    Default Musgo Real Aftershave lotion

    I just got this about two weeks ago. I love the scent of it, but I don't like the sticky feeling on my face. Anyone else have this problem? I had to wash it off after a few minutes. I couldn't take the feeling any longer. Thanks.

    Musgo Real is one of my all time favourite aftershaves. Yes, it gets a bit tacky and it takes some getting used to but the tackiness goes away after a few minutes and leaves your skin feeling like a million bucks. I've yet to find another splash that has conditioning properties like that. That's JMO, there are many guys who have complained about the stickiness and have probably moved on.

    Thanks. I'll give it another try on my next shave and give it more time to settle in. I haven't been using it, but I can't help opening the bottle a taking a smell. Lol.

    That is similar to my Jack Black Post Shave cooling gel. It does a great job at conditioning. However, when I first started using it I got that tacky or sticky feeling all throughout the day. I later found from my brother that I was using too much of it; it didn't seem too much to me. I got it back under control after using less. Maybe the same is happening to you with your Musgo.

    Idk if I could use much less. With it being a splash on lotion it's kinda hard to controll how much comes out. I'm definitely going to give it a try.

    I love Musgo Real AS. However, I have to admit that it smells a little "old man-ish"....even though I like it. So I usually use when I'm home. LOL. It does leave a little tackiness on your skin. But I don't find it overwhelmingly negative. Overall, as Ryan stated, it leave me feeling great. I really like all of the Musgo products except for most of the new scents in their shaving cream line up. I prefer the classic one. I found the Oak Moss down right offensive and mailed it out to another member here. Come to think of it, I haven't heard from him since. I hope it didn't kill him. LOL.

    Gentlemen,
    I have used the Musgo Real aftershave for years. It has a traditional fragrance that is warm and uplifting. Yes, it does feel sticky at first, until it dries, and then the scent lingers throughout the day. I have used it for years and probably will do so into the next century. Good stuff.

    I gave it some more time to dry and now I love this A/S! I'm used a tad bit less than usual and gave it some time to dry. Face felt great after! Thanks to everyone.
