Winter Post-Shave Routine

[wakefieldma]

Hi guys-With the cold weather imminent, do you adapt your post-shave routine so as to keep your face moisturized? Do you typically just use aftershave balms, or you combine alcohol-based splahes with a facial moisturizer? I have a number of great alcohol-based A/S splashes that I would ideally like to keep using during the winter, but I don't want my skin to dry out-

Thanks!

I typically use a balm in the winter months. Sometimes I use an alcohol based splash though and follow it up with a bit of a light balm so I can get the best of both worlds.

Witch hazel followed by balm all the way through April for me.

I use Art of Shaving unscented after shave balm. It does a very good job of keeping me moisturized!

I switch from an alcohol-based splash to a milk or a balm. Try Saint Charles Shave's milks; they are outstanding.

My skin tends toward oiliness, so I used alcohol-based splashes year 'round. I've taken to an evening scrub with Zirh or Mugo Glyce soap....and follow that with a balm, skin food, or Hydrolast peppermint conditioner.
