Exact setup as yesterday. Love the soap and definitely getting it plenty slick enough. My impression from day 1 of using it has now changed positively.

The balm is top quality too. Light menthol feel when applying but not so much that using in winter is not possible. Leaves no greasy or stick feeling and scent lasts a few hours. May end up getting more of these over time
