Can the brush/bowl affect lather
I don't know what I am doing wrong here. I cannot for the life of me get a decent lather out of Castle Forbes lavender. I've read a good amount of how to's and am wondering if my brush and/or my bowl are preventing me from good lather. First of all I'm a 20 year old college student so I don't have the greatest amount of funds. That being said my "bowl" is a ceramic coffee mug. My brush is something my mom bought my dad years ago from a Walmart type store with what I believe to be horse hair bristles.
I know CS creams are good stuff, so can my poor quality supplies be at fault?
BTW...I have managed to get a decent lather from William's MUG shaving soap however, that soap dries me out like no other.
Thanks,
Dan
