AOS Cream...
I started out using the AOS sandalwood with an AOS Brush and my method has given good results:
Soak the brush in hot water for the duration of my shower (about 10 mins)
Place a snurdle of cream in the lather bowl
take the brush out of the water and LIGHTLY flick it once or twice. The object is to have a brush heavy with water that doesn't drip.
Whip the lather up.
I would say you aren't getting enough water in the mix from the sound of it.
Hope this helps!

I had a similar problem when I used T&H creams, having it dry out. I found adding a little vegetable glycerin helped the lather to retain moisture longer, lasting longer before drying out. I found the glycerin I got at a local health foods shop.

Do you have any way to control the humidity in the area you shave in?
