I get a decent lather, but usually have to relather half way through the shave as it dries out. no complaints other than that.
I love KMF creams. I've used it the past two days. I apply the cream to my fingertips and massage it on my face, then begin using the brush. I start with a somewhat dry brush, and then add water as needed. I've never had any issues with KMF creams except when I tried to use them brushless, as they are actually intended to be used. I prefer the Cool Mint and Key Lime Pie. Still need to pick up the Patchouli and Lavender!

I have the Lavender. Not crazy about the scent, but it lathers OK. Maybe you need to use a bit more than other high-end creams but it's so cheap who cares.

I finally got it to work, had to use a lot less water! i have a new silver tip brush that holds a lot more water than I'm used to. thanks again guys for the help
Well toggling the water amount sure made a world of difference. I had been using the Kiss my face moisture shave (vanilla earth) as part of my preshave cream to lessen the impact on my pucks. Today I actually shaved with it and was very impressed. I was able to get a great coat of lather using my boar brush.
