How to lather Otoko Organics Soap with a Boar Brush

This is the first time for me trying to do something like a review - so please bear with me...

Otoko Organics was my first soap and I still love it - but I have read a couple of times how people have issues getting a good lather out of it - so here we go - please also bear in mind, that my brush - Semogue owners club boar - is only ~2 weeks old and far from being fully broken in.

1. Soak the brush in Hot water for ~5 min

That's how the wet brush looks

2. 3 hard wrist action movements to get most of the water out - that's how the brush looks afterwards - no dripping at all

3. now it's time to load the brush - I would say 10-15 seconds max - this is a very concentrated soap and you don't need more

4. and now lather in the bowl - pictures are after 30 sec, 1 min and 2 min - all done - please enjoy!

Alfredus, thank you for showing the method you use. I notice that your soap is coloured blue whereas mine is coloured white. I don't think they have two different kinds? Anyway, I'll give your method a try and see what happens. I'll come back to you!
