What I love most about this product is that I no longer need my bath tub to shave. My skin is too sensitive for even the sensitive-varieties of products like Veet, and I have experienced only minor razor burn using this. However, I do have to use a moderate amount of this cream. Price is hefty, but I really wanted to try it, and in the future a coupon is a must. I did notice though that recently Kroger had an electronic store-coupon, and there was a printable available at the time also; stacking the coupons could probably make for a decent deal, but my local store did not carry it. Hopefully the price will go down. I also like how I can just rub in the left over cream and get the lotion-like benefit. As for the clogging, I usually keep a cup of water to rinse. Yes, this does add some time, but I just sit and watch TV while I'm at it :-).
