Yes, that's exactly what happens, which causes the dryness I was eluding to above.
Yes but once the product reaches atmospheric pressure the volatile gasses leave the product. What's more, the propellants are not organic solvents and therefore should not dissolve the free fatty acids, triglycerides and cholesterols naturally found in the sebum that is secreted onto the skin by your sebaceous glands.

I ordered up some Proraso Red formula and tried it this am - it's comparable to the Aveeno! I also ordered some Mitchell's shaving soap but haven't tried it yet.

The point I'm trying to make is that just because a product comes in a can doesn't mean it's bad. I feel like I'm posting about the latest Ferrari on a classic car forum and no one wants to hear about it because they're all stuck in the past.
