What's new

Alum block, aftershave, or both?

I only use alum block like a septic pen if I cut myself, which is rare. I use Lucky tiger face tonic all over my face every shave when thats dry then aftershave.
 
I finish with a cold water rinse which in South Florida is closer to room temperature. Next Dickenson’s WH and finish with a splash.

I am not unhappy to pay about $3.50 for a 16 oz. bottle of Dickenson’s that lasts a year to 15 months used daily. There is no reason for me to worry about the quality of a store brand to save less than a dollar a year.

I prefer what I consider to be clean splashes with little or no glycerin or other ingredients that feel sticky. Menthol is a plus. My current favorites are Fine and Floid Vigoroso. Captain’s Choice also has a good skin feel to me and may be part of my next AS purchase when my too large supply begins to dwindle.
