Nice choice for after shave oil
Color: Green, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I couldn’t wait to try this after shave oil after using Vogcrest’ facial trimmer (which works wonders also!) on my eyebrows and other areas this afternoon. The smell isn’t loud as anticipated, though it is like an earthy scent but it doesn’t stick after the oil dries. As seen in the video, the consistency isn’t too thick to be applied to the face, or anywhere else after shaving. I put it on my hand to give an idea of the absorption and consistency. It rubs in easily and settles in the skin nicely. I’ve tried others that are too thick, or leave like a sticky after feel, which this doesn’t. Glad I tried this out! I look forward to seeing if it slows the regrowth or not. May come back & update.

I like it
Great after-shave product. It deeply moisturizes the skin and even makes my tattoo look more vibrant and defined. I haven’t noticed any significant effect on slowing hair growth yet, but it completely prevents irritation and leaves the skin feeling smooth and comfortable. For the price, it’s an excellent product and definitely worth trying.

Lightweight
I’m impressed with VG VOGCREST Cyperus Rotundus Oil. From the first use, it felt lightweight yet nourishing, and it absorbs beautifully without leaving a greasy residue. I especially appreciate that it’s all-natural, which gives me peace of mind about what I’m putting on my skin and hair.

Got a rash from it
Color: Green, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I'm in that percentage of women who have chin hair, unfortunately. I shave almost every day so I bought this thinking maybe it would help stretch it out a few days. I used it twice and broke out in a rash (just on the chin/neck area). I was sitting at work and subtley scratched my chin area. Thought nothing of it. Then I scratched a little more. Until I realized something wasn't right. By the time I got home I could see the red. My skin can sometimes be sensitive to new cleansers/creams/oils. It may work for some, but it didn't work for me. On a positive note, it's odorless, lol.
