wtf does aftershave do?

What the hell is it meant to do? Every time I look at a bottle, it never explains what it does other than you splash it on when your skin is raw and missing a layer, it hurts like a motherfuckl, and you smell like a stick of deoderant for the next hour. I'm guessing it closes pores?

It's BRACING.

That would be my guess, too. Also a disinfectant for any cuts you may have sustained (including many tiny ones you don't feel or see), and since it dries your skin and tightens your pores, it probably makes your face look smoother. I don't use the stuff, personally, because to me it makes me smell like an old man.

It kills the germs you get from rimming your gf

it feels great. The ladies love old spice aftershave. Seems to lessen post shave irritation. . .

Who shaves? Honestly? Fuzzy is the way to go.

I would seriously consider killing a person if it ment I would never have to shave my face again.

Can't argue with that.

My beard is like a cup of coffee. Bear with me... Just when I get my goatee trimmed the way I like it, tapering to stubble, by the end of the day it's all grown out on my neck and itchy and I have to start all over again. Just like when you have a perfect ratio of milk and sugar in your coffee, the waitress sneaks up and refills it, ruining the carefully tended level.

I hate shaving.

Oh, and never used aftershave... Sorry.

It burns yet makes your face smell like little angelfarts.

Angelfarts make excellent coffee creamers.

Ain't that the truth!

Seriously. And who ever heard of free coffee creamers?

I just use Listerine. Works good, and after it's done the job you can wipe it right off.

Just wax!
xo

Edited coz i'm such a tool, I quoted the wrong person.

it makes you feel a man, every day

You can't wax your face. You might've been joking spacey, but I don't want anyone to go out and try it. It'll invariably end in tragedy. Or in having heaps of unused, useless wax.

I've never used aftershave. It was put off by that scene in Home Alone 2. You know the one. Or was it the first movie?

I'd like to feel a man every day.

I swear, I'm the only person who enjoys shaving. It's rare that I'm able to get up early enough to use a proper razor, and instead have to fall back on my electric, but you just feel so squeeky clean.

So does masturbation.

When I was a wee nipper, I asked my Dad this question, and he told me that shaving opens the pores on your face, and aftershave makes them close up again.

It keeps the good folks at the Old Spice plant employed. And lets grandpa go another day without showering.

I usually feel itchy, unevenly shaved, and generally digusted with myself.

And my aftershave is a lotion with spf15 and some other goodies in it.

Makes guys smell good.

i think its to stop you smelling of BO,

but also it dsoe something to stop your pores being open or somthing
i dunno

yeah... but next time, put a little more thought into your analogy.
