Hey guys,

If you had to explain to a teenager who just started shaving, what aftershave actually is, what would you say? I came across an interesting article on this: https://www.groomjournal.com/what-does-aftershave-do-and-how-to-use-it/ Any thoughts?

The article says that aftershave has "antiseptic properties like alcohol and witch hazel." - but doesn't cologne have alcohol too? How come we can't use cologne instead of aftershave?
