not quite sure but I think he is older than me maybe..... but I have better Genetics...... and Oil of Olay HEHEHE I was born in 65

Gotcha by one year although I don't care to lose this contest. Born in 64, I just LOOK younger

You guys are bragging about the wrong things! Older...younger...genetics...who cares! The real question is...who is better looking?

How did the BVLGARI Man in Black soap perform?

How did the BVLGARI Man in Black soap perform?

I tried the lather method shown by @Bogeyman and it didn't work well. Probably because of the puck being loose in the tub. I'll try that method again with a tub that has a poured soap in it but I have a feeling even if it worked I'd miss the feel of the brush working the lather up. The scent was nice thugh and I think the soap is a good one just lacking some residual slickness. More testing is needed.

Interesting Lather Method

At first I was skeptical watching this, but the objective part of my brain realized that there is one constant in this method: the same amount of water is used every time, i.e., repeatability. I may try this on a whim. :unsure:
