Hello All,
I'm a newbie and I posted this question with a long list of other questions in the newbie section. I thought this might be a better section for this though.
I recently bought the "Thayer's Aftershave Witchhazel" from westcoastshaving for $6. However it is only a 4oz (...i didn't read carefully when buying) while the other toners and astringents are 12oz for $8. So I guess I have a few questions.
1) Why is the "Thayer's Aftershave Witchhazel" more expensive than the other thayer's products? Is it better than the others?
2) How is the above product different from say, the Original Astringent, besides a higher alcohol content?
3) What is the difference between an astringent and a toner, and can they both be used effectively as aftershave?
4) How do you guys apply the stuff? It doesn't have one of those rings that limits flow, so I'd probably spill it all over. I read one person mention using an "atomizer" or spray bottle. That sounds like a good idea, but I imagine I would accidently spray in my eyes...
Thanks!
