even if you do dip the tips and get too much, most brushes should be able to gently rubbed on the rim of the tub and squeegee some off. better too much than not enough until you learn the amounts needed.
Shaving Cream in a Tub Question???

There's a simple fix - hold the tub upside-down! Virtually all of the water stays in the brush that way.
I tried using a stick to "measure" out some cream, but really it's just easier to swirl the brush tips. In an upside-down tub, of course.

That is a good idea
Tub upside down to load? Well, duh, call me stupid! So much for a brilliant public education. 
Great tip, thank you.
Great tip, thank you.
.....if i could, i would use a small tea spoon made of the finest silver.......
.........but since i don't have one....... i just dip the brush tips into the cream.........

Don't shave the cats! Your wife may appreciate the leftovers to shave her legs with, though.

She thinks all my shaving gear is just a fad that I will forget about and has no interest in any of it.
The ticket to creams is getting a consistent amount in your bowl. I use an ice cream sample spoon I picked up years ago at some ice cream shop.
You can use a 1/8 tsp measuring spoon (which is a little bigger than my ice cream sample spoon).
Once you figure out how much to dig out, you can go back day after day and get a consistent lather using a consistent amount of product.
What scuttle is that?
