    Default After Shave??

    Hello my friends, I'm hoping some one can help me out.

    I've been using Old Spice lately as an after shave but two things make me think.

    (1) I know that it's more Alcohol based, is there something better to use?
    (2) The Scent:
    I'm a Bowhunter & as such I pay attention to my scent when I'm in the woods & with the smell of Old Spice I'd be lucky to see anything.
    Is there something that does not have a scent to it?

    Before I would normally just not use an after shave or not shave at all a couple of days before I go into the woods.

    Any Ideas?

    Raider2000,

    I found for myself (so far) that straight alcohol 70% does the best for me, less breaking out. I have sensitive skin though too. The smell goes away fairly quick also.....

    Well, I always thought you bow hunters smeared all those pheromones on you before you go out hunting.

    There are many unscented products on the market-Nivea makes some and the Thayers. Check out our vendors for products.

    +1 on the previous advice. IMHO Thayers would be the best unscented astringent and aftershave. I use it regularly.

    Actually most of us will avoid putting anything on our bodies or clothing except a scent eliminating soaps & spray because we do not want them to come right to us but to within a ethical distance from us.

    Thank you for the info, I will try it out.
