The tangy tingling sensation it causes after being splashed on is one way
to describe an aftershave. Most aftershaves act as astringents; they help
firm skin tone and close skin pores when applied immediately after
shaving. Many aftershaves contain alcohol, which possesses antibacterial
abilities, helping to prevent infections of knicks or shaving cuts. It
also should contain glycerine and/or other ingredients known to be
beneficial to skin care. Glycerine will help counter the drying effects
on the skin, and the chafing and irritation that can develop with dry
skin. *Most drug stores contain all of the above tinctures and oils.
Herb and health food shops carry the essential oils.
