Since I started DE shaving this year my face has been getting more attention than ever. Before this, in my 35+ years of cartrige shaving, I'd do quick, 1 pass shaves on weekdays, never shave on a weekend or vacation or days off. I also never used any pre or post shave products.
Now I shave daily. I use all kinds of soaps, I'm smacking alcohol based aftershaves all over my kisser, I've got witch hazel, balms, and all kinds of stuff being rubbed around these days. I've read about men moisturizing daily before bed and some after immediately after shaving. Many say that it makes their shaves better as well.
So now I'm asking myself "Do I need to moisturize?"
I tried looking online for a product and was overwhealmed with choices. Anti-aging ingredients? SPF? Liquid? Cream? And the reviews: this one's too oily, this one blocked pores, this one caused acne. Then there's the prices. $50? $35, $9. Is this a "you get what you pay for" situation?
Any advice is appreciated.
