Aftershave Balm

I tend to take notice of what you like as you’ve got taste for a Sassenach!

What’s the texture like and why is it so good? Still in glass bottles? Very classy packaging.

Thank you for your kind words :) the texture is fairly thin but not runny, it sometimes takes a bit of work to absorb. It soothes the skin fantastically, and has a light old fashioned scent which quickly fades, and for me the fact it's a matte finish is a major bonus, can't be doing with with a big shiny face after a shave. Oh, and an art deco bottle, what's not to like :)
It's the only balm I've used for quite a few years now.
 
So obviously this will be massively subjective, but suppose I was to try Barts Balms, is there a particular one that everyone recommends? I get that the only difference is the scent but which is the most popular? I'd hate to end up with a bottle of Ben Dover.

I probably have used both the Boots and Superdrug branded balms. But as Nivea is £2.60 at Savers I usually pick up the replenishing and sensitive versions from there. I ordered more of the range from Boots as it was half price and needed to spend £20.00 for free shipping. Both my Aldi and Lidl are out of town. They haven't been in stock when I have shopped and too much hassle to go out of my way, especially with Savers prices. I regularly order from European beauty sites, so usually add a balm then.

Notino, Parfum Dreams,
Dambiro.de, Luxplus, Origines Parfum, Fragrancenet, Cocooncenter, Perfume Click, Allbeauty, I am sure there is a Spanish site called Beauty something.

Many of the above have .co.uk websites but then get delivered from Germany or Spain..
 
@Sabre you heard of or tried out #6 aftershave balm?

Saw it in poundland for £1.50,
Also was face scrubs etc of the same company tbh not heard of them before myself but looked alright

Nah sorry forgot to take one, surprisingly can't find a pic of it on google

Anyways it seems that #6 is actually poundlands skincare products,
I didn't know that till I just looked online

Obviously this vid isn't the actual product but I thought I'd post it so you can see the logo design, the aftershave balm is a blue tube
