Title: what aftershave do you use? and aftershave theory.
Post by: Don Flamenco on October 15, 2008, 12:22:06 AM

We've probably had this topic recently, but here we go again. 

I use either polo black or just plain old Aveno daily moisturizing lotion.  I usually go with the lotion though. 

I find that products labeled "aftershave" don't usually do their job. Especially cologne based stuff like the polo I use...which makes my face feel almost "powdery" and no one can smell it after about 20 minutes (even when I put on a lot.)  but the lotion kicks ass and prevents razor burn and in-grown hairs completely.   so is that all aftershave is supposed to do, moisturize?

using a razor irritates my skin too much, so i just use a beard trimmer on the lowest setting.  it's much faster.

Thinking that would work was a tad myopic.

Never use it, almost all aftershave smells WAY too strong for grown ups

Water.

Only hobos and arabs use aftershave.  Hides the stink of hotdogs.

Aftershave is a great way to let everyone know you've passed one of two key milestones:

1) your balls just dropped; or
2) you just bought your first man-bracelet.

I shave with Gillet for sensitive skin and then just rinse with warm water.  I keeps it real.  :pimp

I shower after I shave, so I don't use aftershave.

I had a mental image of a guy with his shirt open, slicked black hair, and gold around his neck and wrist, reeking of aftershave.  I don't think aftershave is juvenile at all, I was just thinking of some images the smell brings to mind.

Put it this way, if you were wearing aftershave I wouldn't consider it a reason to kick you out of bed. :-*

Either stuff from Davidoff or Polo Sport.  It depends on which cologne I use.
