    Is there any kind of mentholated after shave creme, balm, or milk that is cool but light? Thanks!

    Try Proraso or Musgo Real. Proraso is a very easy lathering soap and the skin is very cool and refreshed after your shave. And it isn't expensive either! Same with the Proraso A/S. La Toja A/S and Balm has menthol and a nice refreshing scent. If I were you, try the La Toja, you won't be disappointed!

    Thanks my friend...I'll try the La Toja. I've already been using Proraso A/S Balm and Musgo Real and ypu're right they are good!
     
  7. if you are using the balm, you really should also try the Proraso splash...superb!

    Not sure if you are using the Proraso liquid cream but the Proraso pre/post shave cream has a fair menthol kick to it when used post shave.

    In that case the pre/post cream in in a totally different menthol league:)

    Man I haven't used Aqua Velva or Skin Bracer since the '70's...Could you give me a quick run-down of how their Mentholness and AS qualities stack up...Thanks

    Thanks applevalleyjoe...this sounds like it might be a good one. I have two questions for you. 1. What does it smell like to you and how does it pour...do you squeeze it out or does it have a small hole at the top so you can shake a small amount out at a time/instead of a big round hole so when you pour so ends up in your hand and some ends up on the floor. Also, is it a featherlite cream or a liquid like water? I din't want a HEAVY cream. The reason I asked about the smell is that I'm looking for a nice clean scent...not a heavy perfume scent like in a cologne. 2. It is not like Osage Rub is it because that is too COLD and thus not pleasureable? Thank you in advance for your answers to these questions my friend!

    If I may suggest, get some TSD M Bomb, then add it to what ever aftershave, liquid or balm, you like. It does not affect the scent.
    I just put two drops in my palm, add a squirt of balm, rub my hands together and slap it on. I do the same with liquid aftershave such as witch haze. And if two drops is too cold, use only one!

    I also add 4-5 drops in my palm with my shampoo, and 3-4 drops in my lather bowl when I whip up my lather.
    There ya go! Before - during - and after the shave! :happy108:

    Can we assume you don't add a drop or two to your morning coffee as well? ;)

    I second the recommendation for m-bomb. Another option is 444 gel--I put a small pea size gob in my hand, add any aftershave (splash or balm), rub hands together and apply to face.
