I recently purchased a 275ml bladder of Proraso Wood & Spice shaving cream. I already had the cologne so I knew I'd like the smell.
Here's the thing. I've used Proraso cream plenty of times, and it's always been fairly easy. Squirt small amount on wet brush, bring to face, start lathering/adding water as needed. I can't do that with the Single Blade. It comes out fairly thick, to where if I try to put it on a brush, it just falls off. I have to bowl lather it after smooshing it down so the brush doesn't just beat the piece of cream around the bowl. And even then there's still hard chunks of the cream left in the shaving bowl.
Has anyone else had this problem? It might be a storage issue, but the entire line hasn't been around long enough for there to be one. Worst comes to worst, I figure I can find a bowl to empty the bladder into and just let it harden into soap, but I've got plenty of soaps already and would rather use this as intended.
