Just got my first Nannys Soap delivery - some cream soaps and some of the new Olive Oil range.

I tried the Moroccan Sands Olive oil soap tonight - wow this soap smells like heaven! I can't describe it except to say it is heavenly, exotic and intoxicating. Wow!!!!

Just I've problem though - I can't get a decent lather.

I've tried my normal routine which works with other hard soaps and creams - swirl the brush around in the cream for say 5 seconds and then lather in a warm bowl. But this doesn't work with the olive oil soap.

Any tips?

WAIT!!

There's a recent thread with info about how to load up the brush and then lather that soap the easiest way. I am too lazy to find it myself but it's around here somewhere.

Is this the thread?

The conclusion seems to be more water rather than more product?
Confused am I ...

Sorted!

I changed the brush from Horse hair to a Super Badger one.

I made it wetter than normal ie I didn't drip as much.

I loaded longer than normal - around 15 seconds or so.

The result was a slick, creamy lather!

Oh and the scent - wow!

Alarm set for 5:30. Can't wait.

Excited am I :)
