Their creams are very good. I appreciate the unscented one. The rest of their wares, meh.
i find AoS products to be crap. I have tried many of their creams and soaps and they dry out the skin. they contain a large amount of SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) which is why they lather up so fast , and SLS is a main cause of irritation in many beauty products especially if used in high levels like the AoS.
After reading this thread, I am so going to pick some AoS Sandalwood tomorrow. The cream, not the soap...40 bucks for a puck seems too high for me! You can get 5 oz of AoS for 22 bucks!

It's not $40/puck, it's $26. There soap is awesome! You can grate it with a cheese grater and put it in any mug you want...so you wouldn't have to pay the $$$ for the wooden bowl. Any pyrex dish, coffee mug, etc would work as long as you can get your brush in it. There tubs of cream are 5 oz. (Clearly stated on the product)
Personally, I love AOS products. I use there Sandalwood soap/cream/aftershave balm & their Ocean Kelp cream, Lemon cream. Their Sandalwood soap is #1 in my den, closely followed by MWF and L'Occitane Cade soap.
Nor on their site.Where did you get that information? It's certainly not on any of the labels.
They retail for $26, but they can be had for $15-18 per puck several times a year during sales. I have several soaps that aren't much cheaper that don't perform nearly as well (I'm looking at you MWF). Not a bad deal really.
Anyone tried the Aftershave Gel ?? I didn't care for the balm. I used half of a bottle before giving it up because I loved the fragrance (sandalwood) so much, but it burned my skin for a good 45 minutes after application. I'd like to try the gel but don't want to waste my money.
Just because The label doesn't mention it doesn't mean it doesn't contain it. Have you ever tried their AS balms? It doesn't say that it contains alcohol, but if you use it you'll see it has the alcohol sting to it. I find AoS to be overpriced crap as i stated before. even with their advertising... Look at their shaving cream tubs, It is so much bigger than it contains the cream in it. I find AoS company to be awful, and that's just my opinion.Where did you get that information? It's certainly not on any of the labels.
