I've just recently purchased my first brush and soap. A kingsley badger along with casswell massey almond soap. I thought I did really well building my first few batches of lather however when it came to actually using it I'm finding the lather is drying up or practically disappearing before I can even finish applying it. I try adding more water in small amounts but it seems to just be counter productive and kill my lather. I haven't found any reviews on this particular soap so I'm wondering if anyone else has used it and can tell me whether it's my rookie abilities or did I just waste my money on a subpar product.
