Post Shave Balm

[Profcool]

Hi all, I need to pick up a new post shave balm. Recently I have been using this

or this

both of which I really like, but I am interested in what others use and recommend. Ideally unscented as I always apply a fragrance every day.

Thanks!

Not strictly an aftershave Balm but I like using Cerave moisturisering cream or lotion.

I've not used any of the above but of the lower priced ones I have used (RSC, Creightons, Nivea) the one by Lea is by far the best one I have used.

It's not unscented though, a very mild marine style scent.

Worth a £2 or so if you are placing an order from Connaught Shaving.

I use Dermalogica Calm Water Gel - the best after shave product that I have tried.

I’ll second the 3in1 balm from Lea as great bang for your buck.
For outright performance it’s any of the scents from Barts Balm.

These are all of my balms all very nice and light scented..the Clinique is unscented and so is the king of shaves, the Blue de Chanel I haven’t yet used and the SV pro victis although is very expensive is also unscented and excellent after a bad shave

Myrsol emulsion

This is one I would like to try at some point as I’ve read that the guy who made it used it for shaving with a straight and as a post shave..intrigued to try it

I really like the ES intensive moisturising Balm, really helping my dry skin areas

L'Oréal Birch Sap Balm is very good value
It's a very light balm , not at all greasy and not strongly scented.

Boots Freshwood is another good balm for a low price.

Pre De Provence balm, (on the pricey side) is also very good.

Pure Aloe Vera Gel is excellent as a post shave- perfect in warmer weather.

There's always Nivea balms, all varieties perform well.

I’ve had the L’Oréal birch sap balm and it was very good and not much scent to it at all

Try this. Not an aftershave but I use it after the alum block. It only costs a couple of bucks. Has a slight fragrance but it's gone after a couple of minutes and any fragrance can be used over the top of it.

Proraso White (Sensitive) balm is really nice and pretty neutral scent wise. It’s the only one I use right now

Yeah 3 in 1 Lea works for me, they also have a mentholated one, very cool!
