Not actually aftershave but might work!

[Jack Force]

My dog has a itchy spot on his neck he has been scratching which we are treating with this:

Petkin, Oatmeal Enriched ItchStick:

Ingredients: Pure witch hazel, Aloe Vera Gel, Oatmeal, Comfrey, Vitamins A, B and E, Bitter Taste.

I looked at the ingredients and my first thought was I could probably use this post shave! Well, depending on whats in there to cause a bitter taste!

Have you ever stumbled on an usual shave related pre or post stuff or even hardware that wasnt intended for that purpose?

Mmmm, might be a bit woof on the skin! :icon_rolleyes:

I've often put my porridge to soak in the morning, and carried some oats in my hand to the bathroom as a preshave facescrub. After the "pikey" comment re cracked eggs, I must assure you that they do not then go back in the pot! And see a previous post where I used Germoline as an emergency shaving cream. I once tried to use a "brazilian" as a shaving brush, but the reaction was less than favourable, needed more Baileys apparently!

Go and read the ingredients list on a bottle of mouthwash. On paper, it's usable as aftershave, but I doubt that any of us would want to use it.

IanM, -
Aqua Velva was a mouthwash. GI's started drinking it, so to preserve sales, a bittering agent was added and relaunched as aftershave. Colgate green mouthwash I used up as a preshave- to derision from my dentist. It wasn't the best, but refreshing in summer.

One of the uses for 'Original' Listerine in the '20's and '30's was as an Aftershave. Listerine also made a shave cream. You may have seen the razor banks:

[Professor Blighty]

Listerine isn't even suitable as a mouthwash, don't mind an aftershave!

 

[Johnus]

They did make some very nice razor banks.
You have to remember what time it was in the US. Prohibition. It probably wasn't easy to find many alcohol based aftershaves.

I know a VET I asked about this well she said dog skin is probley more sensative than ours so it'll be ok for you to use as for bitter taste its just to stop dog licking of the treatment unless you like licking yourself this wont be a problem
