Answer 2

Nikhil, Your friend is wrong. After shave is alcohol based, and will dry your skin. Your rough beard will come in as you grow older no matter what. Shaving is all about preparation, and the tools/materials you use. Prep.=tons of hot water,, a hot shower, or hot wash cloths. Most shave cream crap-in-a-can is soap based which dries and irritates your skin. You need a shave gel or cream that is moisturizer based and filled with lubricants. Try King of Shave Alpha Gel or Clinique Shaving Cream. You do not need or want those way over-priced 5 and 6 blade razors. A simple disposable two blade razor works great and saves $$$$. Do not shave a zit ever! It turns your razor into a bacteria spreader. The Alpha Gel is clear so you can easily miss those bumps. Always, Always shave with the grain or direction of beard growth. If you have a problem area, you at best should shave across the grain. NEVER against! Finish your shave by applying an oil-free moisturizer. This prevents your skin from cranking into overdrive to replace the skin oils removed by shaving. Shaving takes time, and should be enjoyed.

On the neck, shoulder or upper chest usually. A dash here and there on the body also helps as a deodorant "cover up" and I hear some men will cover their privates area with a little

Answer 4

Why, are girls applying perfum only after a shower, maybe?!
Aftershave is only a way to individualize a flagrance and so it can be used if unshaven also.

Answer 5

It's probably because they haven't washed either, because of the contents of after shave (usually alcohol ), it acts as an astringent and tends to dry and tighten the skin
