I've tailored my soaps to my water. Another way to say it, the non water friendly soaps whispered to me, 'don't you have something better to do?'

This x's 1000 here in middle Tennessee it might as well be rocks flowing through the faucet.

I'm a big advocate of palm lathering until you find out what works for a particular soap/cream. I like to feel my lather.

Isn't it funny how water changes in such a short distance, here in west Tennessee we have artisan well water that is sweet and soft, lather explodes from it, Tc

oh I can't take credit for the glue dots in the bowl, I can't remember who suggested it, maybe Geezer, but it works, I still have the bowl just in case I want to take a break from face lathering. Tc

Razorfeld was quite the advocate of modifying plain bowls with glue/ epoxy.
