What is after-shave?

After-shave is a product used by men to refresh and soothe the skin after shaving. It typically comes in liquid or lotion form and is applied to the face and neck after shaving to help protect the skin from irritation, inflammation, and razor burn. Some after-shaves also contain ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, and tea tree oil that help to nourish the skin and provide a cooling sensation. As well as providing skin protection, after-shave can also give a pleasant scent to the skin, with many different fragrances available to choose from.
