Dr. Squatch Wood Barrel Bourbon Shave Lotion, 2.5 fl oz

Dr. Squatch Wood Barrel Bourbon Shave Lotion is the brand's Soothing Post Shave, a moisturizing finishing step for the face and neck after shaving. The 2.5 fl oz (74 mL) package highlights bisabolol, resurrection plant and shea butter with a Barrel Aged Bourbon scent.

Post-shave moisture, not shaving lubricant

Apply this lotion after the razor step. It is distinct from Wood Barrel Bourbon Easy Glide Shave Butter, which is used while shaving, and from the brand's general body lotion.

The carton describes moisturizing skin after shaving and reducing the appearance of razor bumps. Treat that as a cosmetic appearance claim, not a promise to prevent bumps, eliminate irritation or treat a skin condition.

Bisabolol, resurrection plant and shea butter

The published formula includes bisabolol, Selaginella lepidophylla extract and shea butter, alongside glycerin, hydrolyzed jojoba esters and Lactobacillus ferment. It also lists mountain pepper, barley and ginger extracts.

The carton states paraben-free. The manufacturer describes the product as created for all skin types, but that does not guarantee individual tolerance. Review the ingredient panel if you have fragrance, barley or other ingredient sensitivities.

How to use and what it smells like

The manufacturer's directions are to apply one or two pumps to the face and neck after shaving to help soothe skin. Follow your current package's directions and precautions. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

The Wood Barrel Bourbon fragrance profile combines sandalwood, oaked-bourbon and amber impressions with sweet, woody notes. Those are scent descriptions, not confirmation that whiskey, sandalwood oil, chocolate or vanilla extract are separately added. The full formula lists naturally derived fragrance.
