Osma Alum Block
|
Customer Rating:
|
The alum block, an old staple in traditional barbershops, is an all-natural astringent that instantly closes razor nicks. Made from potassium alum, this block soothes and cools delightfully when rubbed over the entire face after a shave. Instead of taking shortcuts by depending on cheaper minerals and product from Asia, Osma Laboratories has decided to reduce their carbon footprint by only using the very best products found in France.

This stuff is nice. I rubbed it all over my face and neck, not just where I nicked myself. It stings a little bit, but does the job. I followed up with Proraso sensitive aftershave balm.

This is a good item to have handy for real small nicks and to fully close the pours after the shave. It is an astringent, so if you are being too rough with the razor and irritating the skin, you will feel it. It will also dry your skin out, so definitely use a moisturizing aftershave. A little short term pain, but it will lessen your long term suffering considerably and let you kow how well you handled the razor.

Stings a bit, but in a good way. Immediately stops any bleeding or the appearance of razor burn. I use this immediately following the shave, follow up with cold water, then my aftershave.
I think this is a must-have. |
