I saw this at Grocery Outlet for $2.50 tube. So i figured what the heck. I had already tried Toms Mint - rather disappointed in it's lack of slickness and moisturizing. (**Mind you i am comparing this to my "go to" RSC Moisturing Cream**) All in all i give it a 6/10, it was okay and i'll use up the tube.. but by no means am i buying another one. When others emphasize how hard the creme is, you best believe it. This stuff requires so much water it's ridiculous. It does lather nicely when you achieve the right balance of creme and water. However because the creme is hard.... it makes it a bit harder to break down in the mug. I am constantly finding clumps of the stuff even after i rinse my mug. It does have a subtle pleasant scent, nothing over powering. Another down side for me is that i must be allergic to Calendula / Marigold cause if i'm having a particularly slow shave with my str8 its begins to irritate my face. I do have allergies so maybe that's why - dunno.... Regardless because i'm cheap i vowed to use the stuff until it's gone and each time my face gets irritated. So no more Calendula for me. If it works for you great! Over all about 6/10
Pros: price $2.50, subtle scent, lather but requires LOTS water,
Cons: irritated my face - possible allergic, lacks slickness and moisturizing, hard cream and clumps up,
