One think I love about KMF is how lubricating it is: far more so than any other cream or soap I've tried (though I've only tried a handful). I think this might have something to do with having very hard water where I live (NYC).
Usually, as I'm building a lather, I'll add a bit of unscented KMF to whatever soap or cream I'm using that day. It really helps a lot. Sometimes I'll use it alone, and then it's very slick indeed.
This might sound strange, but try - at least once - using it without a brush. Just rub it into your face with a bit of water with your fingers. It doesn't build a proper lather, of course, but it does provide a very smooth, slick surface. Incredibly comfortable shaves.
If you like it, they do sell it in larger pump bottles - cheaper for the amount you get, and harder to confuse with toothpaste!
