as for post-shave, I dab the bleeding areas with my styptic, then apply Gillette Aftershave gel for sensitive skin. I like it a lot, but I'm open to other things too.

I get more irritation when I shave after a shower, so I'm going to try a cold shave tomorrow before I jump in the shower to see how it goes.
I do a warm shave every now and then but a cold or cool shave is what I do most often. Feels good. Then I do cold water rinse, splash on a bit of the Thayers + Aloe Witch Hazel (I like the cucumber scent) which I purchase at my local GNC or Hippie store.
Then I massage in an asb of some sort. Usually Nivea (i bought a lot when it was on sale) or I will mix some of an after shave splash with some corn huskers lotion in my palms and rub that in.
