Late bloomer? Not in full bloom? Budding shaver? Calling @richgem - we need some help with Jim's CT! @Queen of Blades
There is no need to bloom a soap puck. Unless it is a Williams soap puck and then it is worthwhile. (Just FYI...the latter comment is based on 40 years of experience using Williams).
No blooming of soaps here, but if you put a blooming onion in front of me, well that's an entire different story.
