Long day, didn’t have a chance to shave until after little Walden was in bed. I dropped him off at daycare, went for a mountain bike ride, went back to his daycare in the afternoon for “trunk-or-treat”, then went straight to a fall festival at a nearby farm until it was time to get him home to bed. Whew!

I’m a discerning shaver, and I know for a fact that I prefer lathers with “more soap, more water”. Still, I decided to put Vegan Omnibus to the test and loaded very lightly. I had enough lather, and the shave seemed to go ok. I can see why some people might try and be frugal and get by with lathers like this one, but man it’s so much nicer with more soap.
