    Default facial wash

    newbie here, I have tried The Art of Shaving facial wash (gorgeous tingling feeling and peppermint smell) but leaves my face feeling dry. is this normal ? Anyone recommend other kinds of facial washes?

    Plain old soap and water works for me.

    The AOS facial wash did very un-good things to my face. I swear by Dr Hauschka cosmetics, but ben.mid recently treated me to some Elemis samples, and they were also great, especially the shave mask. If I were you, I would obtain samples, then buy whatever works.

    I have to admit that I'm quite happy with generic soap and water...
    I tried conditioner to make the shave smoother, and was plesantly surprised to that as well...

    I've done exceptionally well with just regular old soap and water.

    Noxema skin cream is the swiss army knife of my shave den. It's formulated with eucalyptus, menthol, camphor and other emollients. Works amazingly well as a preshave and keeps my goatee soft and non-itchy. As an aftershave, it cools a razor burn face within minutes and helps to eliminate all signs of burn/irritation.

    The best part is that dollar store knock-offs work just about as well and at about 1/2 the price.

    Cheers!
