Aloe vera gel or apple cider vinegar make great, easy, inexpensive natural aftershaves. You can also whip up a mix of shea butter, coconut oil, essential oils of your choice (if you want fragrance), and witch hazel.

What's the point of aftershave?

The purpose of using an aftershave is to re-hydrate the skin once you've shaved, quite literally after the shave. This is because shaving can dry out the skin and cause it to feel tight and even a little prickly. That uncomfortable feeling is caused by a lack of moisture in the skin.
