I just got my semogue 2000 from the vintage scent and its lather is smooth and voluptuous. Simply a fine brush which outperforms any brush I've used. It's HUGE and has a fantastic handle which is easy to hold and very comfy.
Cheers!

I know you said $30 is your limit but IMO- unless you like stiff brushes/specifically boar brushes, why bother? If you go into the $30-$50 range there are quite a few great vulfixes...

Thanked: 137+1 on khaos - I have a Semogue 2015 silvertip, and it's absolutely great - soft, but with enough backbone that I can use it on hard soaps and creams alike. It sells for around $50US, IIRC - a bit over your budget, but a great brush nonetheless. There's some super brushes available in that range, if you're willing to spend a little more.
Alternatively, if you fancy yourself a woodworker, you could buy a Golden Nib silvertip or super knot for cheap (~20-25USD for silvertip, depending on sizes of course), then make yourself a handle you like the look of to put said knot in. Work required, but a custom brush for less than $50 is not to be sneezed at.

So I used the brush for the first time today and it's really nice. I don't know if my tweezerman was just really beat (It was given to me in a razor sale) but this one really holds the water and heat. Made my lather what it's supposed to be. Soft on the face, lathers like crazy with the cake soap. I would definatley buy it again, I had no idea what I was missing with a crappy brush.
