I take it that for now you'd like to keep it somewhat cheap? Do you have a Wal Mart (or equivalent) where you live? If so they will more likely than not sell Proraso (also rebranded as C.O. Bigelow), which I would highly recommend over Van der Hagen or Williams. It is one of the easiest soaps to lather and is a quality product. That way you can at least eliminate one variable...
