Re: Silvertip question and lathering technique
In addition to face lathering I find that only soaking the first inch or less of the brush tips helps some of the super soft badger brushes to eat a bit less cream. The water will still wick up and keep the rest of the knot soft while you lather.

I'd also like to add that sometimes I don't soak my brush at all. I just rinse with warm water, shake lightly, then load with soap.
Done that way the brush (Simpson two band) retains more backbone. The lather is a little different too. Thicker.
