Review (4/5): Works as expected, good value .
Looks like sidewalk chalk, in a paper/foil tube you peel off as necessary.
Very simple to use, rub it on your just-washed wet face and use a shaving brush to whip it into a lather.
Works without a brush, but much better with one. I was not offended by the smell, just smells like soap.
Gives a good shave, not expensive. Would buy again.
