Good morning. Wednesday:

TV Superspeed w/7 O'Clock Black
Omega 31020
Blenheim Bouquet soap
Thayer's Lavender witch hazel
Poor Man's Pink
Fitjar Fjellheim A/S cream

Three days with the Blenheim with three different brushes: Alibaba, T3 and the Omega. The best lather? The boar. Does the snooty English soap love the pig? The world is turned upside down.....
Best,

No, no, all is as it should be... :wink:

I hadn't used an English soap in months before Monday, and after 3 days and 3 different boars with Harris almond, I am not entirely convinced that it loves the pig. I'll try it with another boar tomorrow, and then a badger. Maybe I'm just done with English soaps?

Regardless, glad the 31020 is working for you.

Mine is nearly broken-in and lathering quite nicely.
