With that said, I much prefer face lathering because you can control the consistency of the foam as you go. If that mayo feel is too thick, you can easily run some hot water on the base of the brush, shake the excess, and re-apply and it will thin it out just right.

At this point I don't think I'll ever see the need for a scuttle/bowl since I do just fine this way.
I like mayo!


I did add a touch of water from time to time, but the ratio seemed much more finicky when face lathering. If I had added too much while bowl lathering I'd just swirl it up ferociously until I regained the thickness desired. When the lather goes thin on the face lather, it's harder to regain. Well, that's not quite true, as a quick dab at the soap puck restored thickness to the lather.
