Kiss My Face brand may well be gone

[deoxy4]

Alpha Brands bought the assets of Kiss My Face. KMF products have been out of stock and have not been restocked for months. Some products available on Amazon at obscene prices.

I always have had KMF shave cream in my cabinet for a decade. It was one of the very few decent products available locally. Plenty of good creams and soaps available online, but still, too bad.

Yes I herd a while back they are going out of business. Too bad they have some good soap. So if you see it buy it.

 

[Dog Whiskerer]

Yeah, seems to be the case. I remember looking at the store where I had last purchased the 11oz pump dispenser soap, not seeing it, and wondering why. Yet their website still lists the products.

wow, decent shave cream and one I could purchase on the shelf.

 

[Egmont]

Unfortunate. Good value, good performance. I will miss this cream.

Too bad.

I still have a small stock squirreled away.

I have one spare, might have to pick up another. I use it off and on, find that I need to use a bit more than, e.g., TOBS, but it's a good, cheap product.

It's called Herblock's Law: If you really like it, they'll quit making it.

I found 5 tubes (6oz) of 4 in 1 shave cream at a Giant supermarket. They were closeout priced a $1.12/tube. They don't seem to be restocking the shelf, but the still have the pump in the ladies area.

Found a press release from 3/4/19 that includes this:

Windmill's portfolio of brands are sold nationwide and internationally to over 150,000 retail locations, including: natural stores, independent pharmacies, grocery, mass market, chain drugstores, warehouse clubs.

No mention of shaving products in the release.

That's a shame. Decently price cream that worked pretty darn well.

I liked it much better than Cremo. Was a decent travel cream as it handled different water types well and you could use it brushless or, with a brush, it whipped into a nice lather. Good all around product available locally. Too bad.

 

[Frozenshades]

Interesting. One I've never tried but always seen at my local grocer. Might have to pick some up just to try it while I can if I see it next time I'm shopping...

sad to hear of anyone closing up shop, but, a few years back, I found KMF shave creams to be sub-par and returned them to Whole Foods, who graciously gave full refund.

 

[Frankie0210]

I checked my local Whole Foods and none to be found. I never used the stuff, but a lot of people liked it!!

Decent cream, not great, but decent. Seemed to get at least one bottle every Christmas from one of the grandkids.

I won't miss it, as I didn't find it sufficiently protective - more of a lotion than a cream. Still, it's too bad for those that liked it as it was inexpensive, readily available, and an easy product to lather.

Went through a tube of KMF a few years ago. Seemed to perform well for the $.
