Irisch Moos --- Dried up?

So I borrowed some of this from a friend. I'd never used it before. He has it in a clear container and in looking at it, it appeared that someone had squirted it out of a tube into this dish. It had dried out just enough become like a soft soap and it was AWESOME. Any of y'all done this with your creams? It seems that this was done intentionally...

I have done the same with a couple shaving creams which came in tubes and worked fine.
If you are the guy who doesnt like shaving cream tubes,just transfer them to tubs and let the containers open for a couple days to allow them to dry out a little bit.They will work then like a soft italian soap and loading them with a brush would be easier.

Fantastic --- glad to know that it won't affect the performance. Thanks.

Good to know; I wondered what that would be like.
