I just got some cologne for the first time. Aqua di Gio. It has 2 different bottles, one cologne and one aftershave.

I messed with the cologne last night, I should do 1 spray on each side of my neck and one on my chest from like 6-10 inches away.

But, I don't have a clue on how to apply aftershave. I just washed my face off with cold water and then dipped my finger and patted it on, but I don't know how much I need or how to apply it. Any advice?

everyone has their own cologne tricks

but yeah, you don't need a lot of aftershave to cover your face. you'll know when you put to much on because it won't get absorbed. and that feels nasty

Aftershave is to put on after you shave obviously :p I just put some on my hand (if it's the liquid type) and let it sting my shiny cheeks (and the rest of the areas my razor blade just went over).

Cologne is a perfume and more concentrated, and you use it as a.. perfume.
It has a strong technique, but it lacks oo.

Hmm I don't know it this is a joke but if its an honest question here the advice: Just put a few drops of it on your palm, then rub both hands against each other to apply the stuff onto them and then apply it with both your hands onto your face.

I doubt highly he is curious how to use a spray-bottle, the guy is asking how you effectively put on cologne so that you can smell it with it being too strong, it's a perfectly legitimate question, grow up.

Edit: I just realized I didn't even respond. Either ask your father (unless he is not adept at it as well haha) or just YouTube it, there are plenty of videos.

Pour some on your hand and dab on face, the cologne is one spray to the front of your neck from 3-5 inches away. too much cologne kills it.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

this is not a joke thread. I think some members here might be able to teach me things that I/people I know wouldn't think of.

I think I've figured out a way to put on cologne, but I'll try new ways to see if they work better.

And with the aftershave there are no directions that came with it. I want to apply it right so I'm not wasting my money every time I put some on. I googled "how to apply aftershave" but all I got was the same copy + pasted article that doesn't actually teach anything.

Generally shaving is a prerequisite to using aftershave.

3 sprays of cologne seems like over kill. When I use to wear it I would just spray one on. For aftershave, just apply it to the areas you shaved. Dont use to much, a little goes a long ways.
