    For me it's just cold water and witch hazel ---Thayers or Dickinsons. Don't need no sissy balms or moisturizers ---- now I know what causes Penile Erectile Dysfunction.

    No Jaeger.... they are "neural impulse spike inhibitors" and "counter-dehydration agents".... NOT "balms" and "moisturizers". Nothing is "sissy" if given the correct clinical/technical jargon. Well..... not everything, but you get the point.

    I usually throw on the thayers after the cold water rinse, let that dry in for a few seconds, then splash on the clubman after that. If its really cold out, I will throw on a non scented balm on top of the clubman so my face doesn't dry out. it really just depends on your face, some people can't handle an alum block or high alcohol based A/S, so cold water and a good balm might be the best for them. when i started shaving years ago, I would put 70% isopropyl alcohol on my face after a shave just to toughen up my face and help clear up the acne I was getting from that wonderful thing called puberty. It burned like hell, but actually worked.

    thats what I like about you justin, never afraid to speak your mind. I bet you would stroke off a bobcat with a handful of barbed-wire just to see the reaction you would get from it.

    Jeff, when you're as full of crap as I am, it's easy to speak your mind . As far as the bobcat thing --well that's just cruel and unusual (well at least cruel --but maybe not unusual in these parts of the woods).

    Thanks guys! That really helped a lot. I just made a mad dash to my local Walgreens to pick-up several of their low-priced, alcohol based after shave products including Brut, Aqua Velva, Drunken Bay Rum - Lime, and Jovan Sex Appeal. Thanks again!

    Now, off to study the effects of gasoline on fire...

    FWIW,
    I use an alum block, Coral Skin Food, and T&H Classic Balm. Never use a balm after the alum block, it seems to denature the balm. The alum block and CFS work great together however. I only use the balm when the humidity is really low or if I've been way too agressive shaving.

    Just another data point,
    Ed

    Personaly I like using Proraso aftershave cream (right after a cold rinse while my face is still damp) followed by a splash of Aqua Velva musk after the cream soaks in.

    I find I get the Proraso cooling with a slight sting of the A/V and the fragrances seem to complement each other...or at least the wife thinks so.
