What does aftershave do? I’m 47 and not really sure. After shaving I put on Kiehls lotion and a drop of vitamin E.
I like the idea of a clean smelling aftershave. Just have no real idea what it does.

Wish I could help, but I’ve never used aftershave.

The razors of today are better than what they used to be. I remember razor burn and cuts and the aftershave would burn like hell. It might have been more for healing purposes…haha.
I used to use Mennen though back in the day.
I never use it now.

If i do shave, it’s in the shower.
So other than, shaving cream, not much.
The heat from the water and steam opens up your pores and softens your face so you don’t really need aftershave

I always shave in the shower, easier and better results it seems.

Don't need shaving cream, either. I haven't used shaving cream in 20+ years. The heat from the steam and water softens the hairs as well. I was hesitant at first, but it's true.

Aftershave is to “close” the pores and disinfect the small knicks you can’t see/feel. Not soften the face.
I use an alum block/stick. It’s a cheap, natural astringent that’s been used for about 5000 years

The use of wood tells you this is classy.

Haven’t shaved in years, just use the trimmer for beard and neck

I will second on the English Leather, I have been using it for over 60 years, although I have to order it online now due to lack of local availability.

I just use a cold/wet hand towel to close pores then use some lotion after the skin has air dried

cold water at first, then either something like stirling soap co executive man or taylor of old bond street eton college for that classic splash. for something milder I have a bottle of craftsman soap co witch hazel and aloe or brickell aftershave lotion.

I use clippers on my beard but when I used to shave, I used rubbing alcohol. If I didn't, I would get a rash.
