Last month, I posted regarding a project I had been working on; a 'hybrid' shave creme. After many revisions and several modifications suggested by my Testers during their trialing of this creme; I have received the green light from them that it is ready for SCS.
The shave creme is 'Bulgarian Rose'. It is made with Pure Rose Hydrosol (Floral Distillate) replacing most of the distilled water; Rosehip Oil and Avocado Butter have been added to the emollient portion of my recipe; and the very subtle fragrance from the Rose Hydrosol is enhanced with pure, certified Bulgarian Rose Absolute.
An Absolute is similar to Essential Oil except for the method of extraction. The fragrance of an Absolute is much more "concentrated and complex". Bulgarian Rose Absolute is quite expensive at approximately $100 per ounce. The high cost is due to the fact that it requires over 30 Roses to produce 1 drop of Absolute.
Due to the much higher cost of the ingredients, the price of this 'Limited Edition' creme is greater than my other shave cremes priced at $20.00 for a 4 ounce jar.
The quantity of this creme in stock is small. Depending on my stock, this S/C may or may not be placed on my website the week of August 19th., at the earliest, when my webmaster returns from vacation.
As with all of the SCS shave cremes, I personally developed this recipe and it is made by my hands in my kitchen. It is not a 're-seller' product. To my knowledge, no other entitiy offers a shave creme with the quality of these ingredients providing a top-shelf quality shave.
