I all actuality Paul, as much as I've looked at al's products it never dawned on me to loom for ASB from him as well, I may be putting in an order soon... Looks like it may be a bigger order than i thought, thanks for the info.

I'm talking BALM, to sooth, with maybe a SPLASH after in the same scent. I have oily skin, so don't need too much moisturising, but I'm finding with the exfoliating properties of the razor on my quite sensetive skin I do feel I need something. Then again, witch hazel maybe all I need, with a splash after?
I love witch hazel. Try running to your local drugstore and getting just a cheap bottle of unscented witch hazel, itll probably be around 10% alcohol and give it a shot. If you like it you can always just use that with whatever splash you choose or you can get scented witch hazel. just load up a cotton ball apply all over face and let it air dry. The stuff has worked wonders for me.
This post brings back some memories; I've always had very oily skin (my mother calls it 'European' (German father)). Even now if I rub my hand across my brow it comes away VERY shiny. I guess the bonus part is I save on moisturisers. Down side is it looks silly. I remember when I was 16, working as a shop assistant, I'd soak several cotton balls in Witch Hazel, put them in a plastic zip bag in my pocket, and wipe my face with them several times a day (we had a very filthy washroom that didn't lend itself to hygiene). I was weird and obsessive even back then. Now I'm considering buying Witch Hazel again 33 years later!
Nivea makes a respectable balm, with a very light scent that won't interfere w/ your AS of choice.
The Castle Forbes 1445 ASB is wonderful... and quite expensive. Another good one is St. John's Bay Rum ASB... and it's eminently affordable.
Bottom line: I own both of them, like both of them, and use both of them.
