Brickell Instant Relief Aftershave (Size Options)

Post-shave skin is compromised skin - the razor removes the top layer of the epidermis along with the hair, leaving the face open to irritation, redness, and moisture loss. Most aftershaves make this worse with high alcohol content that stings, dries, and inflames. Brickell's Instant Relief Aftershave uses no alcohol - it's built instead around calendula, bilberry, sugar cane, and citrus fruit extracts that soothe the skin, tighten pores, balance pH, and deliver immediate moisture to a freshly shaved face.

The formula also includes DMAE for light firming, hyaluronic acid for rapid hydration, and glycolic and lactic acids from natural fruit sources for gentle surface brightening. It absorbs immediately, leaves no sticky residue, and genuinely calms razor burn rather than adding to it.

Who's It For

All skin types - including sensitive skin that reacts to standard alcohol-based aftershaves. Suited to both wet shavers and those using electric razors. Can also be used after waxing or any other hair removal that leaves the skin sensitized.

Key Benefits

• Alcohol-Free Formula - No alcohol means no stinging, no drying, and no inflammation on freshly shaved skin - just immediate calming relief.
• Calendula & Bilberry Soothing - Organic botanicals that reduce post-shave redness and calm razor burn at the skin surface.
• Natural AHA Brightening - Glycolic, lactic, malic, and tartaric acids from sugar cane, bilberry, and citrus sources provide gentle surface exfoliation that keeps the face bright and even-toned.
• Hyaluronic Acid Rapid Hydration - Delivers immediate moisture to the skin right after shaving, when the barrier is most depleted.
• DMAE Light Firming - Supports skin tone and provides a subtle tightening effect that makes the face feel smoother immediately post-shave.
• Jojoba Barrier Repair - Restores the skin's lipid barrier quickly after shaving, preventing moisture loss through the rest of the day.
