Men's Aftershave

Men's Aftershave: An All-Time Favourite

Men's aftershave has been used even during the time of the Romans. It started out by men putting antisceptic on their face after a shave, to prevent infection. Over time, the formula slowly changed and was adapted into a modern formula widely used around the world. The sole intention is to soothe and protect the jawline and to prevent irritation. While the formula still often contains antiseptic, it comes in other fragrances too.

Adding A Fresh Scent To Your Shave

Picking a scent of men's aftershave can be a difficult choice. Even perfume brands have stepped out and created their own versions of products. The scent of these can sometimes come off a little overpowering, so others opt for a softer smell. Some companies offer more of a menthol smell, for a fresh and clean feeling. Many barbers often lean towards this due to the close creation to traditional aftershave. Other scents you can expect to find are based around natural ingredients like lemons, orange and eucalyptus. Proraso offers a little more spice in their ingredients which many men love.

Things To Consider When Picking A Men's Aftershave

Aside from the scent, there are other things to consider when selecting the perfect aftershave. Firstly, who will be using it? Are you purchasing it as a gift for someone special? Will you be using it yourself, if so, how often do you shave? Or are you a barber or hairdresser looking to include this as part of your service? Based on that answer it will help you to narrow down the size you need. AMR offers aftershave in sizes as small as 100mls, all the way to 1L or a 2L starter pack! Think of the skin type it will be used on, is sensitive skin an issue? If the answer is yes, it's imperative that you purchase a product that has been dermatologically tested. That means looking out for ingredients that contain no alcohol and often includes natural extracts and avoid artificial colours. This would be the most important point to consider, especially if you are planning to use aftershave on clients.
