    I'm down to the last dregs of the puck and even though it moves around, so what? It still lathers up no problem for me. I have the logo bowl.

    TBH I never have been able to like this stuff. Even when I build a lather that looks rich and thick it is thin and gone on my face. I use it to go along with a cream when I do use it. I'll never buy it again when it's gone. The jug will be for small nick knacks.

You .... if you have the same experience I've had, will always be holding the puck with a thumb to keep it stationary while you're loading the brush. If I had it to do over again, and knew what I know now, I would have just bought a refill and put it in a container.
    If I recall correctly, Jimmy, I had some luck with wetting the bottom of the
    puck fairly well and then pressing it down until there was some adherence.
    I think it was enough to get the puck to stay still while I loaded the brush!

    You're right on the money with the beautiful part
