    For now, I think it was user error. I don’t recall having difficulty lathering this before but the last time I used it was 9/22. I think that if I bloom it, and have more water in the brush, it will create a better lather. There is no problem with the Wald synthetics. I’ll give it a try again next month, but would be interested to know if it has a reputation for being difficult to lather. This month I’m using a different soap for each shave.

      There is a batch of opulence that scoot messed up, and it simply won’t lather. He never took responsibility for it publicly, though 🙄

      I have a tub from that batch.

        Ugh. That’s not cool. I’ll give it another go in December. I still have nine different soaps to use this month.

            I’m not organized enough with shaving to plan ahead. I decide on setup before the shave (often the night before), and if I have time, I shoot a photo. But planning is the way to go. That’ll be a New Year’s resolution.

              I like planning a few days at a time. It allows me to think in themes and explore differences

                I think planning ahead is the way to go. So far, the only time I’ve planned ahead is the night before Lather Games starts, and then I dial in those days which seem obvious to me and assess the rest as the games progress.
