    I don’t have the balm, but the after shave is the most moisturizing I have (it’s also the only artisan after shave I have, so this may be a low bar to clear).

    As to stinging, if it’s fragrance burn, bowl lathering could help.

      Interesting. What is it about bowl lathering that would change it? The Stag soap burn is really never too bad for me, but I have noticed that the severity of it does seem to change from shave to shave. Today for example was a very mild burn. Maybe my lathering process was a little different today (I took my time with it today), making it more similar to using a bowl?

        If you face lather, you scrub the soap with the bristles against your skin much more than if you build the lather in a bowlqnd then only apply it on your face. At least for me, I noticed a clear difference.

          Ah, that totally makes sense. I generally prefer face lathering but might give that a try. I have a scuttle I haven’t used in forever, this might be a good time to use it, especially now that the weather is cold.
