I am a big fan of aftershave balms. I currently have or have used Neutrogena Triple Protect, L'Ocstaine Cade, DR Harris Arlington Aftershave Milk, Proraso, Pre de Provence, and GFT Skinfood. I need to replace some balms and need to replace some. I care less about scent and more about how it works on face and neck. I need to replace my DR Harris but want to try something new. Any recommendations?

I haven't used many balms, but I like Stirling's Executive Man balm. It's a bit thicker than Nivea Sensitive, which I also like. I prefer the scent of the Stirling balm, but the texture of the Nivea balm, which has almost no scent.
Proraso for sensitive skin. My skin isn’t sensitive, but this rubs in rapidly and doesn’t leave your face or hands greasy. I love it.

I don't usually use balms. I don't like most of them. The best one I've tried is Myrsol Emulsion. It doesn't leave my face overly greasy and it has wonderful healing properties.
Nivea sensitive skin is my ATF balm. Duke Cannon Ice Cold is good- alcohol free, a menthol kick, followed by a nice dry down of bergamot & sandalwood.
Nivea for Sensitive Skin and Aqua Valve Sensitive 5 in1.

Another vote for Nivea Sensitive Post-Shave Balm.
I recently received Captain's Choice shave balm. Great stuff. It really makes my face feel better.

Triumph & Disaster. Got a sampler and will be purchasing. Expensive, but I use so much less than my current ASB (Nivea for Sensitive) that I figure it will be a wash over the long term, and it works better to boot!

Castle Forbes 1445 - Sample - great scent
Christian Dior Suavage - great scent, wonderful gift from my wonderful wife.

Nivea Balms, Natio Balms, Proraso Balms. Balms are great, I really don’t use them enough though.
CeraVe moisturizer. HLA rich, it immediately relieves that after-shave tightness one sometimes gets, and really does improve skin texture and appearance. Scentless, which I appreciate, as it does not interfere or conflict with the day's frag.
I use the cream, which is quite thick, so I apply a few dabs to wet skin and gently rub; that way, it penetrates and goes to work right away without leaving a greasy film.

Clinique for Men is my favorite. Not scented and it incorporates almost instantly and requires little product.
I've used Castle Forbes and it's very good. It seems expensive, but you only need a couple of drops and a bottle lasts forever. That's actually my problem with CF, it's difficult to get two drops from the bottle (open neck). When I use 3-4 drops it remains on my face, and then on my cell phone.
