I often read that people have trouble picking up enough soap on their brush to face lather. This can be because the soap is very hard (MWF?), the brush is too soft (some 2-band hair?) or the brush is too floppy.
So I have taken to using soap pucks as well as shave sticks as shave sticks, ie just rubbing the soap directly on my face. Then I face lather with my brush. Saves time too as you can start out with a wetter brush.
I know it may be more elegant to take soap directly from the puck but I hardly see the functional advantage over rubbing the soap directly on the face.
Am I missing something??
