Any lessons learned / tips from this, Michael?
I am in whisker growing mode so just lathered a few soaps last night. Seems Trumper's Violet doesn't work as well as others. I got it from some unknown online vendor, and am thinking it might be stale? It is the only soap that doesn't really show signs of having been used - compared to Tabac, L'Occitane, C&E Nomad, etc - everything else I have... Maybe I must try hotter on it before lathering to enhance loading
Finished off with L'Occitane CADE soap and ASB - nice
Cheers
Ivo
