Well, this is a similar thread to "top 3" or "top 5" aftershaves but not quite... What I would like to see is, for those who tried quite a few Aftershaves, to recommend a few products! What was good and why?
Some may already know that I really like aftershaves. I maintain a minimum stock because I don't have much room, but I still have a long list of stuff that I would like to try. So far, I reckon I probably tried around 50 AS easily. I'm no expert, far from it.
I'll start, I don't think there's a limit, minimum or maximum that one should impose itself.
What would I recommend for, let say, a new wetshaver or maybe you're looking for something new?
I have a preference for aftershaves that are lotion or contain alcohol. Those seem to work better for my skin type. I used to have an aftershave balm that I thought was ordinary (Nivea Sensitive). Nivea is not bad, it's cheap, it's available pretty much anywhere, it works for most people. It always left me with a greasy skin. However, some might enjoy it.
Is my list the only list? Of course not! Those are the products that I really enjoy! I would keep those that are hard to find for special occasions and others, as daily products. The issue, I keep discovering new stuff! If I look at what I paid versus what I got, I think those are great values!
Keep in mind, YMMV! And of course, if you liked it or disliked it, review the product if you like. Make sure you used it a few times to base your opinion on regular usage and not just a single usage.
