Hi All-- I'm starting to do some research for a Sharpologist article about which aftershave balms work best to get rid of razor burn the quickest. I'm specifically thinking of burn (redness, irritation) vs. shave bumps or ingrowns. Please suggest some products I can purchase to test. Also interested in DIY solutions you've tried that worked well (others have suggested tea bags, aloe vera, sunburn creams, etc.).
(Yes, I know that the best way to fix razor burn is to avoid it in the first place with proper prep/lather/technique

I'm interested in this topic as well as I have sensitive skin and I get what I call "superficial" razor burn from time to time -- redness that lasts for a hour or two and goes away without any enduring discomfort. I've not yet found a balm or product that soothes this redness -- as a matter of fact, most balms I've tried seem to inflame it. Will be following this thread (and article!) with interest.

I noticed this same thing when I was using myrsol splashes. Loved the feel and it was a superficial redness but I stopped using them because of the redness. I dont really get the redness from the balms I've used though
