    Default AoS goodness

    Stopped in at the local Art if Shaving store here in Salt Lake. Talked to the gentleman there for a little while. Decided to snag some pre-shave oil, cream and after-shave lotion. I haven't used an oil before, so hopefully it's pretty nice. I have used a lotion before, but not this stuff. I'll be shaving with it next time I whip out the DE.

    I have been to that store. I indulged in a Royal Shave there. You get to experience all the products and get a great shave. It was a little pricey for my tastes but I had a gift certificate from Christmas. I enjoyed my shave. The people there are very nice to talk to and quite knowledgeable. Post your shave results. I have not purchased any of the shave products myself, but my brother in law has and he loves them.

    I really enjoy their aftershave balm, but its pricey. I only use it when I need some moisturizing, helps to extend the bottles life.

    Their Ocean Kelp shave cream rocks. I'm not liking their pre-shave oil as compared to one I have previously from T&H. AoS uses a pourable bottle vs. easy-to-use pump. Other than that, I'm sure it does about the same job.

    I forgot about this thread. Oops.

    I have shaved many times with the AOS products now. I really like the pre-shave oil. It makes the blade glide so much better, and I get a smoother, cleaner shave. Great stuff.

    The Ocean Kelp shaving cream is fantastic. It smells really good, and doesn't take much of it to make a good deal of lather.

    The Ocean Kelp aftershave lotion is a nice treat. It smells like the cream but the scent lasts for quite a while. It's a light enough scent that if you want to use a cologne, it won't overpower it.

    I'm glad I picked these up. If you haven't tried the AOS line, give it a shot.

    I like all thier stuff! After shave balm.. Creme.. Oil... It is just a little pricey, and goes fast.. The only thing that seems to last is the oil, which feels great!

    That reminds me I have pick up more oil from there... The guy that works at the fashion place mall store in Salt lake knows his de razors but when I've talked to him about straights never got good information. The woman that works there really knows her stuff though.

    I liked their products as well, but with concerns about the paraben ingredients, I stopped using the shave cream and went for more natural products. If you don't have any concerns about that, the cream was great otherwise.
