I've been reading up on various aftershaves and I'm curious to gather some opinions on what characteristics you believe make for a superior product. Beyond the initial scent, which can be quite subjective, what do you think are the essential qualities of a good aftershave? How does it interact with your skin type, and what ingredients do you look for or avoid? Let's discuss the after-effects, such as moisturizing properties, skin irritation, and the presence of alcohol. Moreover, if any of you use a toner in conjunction with your aftershave, I'd love to hear about how this combination works for you. Do you notice a significant difference when using a toner?

I find that aloe-based aftershaves work well for my sensitive skin. Have you tried any with aloe? How does your skin react to alcohol-based aftershaves?

I find that aloe-based aftershaves work well for soothing my sensitive skin. I also prefer alcohol-free options to avoid irritation. Using a toner after shaving helps balance my skin's pH and reduces oiliness. It's made a noticeable difference for me.
