While women dont typical put 'aftershave' on, they might reach for their regular body lotion. And while thats great, a lotion thats specifically designed to soothe, fight inflammation and heal skin would be all the better.
Whether you're a man or a woman, dont settle for alcohol based products which will dry out skin. Organic milk and honey natural aftershave lotion by Rituals Skin Care is alcohol-free and worked very well to moisturize my skin after shaving. The consistency is not a body butter or cream, but a light lotion that easily absorbs into the skin.
Cleopatra had the right combination daily taking milk and honey baths (as legend has it) to keep a beautiful complexion, as both are very hydrating and conditioning to the skin. Honey additionally has antiseptic properties to help with swelling and scarring. Some lotions are way too candy-like and artificial for me, but the scent is lightly sweet, not overly fragrant or powerful.
Tamanu oil in the lotion has anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties which can prevent breakouts and inflammation after shaving. Sweet almond oil, jojoba oil and shea butter are other emollients in the formula for additional moisture. Not just for shaving, you can lotion up in other areas needing attention. We all love multi-tasking products, especially the guys.
