I was trolling around the web a while back looking for shaving goods and found Nancy Boy, purveyors of premium beauty products. This is an interesting company, as can be seen from their About page:
With a renegade team of like-minded professionals, he set out to turn the beauty business’ style-over-substance business model on its head. First rule: no advertising or gimmicky expensive packaging; rely instead on word-of-mouth from satisfied customers. Second rule: take the unspent marketing money and plow it all back into the products. Third rule: be so confident in their superior quality, offer a 100%, no-questions-asked satisfaction guarantee. To do it, they partnered with Berkeley’s family-owned Libby Laboratories, in business for over 60 years and the only pharmaceutical-grade lab specializing in the 100% natural essential plant oils that make Nancy Boy products so unique.
Intrigued I ordered up a batch of shave cream and after-shave gel. I like the shave cream, but the Replenishing After-Shave Gel does wonders for a throat newly scraped with surgical steel. And the Nancy Boy Blog also amuses. All in all a highly recommended company.
