Stirling is easily the best artisan. Fantastic/affordable products and friendly customer service. I'm looking forward to this new couch series and a tour of the new building when it's ready. The bloopers at the end were hilarious 😹
This is great insight into small business problem solving. I am new to wet shaving but have bought many of your products and absolutely love them. I love you give free samples of soap to smell different fragrances. Keep up the excellent work. Your branding, colors, and quality our outstanding!
The end had me cracking up! Great work guys. I really appreciate all the hard work you have done over the years in order to deliver us great products. Keep up the awesome work, and I look forward to seeing more content in 2023!
Your entrepreneurship is incredible. Flexibility is what it is about. I much rather get your soaps, balms and lotions in whatever bottle than not be able to get them at all. The more I learn about your company the more I like it. I love Arkansas too, so I was happy to learn that is where you are located. I’m down in Driftwood Texas.
Best shave products I have. My go to stuff!! I have referred your company to everybody who I know who wet shaves. Thank you for what you do and I look forward to my next purchase! Thanks again!! Mike
You guys are the best! .. Videos or no videos , I’m good. Rod & Mandy Keep doing what your doing 👊. I’ll make sure to add a few lotions on my next order . RC
Hey RC, I got two bottles of the Executive Man lotions in the pump bottles. I found that the performance was outstanding, exactly what one needs in a lotion. My only wish, is that the scent profile was stronger. I want to smell more of that Executive Man scent.
Great to see you both together running down the explanations on it all. I'm not a balm guy but now I'm thinking to give them a try soon. Thanks again ! Edit - Laughing at the ending now 🤣
Thank you Rod and Mandy for being so awesome in the community. Stirling is my all time favorite brand and always will be. If Laurie and I can support you in any way we will. Cheers.
I could easily put the body lotion or butter on my face as an afterhave in winter. Time to stock up the stores in Greece Rod!! They have almost all your soaps.
@@T-R.e.x Just depends on the weight of the package. Shoot me an email at stirlingsoap@gmail.com if you ever want to check what it would be to ship certain items, and I can get a quote for you.
This was so helpful. Thanks for explaining. Now I know what to use for dry elbows in winter guess I need to make an order. Love your products. Pretty new to wet shaving and your different scents are amazing. Keep up the free samples to try different fragrances, I love this and have discovered some good ones I maybe wouldn't try otherwise. The ending was great thanks for leaving it in. Funny!
Much love to y'all❤ I'm thankful you're happy with the move ✝ Very cool getting more insight to these products. And leaving in the end of the video... PRICELESS 🤣
Rod and Mandy thank you for the update!!! Please upload more videos. You are my favorite artisans, you put customers first providing them with quality products at an outstanding price. The fact that in the UK where I live Stirling is the first product to go out of stock says it all. I recently received my first pre shave oil, bergamot and lavender, and it was full to the rim!!! Thank you for dispatching the Stirling Spice soap to my sister in Ohio, I have received it and enjoy using it. I have all different bottles from the balm, the upside down one in (triumph, island man and Haverford) the white in Campania and the new smaller green bottles in (nag champa and barbershop). Question Rod. Have you ever smelled the quorum aftershave lotion or edt? It's one of my favorite scents, how much I wish you'd make a soap based on that scent!!! Wish you all success in the world and may God bless you to continue providing us with your top notch products!!!
I. Love. This. This is so much the Stirling vibe. Honest people making an excellent product without any pretension. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. By the way...the couch needs to be Stirling Green.
I used to live in Piscataway so I find it funny that you got the shave jars from there just to send some back to me. Love the products and can't wait to order some more
I live in Australia. I bought my first Stirling Shaving Soap ( Gin and Tonic ) from a Supplier in Australia a few months ago. I love it !! I just ordered three more Soaps from the same Supplier. I ordered Arkadia, Deep Blue Sea, and Piacenza. Thumbs up to Stirling.
Love the products, particularly the shaving products. It's great to hear about how you run your business and the challenges you face - as consumers we never see that and wonder why things like packaging change but now why know why you did what you did!
These sessions are fun to watch and enjoyable. Like so many things in life education and knowledge is power taking my shaves and personal care routine to the next level. Keep up the great work you both are the best!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣awesome!!! Fun, informative and educational. There are a million battles when growing a business. For you it has become so much more than cooking a few batches of soap in your kitchen. I think most can appreciate that and thank you for all of your attention to what may seem like small details, we do love the green containers! Also, great descriptions, I've always wondered what the body butter was. My next order will have a jar. Keep up the good work
Its been awhile since you fine folks have made a video, I am so glad that you came back, to give us this awesome explainer, on the differences of your skin healing products. As I am not an expert on all of those items, I really appreciated the information. I have been ordering from your company for 10-months now, I really love your products. And I am so happy to hear that the move went OK, and that things are working out for you. Having said that however, I am not pleased with how that bottle making company, decided to drop you, because they thought you were too small, thats not cool. Thanks Rod & Mandy for being amazing!
Happy to see a video from you! The best artisan at incredible prices, love the new bottle, having it upside down makes it easy to get all of the product out from it. Love the blooper😂
Hi Folks- Great video. Thank you very much for making the lotion in Unscented, too. Your scents are wonderful, but prefer a plain hand lotion. All the best in 2023 and best regards, as always!
You guys are awesome. Love all your products. Just recently got some body lotion and love that it’s not greasy like a lot of other commercial brands. Great videos. Wishing you are fantastic 2023. I look forward to another great year with Stirling products.
Stirling products are so good which is why I have so many now. High quality for a fair price. Would love to see videos of the move. Happy New Year I wish you much success!
Love it! I think those of us who enjoy your products are interested in these kinds of details. I didn't know about the bottles and differences in formulations. I'm working my way through my first bottle of unscented aftershave balm and I will be buying more in perpetuity. Mandy is 100% correct about it not being greasy where so many others are. I'll be trying moisturizer at some point and maybe the body butter. Just a thought for a video could be a "How it's Made" style look at one of your products. Also, more on the coffee side would be interesting. Thanks again for sharing! -Eric
Thanks for the update and explanation of the differences between your skin "moisturizing" products. Looking forward to more "on-the-couch" info sessions. Hahaha ... funny bloopers... Take care Mandy and Rod!👍🤠
Love sterling products got that deep blue sea splash n soap thing is slick smells really good. The soap smells more like my bleu de chanel than the splash to me. That been said the splash is very soothing after the balm application. Keep up the amazing work sterling. I wish you guy had a store in San Antonio
I have the balm in the old toddle and I love it . Nice balance and not greasy. The ending reminds me of the first few shave videos I made ...sent alot of footage to the cutting room floor back then lol
You two are fantastic. The end was priceless and had me laughing along with you.🤣 However, it’s your products, the care you take with them, and their quality that that comes through. Your shave balm has been my go-to for a long time and I have more of your shave soaps than any other brand. I’m also a big fan of your bath soaps. Keep up the great work.👍
I agree with everything you said about how much care that Stirling puts into their products. Plus they have hearts of gold for including free soap samples with every order. I also agree that the blooper reel at the end was quite hilarious. What can I say, Mandy married a funny guy, at the end of the day, it just works. 🤣
actually this was a super helpful video. After watching this based on your explanations, I realized I should have been buying the lotions instead of the body butters. Thank you!
I love your products, and was eagerly awaiting new videos all year last year. Congratulations on your move, and I can't wait to see the new place! Loved the blooper reel!
This was awesome! Having spent thousands with this great artisan company.. videos like this explain why.. You're all human haha. Cracked me up with the bloopers! I'd agree 100% with everything you said as I own many of each of what you were describing in this video. I'd like to see you put out a hydrating serum as part of that strictly face moisturizer you were mentioning on the to-do list. Got to go assemble an order.. HAVERFORD!!!!! :) :) I'm really looking forward to more videos!! Even if Rod has to be in them HAHA
Bahahah love the blooper reel at the end! 😂😂👏 great video and glad I now thoroughly know the difference between these. I love the body butter!! Now gotta try the body lotion and post shave balm. Thank you for this!! 🙌🙏
Fantastic job! You both did very well. I really did appreciate you discussing the topic of lotion versus body butter and post-shave balm. Its been one I've wondered about for a while. I also really liked the backstory on your bottles and packaging. I'm so happy for your move and am excited for what you have in store for us all in 2023. It's great seeing you both and I can't wait for your next video. Keep up the great work. 😉
Love your guys. But I must say I ordered the three pack samples of your coffee a couple of weeks ago and I wish I never did. My wife now wants me to order all the time. lol
You have amazing products and I think it would definitely help posting videos (when time allows it) every now and then. It’ll give you more exposure and help put a face to the company for newcomers.
Thanks, Joe! We are going to do our best to actually keep up with the videos this year. Should be able to since the move will finally be completed within the next few weeks.
I really like the post shave balm. I wish you had an unscented version. I also benefit from the body butter on my feet. I have ordered these products multiple times!
We actually have it in Unscented. Here’s the link: www.stirlingsoap.com/products/unscented-post-shave-balm. We also have unscented mentholated versions too. Let us know if you have any questions. -Mandy
I know business is business, but that was pretty rotten of them to drop you like that. Sorry guys. Would love to see you do more videos for sure but ya'll are busy as a firehouse ladder so it's understandable. Kudos on using US companies too. Love the bloopers! Take care! John B.
Can you use the lotion interchangeably with the shave balm? If I didn’t want to buy both, applying lotion to my face after shaving will still be soothing to use on my whole body?
The lotion doesn't contain the skin repair ingredients like allantoin and witch hazel, but it can be used for moisture after a shave. It is thin enough to be used on your face.
Thanks for the video. Appreciated the information and looking forward to more of the same. The wife and I are just getting into the body butters and really enjoying the results. Oh, Which would you recommend for older wrinkled skin, the body butter or body lotion?
old and wrinkled like a shar-pei, or more like a dried out catcher's mitt? 😂😉 Just kidding. It's likely going to be the lotion, but if your skin is particularly dry, or you are in a colder climate, the body butter would be a good choice.
@@StirlingSoap Old and wrinkly like 80yr old skin gets😎 BTW, what is “shar-pei”? Been using the body butter. Loving it. I’m chuckling as I write this because I know you too will experience the old and wrinkled look in about 30 yrs. We need to pay you a visit one of these days. Poplar Bluff is about 4.5 hours from you. Thanks for getting back, Al
@@alspencer2794 The lodge on Mount Magazine or the Coury House at Subiaco Abbey would be the two closest places I believe. It's a pretty small area, but Fort Smith is only about 45 minutes away as well.
Well that wasn't very nice of your supplier That's not love lol! I guess they have so much business in this modern economy that they can afford to do that
Yes, more videos please! Would love to see the coffee operation. Just received my bag of Kenyan Espresso from you and it was once again amazing! The care you guys take is unreal. For those who haven't tried the coffee, you don't know what you are missing. And the bag has an extra vacuum-sealed bag that keeps the coffee aroma in check if it is packed along with soaps. A genius way to pack and ship. So happy to see your company continuing to grow. Thankful to be a small part of your success!
The coffee is definitely on our list of future videos, Ray. Thank you for the kind words and taking a chance on us. I'm so glad you love the coffee. :-) - Mandy
Hello Ray! I got into Stirling coffee a few months ago myself, and I also adore the Kenya dark roast Espresso. So far, its my most favorite coffee that Stirling sells. I ordered 2 large bags of Kenya this month, and I just can't get enough of it lol.
