So far my favorites are
Nivea Sensitive Balm

Nivea Energy feels really good on the skin.
They all work well for me.
Great thread by the way.

Nobody has mentioned one that I find myself reaching for a lot: Pre de Provence. Loaded with shea butter, it is super moisturizing and soothing. It is very lightly scented so it does not conflict with an AS splash, cologne or EdT.
It's priced in the middle of the pack and is extremely concentrated, so the 2.5 oz tube lasts a long time.

You know, Lea is worth a look. Spanish, I think. You can get a sample from GiftsAndCare.
Shiseido Moisturizing Recovery Cream. I'm using it on top of AS splash. It gives a MWF post shave feel into the next day.
Off the beaten path; 100% Unrefined Organic Shea Butter hands down over all others.
More Traditional; Maca Root Razor Relief, Tabac, Aramis Original, SPA Dead Sea Aftershave Gel.

This is good stuff.
RazorRock rocks. Either wax or milk.
+1. The packaging is almost identical to that of L'Occitane and while they both have Shea butter, I prefer the Pre over L'Occitane as far as scent and performance.

CF Lavender is outstanding, and Saint Charles Shave's AS Milks are a steal.
Even with pricey AS balms I like to stick with Proraso White and all Proraso Line.
And the splash, Floid Blue is #1 for me altough I'm using more and more the Fine AS

My favorites are the balms from Castle Forbes and DR Harris. I use them extensively during cold/dry season.
if money is no issue, why aren't you just buying?! Self discovery dear chap
La Toja Manantiales Balm. Wife loves the scent.
Art of Shaving sandalwood balm. It's my favorite, but it is also expensive. Not as expensive as DRH though, because the latter
is thinner so I use more

Nothing beats Myrsol Emulsion in my experience. It's the only weapon in my large arsenal of AS I use every day, but I use it as a pre-shave. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't use a pre-shave.
