What are the best oils to include or look for in an aftershave balm?

I have heard of these so far:
-avocado
-jojoba
-grape seed
-hemp seed
-rosehip seed
-lanolin
-lavender
-lime
-Vitamin E
-Mineral
-Shae Butter
-Coco Butter

It depends on what you mean by oil. For instance, you've listed lavender and lime "oils," which are essential oils, not fatty oils. While they might have some botanical benefits, they are mainly used for scent. Thus, to say they are desirable is purely subjective, depending on how you want a balm to smell. The rest of the oils you've listed are used for moisturizing, except for, perhaps, Vitamin E. Also, I wouldn't include mineral oil on a list of best oils. Otherwise, your list is pretty comprehensive, which may explain why you haven't gotten any responses - there really isn't much more to add.

Yeah I was basically throwing out a lists of the oils I've heard and was wondering which of those on that list were optimal for moisturizing.
