Strangely enough I used Lush cream for the first time a few days ago. A tub of Prince from an electric shaving mate who got given it as an unwanted gift.
It's a brushless cream so just needs to be applied by hand. From what I've seen online, the Lush creams have a pretty bad rep, but my experience was largely positive.
You just need to look at it in a completely different light from "standard" creams/soaps; you won't get masses of lather (none at all, in fact) and the biggest drawback is that it can be quite messy to apply.
In terms of providing lubrication, it does this in abundance; and considering this is one of the chief purposes of a cream, it gets a big tick here. And the post-shave feel is superb, the only time I haven't required a balm following a shave. The scent was pleasant enough, but nothing special.
In short, if you can live with no lather and cleaning your razor once you're done, it's a pretty good product. Just don't expect it to be like your standard cream/soap fare..
