Used the bicarb water-softening technique (1/2 a teaspoon in the water); as with all Creighton's creams, without it, Trumpers seem to generate a frothy lather in my hard water. That being said, the coconut oil cream is superb - natural scent, lathers beautifully once the water has been softened a touch, and provides superb cushioning and lubrication.
