I had troubles with lathering MR before, but it is my favorite cream. How much are you using? I tend to use an almond sized amount and make sure to feed it plenty of water.
Less water might be the trick. First time with a product? Be open minded and do not compare it with previous cream, as they are all different. I apologize, I did not mean to sound patronizing.
I have never used the new Musgo Real, but the original.
