Fun fact: aftershave was originally invented by Roman barbers to prevent infection caused by dull razor blades. (It is not, in fact, a cologne for masochists, like I always believed.) While the Romans soaked spider webs in oil and vinegar to reap the antibacterial benefits, nowadays we rely on more scientifically backed (and easier to find) ingredients, like witch hazel and grain alcohol, to keep skin clear and healthy. Now, if you’re stumped on what to get Dad for Fathers’ Day, this is great news! Because it’s so simple to make, DIY aftershave is one of my favorite last-minute gift ideas for Dad.
