Guide Review - Bump Patrol After Shave- Maximum Strength

Men's aftershave is not my area of expertise so when I received this product to test, I turned to four different men for their opinions. The men; Robert (a restaurant manager); Ishmael (a student); Jack (a college professor) and Tony (a C.E.O) assisted me with this review by trying the product and discussing it 25 days later.

Prior to using the product, I asked each of the men to grow their facial hair out for four days then to use the product. Each one is from a different ethnic background: Caucasian, African American, Middle Eastern and Latino. Three of the four regularly suffered from ingrown hair and razor burn. The fourth usually had moderate razor burn but no ingrown hair.

The most dramatic story was from Tony. He is African American and suffers from pseudofolliculitis barbae, more commonly known as razor bumps. He has been avoiding shaving for quite some time and has been living behind a beard. He wanted to shed the beard for the summer but was dreading it.

He tried the Bump Patrol maximum strength after-shave and was ecstatic. He said he did have a few razor bumps to begin with but the more he used it, the less bumps he had. He continued to use the aftershave and said that his face was smooth and soft and it was not a pain to shave. After fifteen days, he no longer had the razor bumps and was thrilled with the product.

I heard similar stories from each of the men and not one of them had anything bad to say about the way the product worked. The only negative comment was that it did not smell very good but that could be looked over because the product worked so well.
