Item Description
I was a bit confused when I first learned that the best thing for a fresh shaved face is an Alcohol-FREE after shave. I didn't know they even existed so I went out to Wal-greens to do some field work. The Balms I saw were Brut, Nevia, and this. All were in the same price range so I went on smell. L'oreal's Men's Expert line products all have the same scent and let me tell you they picked a great one. I brought it home and my girlfriend fell in love with my new wetshaving hobby all over again. I went out today and bought the pre-shave face wash and the hydrator. Strangly 80% of the line are moisturizers, everything has the dual intention of moisturizing with some side job(wrinkles, crowsfeet, very womanly needs) so I only hit the basics. I'll review the others later but now the After shave.
It was $6 and some change for a 3.3 oz (100 ml) squeeze tube that's shape resembles a deoderant stick. I only use a pea size ammount and it does feel greasy at first but after about 10 seconds it is completely dry, my face has not felt dry (but not oily either) since I bought it, and I only use it once in the morning. It also serves the dual benifit of moisturizing my hands. I rub it on both hands before rubbing it on my face and that little bit moisturized my hands as well so that several horus later my girlfriend asked if I used hand lotion.
This stuff is realy great-- cheap, smells great, moisturizes like a dream, and cools and drys the face as well as (if not better than) Alcohol based after shaves which I will never go back to.
