Item Description
This is my everyday, go to aftershave balm. The only online retailer that seems to carry it is classicshaving.com. What's in it? No true idea as I don't read Japanese. Here is the description from Classic Shaving:
This balm comes in a high-quality refillable plastic pump bottle. One pump dispenses about a dime size dollop which is just the right amount for my face. If you have used the Nancy Boy Cooling Aftershave Balm, this balm is a lot like that balm minus the nasty (IMO) alcohol sting and only having a light peppermint note instead of the NB trifecta. The consistency is juuust right - not too runny and definitely not too thick like a cream. This is a lightly moisturizing balm and not at all heavy. It absorbs into my skin in just a few minutes, and the smell does not linger at all so there is no cologne interference. I estimate the 250 g bottle will last me at least 9 months to a year with daily use. To boot, Classic Shaving sells a refill for this balm so you save cash and do not have to repurchase the pump. Good deal.
That about sums it up.
