I have been wet shaving for about a month, all the while I've only used Nivea Replenishing balm. Recently out of curiosity I purchased some Aqua Velva Cool Sport aftershave splash. The first ingredient is alcohol heh. So, I've read some posts on here about guys liking the "burn" as it gives them the feedback on their shave.
I felt the burn in a couple of places that I expected to with my first application of the Aqua Velva. But I really didn't care of how my face felt afterwards. In fact I needed to use the Nivea within a couple of minutes because it just makes my face feel so good.
What is it about the splashes that is so good after a shave? I've seen some advice that balms are okay but that aftershaves are preferred. I am not sure I'll use anything other than Nivea for awhile if all splashes feel like the Aqua Velva.
Thoughts?
