Cooling AS

[Beerman]

Hello,

I'm a big fan of AS that provides a cooling effect, without the stinging that comes along with an alcohol based product. My favorite so far is Baxter's of California. Does anyone have a recommendation for a balm that provides more cooling sensation, without the sting??

I do not care what the scent is, just how it feels on my face.

Proraso Pre-Post creams (jar)

Less cooling, but still cooling:
- Proraso AS liquid cream

Also check out Proraso splash. Slight cooling effect and nice fresh babershop scent.

I would suggest a trial size of The Gentlemens Quarter Aftershave, too thin to be a balm but not a flame thrower A/S either. OR, Nancy Boy Signature Scent
A/S gel which is closer to a a balm than an aftershave, nice cooling and pleasant amount of EO as well.

The Gillette Intense Cooling lotion contain menthol, it's quite coolling, it's a balm.

I will second this. Around the same cooling as AV. I've been using Osage Rub, a lot lately, but that has quite the alcohol kick. I don't mind, really, and I found that after spraying on some Witch Hazel, and letting it dry, the alcohol kick isn't as bad.

Too bad it has alcohol (I have dry skin)

I tried a sample, and the coolong is great.

I even like the scent, better than other Gillette products


But it really dried my skin out

Nivea has a cooling ASB that is widely available and cheap. I recently discovered it and enjoy it alot.
