So I thought I would try something. I put a puck of VDH soap in a mug (didn't want to ruin any of my good stuff on an experiment) and placed it on one of my wifes electric candle warmers. My thought was warm it a bit and lather up with a nice warm lather. I forgot I put it on there and when I came back it was completely melted. So then I moistened a a brush and dipped the tip in the liquid. I then face lathered and got the best performance from VDH I have ever had. I may do it again sometime.
