I will certainly give it a try in the morning. Meanwhile, may I ask you to try rubbing the EJ soap on the face and then creating lather. I certain you will not be disappointed. My lather was so dense that I literally could not shave with Mach 5 - I mean I would have had to press VERY hard to get the blades to make contact with skin and actually grab some hair.
That's what I don't like about EJ soaps. I have no problem producing a lather, but I find that it is too thick and lacks the slickness necessary for a good shave. I've added water until the lather becomes runny, and still it wasn't as slick as most other soaps or creams.
