Opinions and protocols on using Stephan's Smooth Shaving Creme?

[BladeRunner001]

Hi guys,
Has anyone tried Stephan's Smooth Conditioning Shaving Creme?

http://www.nationwidebeauty.com/Pro...-Supply/STEPHAN-SMOOTH-SHAVE-CREAM-15oz-R0065

Opinions would be welcome.

Also welcome are protocols on how people use it...i.e.,

1. Do you put in on and wash it off and lather and shave as usual?
2. Do you put usual lather on top of this creme?
3. Just shave with this creme and not bother with your usual lather?

Thanks,
-Robert

Never used it, but from the link I'd guess you're to use it like you might use Proraso Pre-post??

Hi Kingfisher
I haven't used Proraso either...so, I have no basis to compare.

I must say that after using this thing consistently for ~3 weeks, I get amazing shaves. It preps the beard like nothing else. I do wash it off before lathering and shaving though

Anyone else with similar experiences or other products that compare? The only downside is that it has mineral oil, but it is probably this ingredient more than anything else that makes the smooth shave possible . Not too crazy about having it on my face for too long
