What's new

What's your favorite 1-2 punch for shaving cream and aftershave?

So Far........12 weeks into my journey......


Proraso in Green Tube followed by
Aqua Velva.



This will be hard to beat in the sweltering summer months.
 
At the moment I'd have to say Taylors Lavendar followed by Coral Skin food but there is a close second in the race and that's Salter's mint followed by Nancy Boy AS gel. A great cooling combination on a warm day.
 
starting my 4th week at this my favorite so far is AOS Lemon with a few extra drops of walgreens glycerin whipped in and proraso Liquid aftershave balm. The Proraso green tube with the glycerin is pretty nice too.
:badger:
 
I honestly don't have a go-to pair. :blushing: I've got so many different prodcuts that I'm still messing with the combinations! :001_rolle

Nice! Can we get a little more info on the HB Gardens? Seems like a good one.

I have to say I'm impressed with them, but I'm a newbie. I really enjoy the Bay Rum, and now with the QED Sandalwood, it's great to have sandalwood aftershave. The first time I used the sandalwood, I didn't like it because I had powder all over my face. I had shaken it up before using it and there is sandalwood powder in the bottom of the bottle.

They contain alchohol and but they do have aloe in them. They come in a 4oz plastic splash bottle. They aren't overly strong scents, but they last through most of the day.

Their products are all natural. Check out the after shave page Now that I have the QED lime shave stick, I may have to get the HBG lime AS as well. I was just looking for a cheap Bay Rum and for $6 or $7 bucks, I think I have found a winner.

Thanks for the link, and the info Birch. They sound great.

I wonder how their shaving soaps are...available by special order only...
 
Currently it is:

Proraso Green Tube followed by Aqua Velva Ice Balm

This might change after I get my hands on some new shaving soaps and some proraso after shave balm. We'll just have to wait and see.
 
The past couple of days I have found the following to be very refreshing and irritation free:

Coates Tea Tree shaving creme
Thayer's Rose Witch Hazel w/o alcohol (has aloe & vit E)

Wonderful stuff for sensitive skin =)
