Hi Folks! I’m Stan Ades, founder of Pacific Shaving Company. I just wanted to introduce myself and share a few interesting facts for the day:

1) When it comes to shaving, I’m really just an average guy who wants to use simple, practical products. Nothing perfumey, musky or drying – just something that makes the chore of shaving more enjoyable.

2) I developed our shaving oil seven years ago specifically to help stop nicking myself on a small scar under my chin – shaving creams covered it up and I thought if I could see where I was shaving, it would be much easier to shave around blemishes. (I was right!)

3) Our products are for both men and women. And yes, that small but mighty ½ ounce bottle will last longer than your big bulky can of shaving cream.

4) I like to call our product the TiVo of shaving cream; once you use it, you can’t imagine going back to life without it!

5) We work with Trees for the Future to plant a tree for every bottle sold. We’ve already planted tens of thousands of trees. Plus, our ½ ounce bottle takes up 95% less space than shaving cream cans. (Think landfills)

6) The Nick Stick stops bleeding quickly – seriously. My three young children use it more than I do. Scraped knees, cuts, etc.: “Daaaaaad? I need the Nick Stick!”

7) We’ve got lots of fans including a bunch of celebrities. I’ll only give hints on a few: King of Queens (male), Late Night Talk Show Host (male), and The West Wing (female). I hope you’ll give it a try!

Looking forward to reading your comments, and I’m happy to answer questions as well.
