After Shave? WTF is that all about!?

Yeah Yeah Yeah · 13-04-2012 08:54PM #1

I'm a bloke and I can't get my head around why men use aftershave..

Men/Blokes/Lads: Do you use aftershave?

Men/Blokes/Lads: Why do you use it?

Women/Girls: Do you find it allauring enhancing etc?

(If so, what brands:rolleyes::D!!)

MagicMarker · 13-04-2012 08:55PM

I use cologne, then I make love to myself.

BBDBB · 13-04-2012 08:56PM

Yes, but not after shaving

Closes open pores.

Makes me feel like a man. I usually splash it on and then go out to the garage to stir some paint with a stick and beat my wife when I'm done for not making me a sandwich :pac:

I only use it when I'm home alone.

Why do you normally poop ur pants when going out of an evening?

It's nice to smell nice, that's all.

Also, for guys "on the pull," as it were, it's beneficial as many women like the scent of certain colognes.

Like Blue Stratos.

Just apply it liberally (adding a bottle to your bathwater works well) and enter any reputable nightclub.

Beware though: you may not make it out alive.

Certain people from certain parts of the world such as the Middle East and India tend to have very strong body odor. This may be due to diet, hygiene, pheromones or genetics. In post cases these people rely on aftershave/cologne/toilet water to mask the brutal whiff of utter mankiness. Get into a NYC taxi and you will either be greeted by the overwhelming scent of spring flowers or the brutal carnage of a curry fart mixed with armpit fungus depending on when the driver last applied his perfume.

Aftershave does smell nice...

Yeah Yeah Yeah · 13-04-2012 09:04PM

Sh1t!!

This is making a bit of sense, used to love the smell of the gf's perfume on me clothes the next day...

A little Hugo Boss behind the ears and on the wrists.

There are reasons for after shave OP. It may contain an antiseptic agent to prevent infection of cuts or menthol to numb damaged skin, and also attractive scents, which leads to a proliferation of different scents and product differentiation, and allows celebrities to lend their names to some nice scented products so we can smell like them or imagine rubbing our noses all over them.

He taught you to wax on and wax off?

The King of Moo · 13-04-2012 09:07PM

I used to be in the "sure why would men want to be smellin' nice?" camp, but now I've come to like a hint of a subtle fragrance about my person.

Calvin Klein's Euphoria for men is my usual choice at the moment.

And that's now the least macho thing I've ever written.

It looks like most people are confusing aftershave with EDT or cologne.

Aftershave is a Lotion, Gel, Balm, or liquid used mainly by men after they have finished shaving. It may contain an Antiseptic agent such as Alcohol to prevent infection from cuts as well as numb damaged skin, a Perfume to enhance scent, and a Mositurizer to soften the Skin. An alcohol-based, fragrance-free Astringent can be used as an aftershave. It is said that the alcohol in the aftershave closes pores in the skin and prevents irritation ("Razor Burn").
