Overview

John Fox Potter (1817-1899) was educated in the east and carved his idyllic homestead, “Lake Side Farm,” from the Wisconsin wilderness. A community leader he was at the founding of the Republican party, and the first Republican, an abolitionist – Black Republican, to serve Wisconsin in the 1st Congressional District, a longtime Democratic stronghold. On the eve of the Civil War he battled the Southern “fire-eaters” on the floor of Congress with his oratory and his fists. Potter “scalped” a fellow congressman; leveled a future Supreme Court jurist; and when challenged, under thecode duello, for insisting that fellow abolitionist’s views be heard – his choice of weapons was the infamous, and barbarous, “bowie knife.” He was a man of action, and a man of introspection. He hosted progressive thinkers at his rural lakeside retreat; including Thomas Wentworth Higginson a radical clergyman who authored the vows attacking the concept of coverture for feminist Lucy Stone’s wedding, and carried on a “correspondence” with Emily Dickinson for decades. After a brief, but tumultuous, service as a Consul to the Canadas, he retired to his “Lake Side Farm” and hosted a group of social and political thinkers and activists from Milwaukee – The Phantom Club.

New formula
Size: 1.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: New and Improved Formula!
I love the original aqua cream but it seems they have changed the formula and it is a much thinner, more liquidy product. The scent has also changed, though it’s fairly neutral, and it now comes in a smaller glass container compared to the original plastic.

Amazing Product
Size: 0.42 Fl Oz (Pack of 6)
My absolute favorite lotion. My only regret is it doesn’t come in a larger container! Makes your skin so soft, it absorbs in the skin very nicely and smells amazing. It lasts all day and doesn’t leave skin feeling greasy. Buy it and thank me later

Best lotion I have ever used!
Size: 2.53 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If you like a very strong fragrance, you will love this. This smell more like chocolate. I absolutely love the smell. It's a little oily when you first put it on, but after about 10 minutes there is no stickiness. It's really good at keeping your skin soft. If you have ashy spots, like elbows, this will get rid of that within a couple applications. This is also thicker consistency, whereas the "Radiant" version is watery. The Radiant version is easy to find, but this version is harder to find. So, if you like it, I would recommend you by enough to last. I get the feeling this is not going to be available soon.
