For years I tried finding an after-shave lotion that actually did something for the ferocious razor burn and irritation that plagued me after a shave. I've used other Nivea products for a while, and when I heard about their Men's line of shaving products, I hoped for the best.

Without a doubt this is the best after-shave lotion I have ever tried. I've tried name brands and generics, but nothing comes close to soothing my skin without smelling like a chemical vat. There is a faint scent with this product, but it's a mild, clean smell that doesn't threaten to offend.

I think the bottle design is great, though the chump who gave it a bad review because he dropped it should probably invest in some hand towels for his bathroom before he hurts himself again. I mean, who applies a product with wet hands to dilute its effectiveness?

Great stuff, Nivea. My skin thanks you.

I've had my first bottle of this after shave for a year and I have just finally begun to run out. While I don't use it everday, I use it regularly and when needed.

I use an electric shaver which often leaves my face dry and slightly irritated. This Nivea after shave is wonderful. It only takes a small amount to cover my whole face and neck. It leaves me refreshed and smooth feeling. Sometimes I'll leave the house and forget to put it on, and I'll go all the way back just to put it on. It gets your day off to a great start. No funky smells or textures here. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

I've been searching for a good after-shave skin product that would moisturize my face after using an electric razor because my skin gets very dry and itchy, especially in the winter months. I've tried different brands of after-shave and skin lotions, but this seems to be the best. My face has never looked healtier! I only wish the price were a little lower ($5.99 in store) and had a "manly" scent (this has really no scent, which is not bad, but...). I highly recommend it.

finally tried this, and I definitely recommend it. It doesnt have a strong smell, very pleasant and neutral. It feels so good on your skin after you shave, very soothing and moisturizing. Try some, you'll love it.

The scent is really mild, and fresh....not spicy..musky...or cheap smelling ...smells expensive......HEY ! COOL.

It really leaves you smooth a few minutes after shaving...and the very mild scent will not irritate your skin......great.......forget Gilettes balms, they dry ya out.

I've been using this product for over a year now and still enjoy the great feeling this balm gives my face after shaving. It feels so good when it's applied, no burning or bad smells. After five minutes I apply Suave UV Protective face lotion($2.50) and I'm ready to go. My face never dries out or flakes, yet it never feels greasy. Try both products and you'll thank me.

i just tried this out on my face as i've had a horrible case of razor burn all day. with this i got a mild burning feeling at first, but i see this as a good thing because it means something's got to be working! then it just felt soothing. works for me! i wouldn't mind using it after every shave. i like how the "balm" feels - it's like a light lotion that disappears into your skin. i think i like it better than "gel." i'm using this to replace the gillette "complete control" green after shave gel.. that didn't do much for me.

the only thing i'm worried about is this bottle.. i can picture it already. once i start to run out, it will take too long to get into my hands. i'd prefer a plastic squeeze design for convenience.

If you have rashes or blemishes and burning on your face after a shave, this is your stuff. I've been using it for... over 2 years now. Like another reviewer stated, if you forget it, you'll know it. It removes the rash in like 5 minutes. It makes your face feel great immediately and lasts for a long time. The best thing I've noticed is that it won't clog your pores.

OK so the bottle is glass and heavy, I happen to like it. Just be sure your hands are not dripping wet and don't use it while standing over the sink - (carpet will absorb it if you can predict when it will fall). If you still don't like glass in the bathroom, transfer it to another container because this is the best it gets.

I have dry skin and was looking for a reasonably inexpensive moisturizer/after shave lotion. I hate products that leave an oily film or have pungent aromas. This Nivea balm has neither. It easily absorbs into the skin after a few minutes leaving your face feeling refreshed and ready to start the day.

I have to agree with the other reviewers regarding the packaging. A plastic bottle you could squeeze would be safer and more convenient than the glass bottle. (This should also make it cheaper to ship if you are ordering online given the corresponding reduction in weight.) This is the only drawback of this product.

4 stars (would have given it 5 if not for the packaging).

My husband loves this, does not bother his skin; however, I purchased it at Walmart for around $4.00. Slightly lower price.
