They really require very little water, or they simply become sloppy.
Flick most of the water out of the brush & begin building your lather. As it forms, add a few drops & whip in well. Be cautious with this, if you add the same amount as you would any other cream, you'll ruin it.
It really is worth persisting with as it will reward you! Avoid the vaseline though, as once you get the lather right it, its addition will only detract from it.
