If you clean your brush with an anti-oil soap (mild, obviously), it should be no problem. Once a week, I put a dab of hand-soap in my palm, and work up a lather with my brushes. I use the same soap...

I used it when I first started, got better at shaving, and started blaming poor shaves on the oil (though the reality was a drop-off in beard prep).

I tend to do a much more fully-rounded ritual...
