Got a puck for a little over a dollar just to see what it was about. Can't say it's the thing for me, and the kids think it smells like bugspray. So, what to do? Pitch it? Suck it up and use it? Ah-HA! Williams has just become my new 'OMG my new badger brush stinks and I need to lather it a few dozen extra times' soap. So, every night, my valentines day gift of an AOS badger brush gets a nice warm soak and a thorough lathering with the Williams. Don't use up my good stuff, and the brush gets about 3x the usage compared to if I were just using it to shave or more if it's a rotation.
