It is very unusual , Cella is suposed to be a very good croap and should lather with ease ( note...I have not used Cella ) but many shavers swear by it, it sounds like you may have had a little too much water ,in your brush to begin with or maybe added to much when lathering.Exec Shaving pre
Semogue 2000
Cella
ATT M2/Astra
Alum
Extro Bay Rum
The 2000 was on debut and paired with my first experience with Cella, it was disappointing.
I couldn't get the combination to lather if I'd still been trying an hour later.
Brush has had 6/8 lather/dry cycles and seemed soft enough but I couldn't get the bubbles out of the lather,...what lather there was thin and didn't last.
The first pass was so poor that I mixed up some Vulfix cream which saved the day.
Mebbe it was me, but the Cella had nowhere near the cushion and glide I'd experienced with even the cheapest cream.
The alum rub was 'entertaining', to put it mildly, presumably due to the first pass. The Extro was expectedly bracing, but I'm off to apply some Cade a/s balm.
Not a fan of soap so far,....:-(
Try again sometime and watch how much water you are adding.
