Fido said:And another point. Surely after a shave you only need a moisturising balm. You don't need an after shave lotion on your face and neck particularly if it contains alcahol. Isn't after shave/cologne really a male scent which you should slap a drop or two around the top of your chest if you fancy it.
At least this is what someone told me recently.
Fido said:Her advice was to apply a moisturising balm directly after shaving. She said an after shave lotion should NEVER be applied before moisturiser.
Magicpixie said:I happen to like the sensation of aftershave; they don't all sting or dry the skin. Proraso, Speick and Aqua Velva splash are quite soothing splashes. At the end of the day just do what feels best for you; it doesn't really matter that much, regardless of what anyone else might try and tell you - especially a female consultant in Boots. :roll:

Her advice was to use an effective balm and use an after shave cologne/eau de toilet in spray form and to apply that away from the shaved area - on the upper chest. It seemed to make sense to me.
