My uberlather is not working

Hey, Ive been trying to make uberlather for the past couple of days and im wondering what im doing wrong.
Ingredients:(all low level)
-Van Der Hagen soap(i can usualy get a decent lather with this)
-Glicerin(is there a difference between that and glycerin with a Y)
- Neutrogena shave cream.

Now is there something about the cream that maybe doesnt work since its Neutrogena and all. or is it the Glicerin i dont know when i put them all together all i get is like a very thick cream but not a lather at all after like 2 mins of whipping with my brush.
Thanks for the help

Glycerin is an emulsifier. The stuff that makes toothpaste and like that creamy. Try doing it without the glycerin and see what happens. Not sure if the spelling difference means anything.
