    Has anyone tried it, any experiences or reviews to share? I have it and tried a couple of times but wasn't crazy about it. But I'm wondering if it was user error on my part so I thought I would check with you guys.

    If I'm thinking of the same stuff, it doesn't really lather right?

    That's right, it's just a layer/film of the butter, no foam or lather at all.

    I tried it a long time ago when it first came out, back when dollar shave club was pushing their shave butter on tv pretty hard, it seemed like calling non lathering cream butter, was all the rage. I didnt enjoy it, not that it didnt work, just seemed so uncivilized to not lather.

    I tried it again Monday and shockingly enough it actually worked well. Weird to have no lather or "wet" slippery stuff at all, just the butter. But it worked and no irritation or issues of any kind. Quick cold water rinse and any left over butter was just rubbed in as something of a lotion.

    I tried it, also Cremo. I couldn't get past the non lathering part. It was hard for me to remember where I shaved. hehe.
