Frasers shaving cream problems

Well, got a tub of Frasers shaving cream yesterday, and right off the bat couldn't get it to lather at all. It was like wax gobules on the bottom of bowl, and I got aggravated. I am reading that some other people are having the same problem. Today, I stirred the tub of cream with a butter knife very well. The cream got softer and more creamy, and it lathered very well. I'm guessing that maybe the ingredients weren't mixed well or that they have separated. Good thing I didn't throw it out.
 
They must have had a bad batch. I have a jar from the last batch (they only produce a few times per year) and it gives an wonderful thick, creamy lather and I love the lemony scent as well. I'm glad you were able to get it to work for you. It would be a shame to have to throw out a full pound of shaving cream.
 
Nice cream a pretty good value. The only time I have had a problem with ordering creams has been in the dead heat of summer. I had a similar problem with separation. With remixing it resolved the problem to a great extent. I won't order creams in the summer from now on. I don't think that this was your problem given the current ambient temperature. Just something to consider when you purchase creams.
 
I also just received a new tub of Fraser's shave cream. I could not get mine to lather at all after many attempts.

After reading your post, I tried stirring the cream. I stirred it top to bottom with a long spoon for over a minute. The cream got softer and creamier just like yours, however when I tried a shave, it still would not lather.
Stirring the product is not a solution for this most recent batch.
