Thread: Anyone using Burt's Bees Aftershave?

Sorry, I completely forgot about corn huskers, which is great if you can handle the smell. It isn't a strong smell, but some don't like it, I do. This is available in many grocery or department stores in my area.

I've used the BB's aftershave, and it's not bad IMO. I do prefer to use a splash of witch hazel, and then finish with a splash of Stephan's Lilac aftershave. I love the light fresh scent of the lilac, and a LOT of ppl that come into the barber school (students and customers both) enjoy it as well! Give it a try sometime Their 320 is also good, with that nice "old barbershop" smell

Never seen the aftershave,but if its anything like the lip balm,Im in.Where do I get some of dis?

Thanks for the replies. I've used it twice now and my skin seems to be doing nicely. I think the kicker may be that my wife absolutely loves the smell.

The Publix witchhazel has 14% alcohol and right on the bottle they claim it to be comparable to Dickenson's. If Thayer's is that much better, I guess I need to find some and try it out.

@Blackstangal: I found it at Publix in the Men's section of the cosmetics. It was right there next to the Nivea stuff and the regular shaving goo. Speaking of Nivea, I didn't try that one because I couldn't pronounce any of the ingredients.

Thayers is much more soothing since it doesn't contain alcohol. At least their toners don't. I think their super witch hazel has some. I had the same experience with Burt's Bees. They are everywhere. It's always a proprietary display, so my guess is they control the distribution all the way up to the display. Anyhoo, I tried the ASB and the wife tried a skin moisturizer. Same results as anything else.

+1 on the Nivea comment. Way cheaper and makes my face happy after a shave.

Found the Dickenson's witch hazel at the local Target. I agree, it seems to be better than the publix brand.

I think this aftershave is a keeper. My skin hasn't been dry at all and it really feels and smells nice after the witch hazel. Now if I can only find it somewhere cheaper...
