Or:
2) After soaking the brush keep it really wet. Just allow any excess to run out while you hold the brush still. Maybe a tiny flick if you must. Then work the brush into the soap while pumping the brush frequently. You need the water to dissolve the soap and then suck the soapy water back into the brush. So keep pumping, the brush will load with soap eventually. Then make the actual lather in a mixing bowl/hand/face.
What DOESN'T work is running a wet brush gently around the puck of soap.:gl:
