My routine is cold water splash followed by alum, pat dry face, alcohol based splash, wait 15 minutes then apply lotion based AS. The alcohol AS really seems to give me a really smooth feeling to my skin.

Gotta love those alcohol based
aftershaves...what an wonderful
ending to a straight (or DE) shave.

I do use alcohol based A/S myself, in winter, sometimes, I need some sort of balm or moisturiser, but that happens seldom. I used alcohol based since Imstarted shaving, tried non-alcohol based many times but I always went eventually back to alcohol A/S.
Currently I'm using TOBS Mr Taylor A/S, Pinaud Clubman Bay Rum and Floid. Floid is a recent addition and I just love it! :)
