Dr. Bronner's makes a shave cream that is based on a Castile soap base into which a lot of organic sucrose is added. If the cream dries out, it becomes quite sticky and sugar crystals can precipitate out of solution causing issues for razor edge. As long as the cream is kept properly hydrated, the soap is slick and the sugar is wonderful for your skin. However, it is so different from typical shave soaps that I rarely use it. However, it might work as a preshave or a postshave.
