    Default TWO more bite the dust

    A recent check at the Caola-Alfa and Ultimate Super-max Corporate pages reveal that the wonderful Caola shave cream ,the only one left that still sported the companys name and the 3 varieties of Ultimate Super-max creams ,classic,menthol,and lemon-lime , have all disappeared from the line-up..These were really nice creams ,at very reasonable prices ,hate to see them go...

    From Hungary? I would have thought they aremtoo westernized to be using creams with brushes. Or maybe this is why they are no longer.

    I agree malocchio. Very fine creams these... my vendor still has I think about 7-8 supermax creams left, I'll pick them up on the next visit. Sadly, no Caola... I'm down to half a tube.

    More than just these two. I went on the Biofresh website for Rose of Bulgaria and do not see the shave cream listed anymore. I have an e-mail into the rep to see what or why this is.

    Caola makes Figaro and Barbon yet they only marketed this to Africa as we have discussed before. That limited it's success even more by having only one region.

    That would be a shame. It's fantastic stuff.

    Hi Ron and Joe,

    I will check too, but it would not be surprising if they really would discontinue another product that is wanted by many.

    Are the Super-max also from Hungary and maybe even also from Caola Alfa? I have never seen them in their catalogues.

    Will get back on this,

    Bye,

    Eric
