Glycerin - that´s the point!

[quickie-cookie]

I´ve tried many after-shaves and I can say, the splashes without glycerin are nice, but the skin-care doesn´t exist really.

But if you have a splash with glycerin under the first ingredients, the care lasts, because the alcohol can´t dry out really.

It´s my opinion.

My favorite Splashes are Tüff Rasierwasser from Thuringia/Germany and Brut Apres Rasage from France (same ingredients like Axe After Shave, because from Unilever). In Tüff, there are herbal essences, too. You can feel the herbal power, in summary to the glycerin.

And, for example, both splashes have glycerin under the first ingredients.

I like Wilkinson After Shaves and the german Tobacco and many others on the market, but with these (no glycerin), care doesn´t happen.

Even Glycerined, oiled, alcoholic splashes leave my skin dry

Everybody has a different skin type and thus a different preference for moisturizers in their aftershaves. The same glycerin you like, somebody else might find too heavy. One of the difficult things in wetshaving is finding the right type of aftershave for you.

One option is to add a small amount of 444 balm to those aftershaves that lack glycerin.

I agree with you about Tüff. The stuff is even better than Speick. It comes in an unscented and a scented version. I have only seen it in the former East in Germany and in Manufactum.
