Despite its gluey texture this fresh-smelling balm is absorbed surprisingly quickly, and sees off razor-inflicted soreness just as fast. You can really feel it tightening pores and skin on the jawline, which makes it particularly good for oilier skin types.

The sanitised swimming pool scent might seem a bit overpowering at first, but the light balm sinks quickly into the skin and minimises post-shave irritation. It also leaves your face feeling smoother and looking shine-free.

This is absorbed almost immediately and won’t leave a greasy film on your face. It perks up your skin by smoothing out texture and relieving redness. The screw-top isn’t particularly convenient, but the stuff inside is like a posh spa massage in a bottle.

This has a greasy texture and a slightly medicinal smell despite its ‘fragrance-free’ tag. It sinks in and soothes any inflamed patches effectively, while the thicker consistency makes it a good choice for people with dry skin.
