My cryogen arrived yesterday and decided to do a test lather and see what all the fuss was about. I took a slice, put into my bowl, loaded and finished as a face lather. I found it to lather easily, good texture. Now the more important details.....
scent....it's straight menthol. Personally, I don't think it needs anything else, it's a pure potent menthol which I enjoyed.
Chill.....now I'm not the most experienced with menthol shave creams, but I will say my face was tingling shortly after I started face lathering, and this increased with each new application. Now, as I was not doing a shave, the duration of face-lather contact was not as long had it been a full shave experience, but I definitely got a good chilling effect.
duration of face tingling.....it's been a good 10 minutes and the face still has some tingle and some residual menthol scent. I'm very happy to have picked it up.
I'm looking foward to a full shave experience tomorrow.
