    Default After-shave balm that won't break the bank

    Hi all,

    I'm pretty new here and I thought I might draw on the massive well of knowledge that is this forum!

    For an after-shave balm I've had the pleasure of using L'Occitane CADE. This was a gift from my girlfriend and it's freaking amazing. The only problem is the price. It's around AUD$40-$50 for 75ml, and id like to find something cheaper that I could use on a daily basis.

    SO.. mayhaps some of you have used CADE and could offer a comparable alternative? Something as enjoyable and nourishing but without the price tag.

    Thanks in advance

    ...please excuse me if this is in the wrong forum section. I just saw that there is a aftershave section in "shaving equipment".

    sahay,

    Quite a few people use the Nivea aftershave balms (they do a 'standard' and sensitive versions) as they work well and are very well priced

    I tend to use E45 Lotion if my face needs a balm.

    Have fun !

    Best regards

    Russ

    Any moisturizing cream you girlfriend has will work fine (and, believe me, she has them). That's free!

    Hello, Sahay: I go along with my friend Russ: Nivea is good for an inexpensive aftershave balm.

    It seems we have a consensus. I'll give it a go. Thanks!
