    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...
