What was the othe rproduct like clearhead? I love clearhead but never see it in stores so I am just wondering what other choice you found and how it worked out?

I found a home made recipe for Tend Skin here.  Do a search.    Can't beat the price and it really works for me.

Pure Witch Hazel, 70% Iso Alcohol and 20 unbuffered aspirin is all you need.   Makes a bunch and it is dirt cheap.  I also add some aloe.  The recipe doesn't call for it, but my skin seems to like Aloe so I add it.

My neck is really sensitive so I always use my Tend Skin afterwards and the redness and irritation that sometimes occurs is often gone within 30 minutes.    I also follow up with some Nivea Shaving balm.   

I had a routine down shaving WTG then ATG on my whole head, then I suddenly had a horrible attack of bumps and irritation on my neck.   I think I got too comfortable and started rushing causing me to put too much pressure on my headblade.    I took 4-5 days off after that, several of the bumps formed what looked to be white head pimples.    I continued to use my Tend skin and have been very careful since.  It has only been a week, but I am sly once again and have no irritation so far.

Good luck.  If you can't find the tend skin recipe you can also use google.
