Can you use an alcohol based aftershave (oldspice) when wetshaving, and if so what order and do you still need a balm?

Alcohol based things tend to dry your skin out, however as mentioned above you could balm wait 5 mins then splash this on

I use a splash with alcohol. If I get a little iritation I will apply some balm after the splash! Pain is good!

I put on a balm (Trumpers Skin Food) or witch hazel, let it dry and then a light splash of aftershave.

I do the same. I feel like putting on the moisturizer while my pores are still "open" is better for my skin's health. Then I put on the aftershave, disinfecting and closing the pores. Whether this really works or not, I don't know. But I like to think so.
