother yesterday, I would use it as both a facial moisturizer and AS balm.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I could buy some samples to ensure my skin likes the ASBs.

Thanks for the update - looking forward to giving this a try. Are you willing to release any early information regarding ingredients and/or fragrances yet?
