Santa Noir smush provided by u/worbx Thank you very much kind sir! I rather enjoyed this one. A great holiday soap that would work all winter long. Lather, as with every HOM product I have tried, was just fantastic. I bought a set of Eigengrau I have been saving for this winter. I thought the balm would go nicely with the smush of santa noir. It really did and I absolutely love this scent. I thought it was wintery enough for Christmas in July plus it was already in my dopp kit for tomorrow.

For the challenge I wanted to take a moment to say something nice about everyone here. If I lose the challenge point for not choosing a specific person, so be it. Since before I had started wet shaving I was lucky to find this sub right away. My very first soap purchases were from artisan soap makers because of the passion and knowledge of the people right here and I'm so glad yall were at it already so I could learn from everyone's guidance. People's willingness to take time out of their busy lives to send some of their soaps or share hardware with strangers from the internet really took me aback. To be honest my experience in wetshaving would not have been as enjoyable without the kick ass community of awesome people here on the sub.

So in short thanks so much to everyone that contributes to or has contributed to r/wetshaving and especially those of you who take the time to show the new guys some love. It goes a long way. There is so much knowledge available here for anyone interested that was built entirely by the experience of its members free of charge. That is awesome.

Also thank you to the lather games judges who work Hella hard to make all this happen for us. A labor of love no doubt so it's only fitting we send some love your way too.
