The Body Shop Maca Root & Aloe Post-Shave Water-Gel for Men – Calms & Soothes – Vegan – 5.4 oz

The Body Shop’s Maca Root and Aloe ”Post-Shave Water-gel” is currently my favorite aftershave. It smells great. Rather than “spiced” or “woodsy” like a lot of products targeted at men, I’d describe the scent as “fresh”. Without coming off chemical-y, sweet, or fruity, and gentle enough to not be overpowering. As a gel it sits on your fingers and is easy to apply evenly. It goes on smoothly and has a mild cooling effect without the sting of menthol, etc. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin soft and feeling hydrated and refreshed. It doesn’t leave any appreciable residue. It likewise doesn’t change the appearance of your skin much, if anything perhaps a bit more matte. I’ve used it both with disposable cartridge razors as well as safety razors. It works well enough to follow a fairly aggressive shave.

Love the product, I’m definitely going to be a long time customer as long as the price stays low.

I’m glad I bought the after-shave from The Body Shop. Works great.

The aftershave is nice yet stinging in the beginning. The smell is great with the smoothness afterwards.

Great post shave gel that helps prevent and/or improve skin irritation related to shaving.

I've been using this gel since the early 2000's. It was the brand British Airways gave out in the amenity kit in business class and I've bought ever since. It's very refreshing, cooling and soothing without a ton of fragrance like so many gel products today. The shave cream is excellent too - not to heavy or greasy. Some are like coating your face in Crisco or butter and hard to wash off.

Best aftershave my boyfriend has ever used. So gentle on sensitive skin and smells so good.

My husband is very picky about what after shave he is willing to use on his skin. It must smell nice to him and function as a good quality after shave. This does both. The aloe also softens his skin post shave. We have already re purchased for him as he like this one so much.

The gel is soothing and doesn’t dry the skin, as far as scent is concerned minimal to none.( I didn’t buy it for its scent).

Cette Eau en lotion après-rasage à la racine de maca et aloe vera de The Body Shop est une véritable pépite ! Elle apaise parfaitement la peau après le rasage, hydrate sans laisser de film gras et laisse une agréable sensation de fraîcheur. La composition naturelle avec la racine de maca et l’aloe vera est un vrai plus. Cependant, le gros point faible reste le flacon… Il est vraiment difficile de faire sortir le produit : il faut secouer plusieurs fois, ce qui complique le dosage. C’est frustrant pour un produit aussi efficace. Message au fabricant : votre lotion est exceptionnelle, mais un flacon plus pratique ferait toute la différence. Avec un meilleur packaging, ce serait sans doute la meilleure lotion après-rasage sur le marché !

Really good product that feels refreshing, soothing and leaves no residue

Já conheço o produto, excelente!

Started using it 20 years ago and very rarely ever saw redness or pimples after applying it. It bummed me out when the brick and morter stores closed and I couldn't get it but now that it's available on Amazon I will be buying in regularly.
