Imperial Bergamot After-Shave (265ml)

A great shave doesn't end with the last pass of the blade — it ends with what goes on the skin afterward. Imperial Barber Products has always understood this, and the Bergamot After-Shave reflects the same commitment to natural, high-performance ingredients that runs through everything the brand makes. Built by barbers who've finished thousands of professional shaves, this is their answer to what should happen the moment the razor is put down.

• Scent: Bergamot — bright, citrusy, and uplifting with a clean, masculine character
• Format: Spray bottle (265ml)
• Best For: All skin types post-shave; sensitive or razor-prone skin; also works as a pre-moisturizer toner or a light alternative to cologne 

Bergamot After-Shave is an alcohol-free, spray-on post-shave treatment that does the full job in one step - cooling, toning, healing, and moisturizing freshly shaved skin without the sting or dryness that alcohol-based alternatives are notorious for. The formula is anchored by two hero ingredients that do the heavy lifting from opposite angles. Alcohol-free Witch Hazel Extract brings the antiseptic, pore-tightening, and skin-balancing properties of a classic toner without any of the irritation, cooling and refreshing the skin on contact while closing pores and restoring balance to the face. PEG-16 Macadamia Glycerides act as a conditioning emollient that protects skin cells from post-shave deterioration, adding genuine moisture and a healthy glow to skin that's just been through the stress of the blade. Organic Chamomile Extract provides natural anti-inflammatory support that calms redness and soothes sensitivity at the skin level, while Bergamot Essential Oil delivers both its signature bright, citrusy scent and its well-documented mood-lifting aromatherapy properties. It also works as a toner layered under a moisturizer for a more intensive hydration routine, and as a light, fresh cologne alternative applied directly to the body. 

Bergamot After-Shave is for anyone who wants a proper finish to their shave without the burn of an alcohol-based product. It suits all skin types and is particularly well suited to sensitive or easily irritated skin where alcohol would do more harm than good. It pairs directly with the Imperial Glycerin Shave Soap and Pre-Shave Oil to complete a full three-step natural shave routine, and it works equally well as a standalone post-shave treatment for anyone not using a full wet shave setup. For deeper hydration, follow with an after-shave balm or moisturiser and use the Bergamot After-Shave as a toner base layer underneath.

• Alcohol-free Witch Hazel Extract (Hamamelis Virginiana) tones and tightens the skin post-shave, closing pores, reducing puffiness, and restoring balance to the face without the dryness or sting of alcohol-based alternatives.
• PEG-16 Macadamia Glycerides act as a conditioning emollient, protecting skin cells from post-shave deterioration while adding moisture and a healthy glow to dry or stressed skin.
• Organic Chamomile Extract provides natural anti-inflammatory properties that calm post-shave redness, soothe razor burn, and support skin recovery particularly in sensitive areas.
• Bergamot Essential Oil delivers a bright, uplifting citrus scent alongside natural antiseptic properties that support a clean, refreshed post-shave environment on the skin.
• Alcohol-free formula means no stinging, no dryness, and no stripping of the skin's natural moisture barrier - a significant advantage for sensitive skin or anyone who shaves frequently.
• PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil helps distribute the formula evenly across the skin on application, ensuring consistent coverage and absorption across the entire shaved area.
• Spray-top application makes dispensing quick, controlled, and hygienic, with no waste or mess.
• Works as a toner base layer applied before moisturizer for an enhanced hydration routine, boosting the effectiveness of whatever moisturiser follows.
• Can be used as a light, fresh cologne alternative by patting directly onto the body - the Bergamot scent is distinctive enough to carry on its own.
• Vegan-friendly, paraben-free, and not tested on animals. 

After shaving, spray a generous amount into your palms, pat hands together lightly, and press into the freshly shaved area rather than rubbing aggressively. Allow to absorb for a moment before following with a moisturiser or after-shave balm if desired. For a more intensive hydration routine, apply the Bergamot After-Shave first as a toner layer, allow it to absorb, then follow with your moisturiser of choice. As a light cologne alternative, spray or pat directly onto the neck, chest, or body after showering.

Bergamot After-Shave is the finishing touch that completes the Imperial shave ritual properly. The alcohol-free formula means it genuinely soothes and heals rather than just sterilizing and stinging, and the combination of Witch Hazel and Macadamia Glycerides does real work on pores, moisture, and post-shave skin recovery. The Bergamot scent is bright and confident without being heavy - clean enough for daily use, distinctive enough to carry into the day without additional fragrance if you prefer a lighter approach. One of the more considered natural after-shaves available at this price point, and a genuine upgrade over whatever splashy-sting alternative you might currently be using.
