    Here is what I do. I wet my brush and put a dab of shave cream about the size of my fingertip and work the lather on my face directly. I can only say it works for me even if it isn't the prettiest way.

    Ronnie, Part of how much you are going to use depends on the creme, the brush and your own habits. I happen to use around a almond sized amount with most cremes. I get enough for my usual 3 passes and enough extra to clean the bowl and sink.

    It is called a Snurdle, BTW the amount that you use, and it varies how much cream that is...
    I would recommend starting with about an almond size dollop then work from there if you are using a lather bowl....

    You must have very soft water! Yep, it's a small dab then experiment from there.
