After shaving if you use post products then what ?

[Ckmaui]

whatever you do for post product what do you do when done with your face ?

do you then wash your hands and done ?
do you rub it on your arms/body ?
Your head/hair ?

I always think why waste so I then rub whatever is on my hands all over my head but my hair is short like 1/8 or 3mm but I do love that gives the scalp a nice feel
which makes me wonder about some of the hair tonics but no need to get another product



so curious what others do

After schmearing whatevs on my face and neck, I might attack the back of my neck or even my knees.

Then I wash my hands. All of them.

Its the knees that made me crack a smile hahahah

I know I save my shaving soap that is left on the brush or in the bowl to wash my hands also when I am all done

My legs can get dry and my last step is usually a balm (Neutrogena Hydro Boost, CeraVe, pure dimethicone, etc).

Congratulate yourself on a job well done. Then start planning for tomorrow's shave. Invite your favorite lady to touch your face and to admire your work.

Yeah I am in AZ and never had dry skin till here !!
I use that Cerave (spelling) got it at costco kinda tub looking with a pump so thicker than cream in a tube but works wonders Post shower !

For some reason my mind was seeing someone splash their face then their knees and going AHHHHH
can see that with balm in hand !

I do tend to do the splash after my head I then come back to the Neutrogena Hydro Gel and then often do the forehead area and over the bridge of the nose etc...
that Neutrogena has been magic for me !

I apply hyaluronic acid to my face after I rinse the shaving soap. I'll rinse my hands afterward. Once mostly dry & apply my aftershave splash. My most common aftershave is in a bottle with a mister so nothing is on my hands. But when I apply a splash with my hands, I pat my chest a couple of times after I'm done applying it to my face.

I try not to over-do it using any aftershave products. If I have an aftershave splash I will put a bit in my hand spread it on my face, give my head a quick wipe and wash my hands. An aftershave balm like I am using now, is similar to the splash. I small amount on my hand, spread it around my face and a quick head wipe and it's time to wash my hands. I'm not a cheap... I mean frugal person, but since I don't always have anything for aftershave I try to use a good amount without wasting.

Apply aftershave (always alcohol based) then rinse and towel-dry hands. Don't want my sangwich to taste like Old Spice.

back in my darkroom days would spend hours and my hands would get a mess with developer or fixer or whatever and I had that issue all the time !!!!! hahahaha brought back memories

I do not apply AS to my upper lip area cause I hate it as I do this lip roll thing a lot and yuck hahahahaha

 

[NorthernSoul]

Apply anything leftover to back of neck and to chest. Wash hands as I'm tidying up the area.

 

[ajkel64]

I very rarely have anything left over. I just wash my hands dry them and done. If I use a liquid lotion or a splash I may then rub my hands over my shoulders and chest area for the scent. I mainly use balms and spray EDT’s.

I usually do a cold water rinse followed by witch hazel on the parts I shaved and then a min or so later run aftershave balm on my face and any little excess on my fore head and the rest of my face.

Whats weird is prior to DE, I just rinsed my face with water and go but now I take the time to enjoy the experience/results.

I use a 4oz Spray Bottle which previously came filled with Thayer's Rose Toner.
A few sprays to my face while I perform the necessary tool clean, rinse, and putaway.

At completion of that step (min or two later) is where the AS splash comes into play followed by a simple rinse/dry of the hands.

My final step is moisturiser. And that goes on my face and neck (the area I shaved) with any left over going on the back of my neck and my nearly bald head!

 

[OkieStubble]

After the shave, rinse and pat dry, I always put my t-shirt on before I go to my chosen AS splash. Once my splash has been applied to my face and neck, I dry my hands by patting the palms on the chest area of my t-shirt.

This allows a bit more scent longevity thru out the day.

After done shaving I rinse my face with warm water then cold water to remove any soap.
Then I towel dry and then spray on a little Dickenson's witch hazel(14% alcohol) and work the face to remove any soap residual and possibly use the razor if missed a small area with just the residual witch hazel and then use a dry wash cloth to remove the wet witch hazel, apply some aftershave and then a tiny dollop of balm in my hand and rub & smear on my face and good to go( all in 2 minutes of time Maximum.) Might sound over done but it really is no big deal and I enjoy the results.

After applying AS on face I go all around my neck and then rub my hands till it dries, gives a sense of freshness all around specially when using a mentholated aftershave!

I like this idea. Helps the scent linger longer. (Alliteration of the day!)

I'm gonna start doing this also.
