Osma Alum Block, 75g

This was my first purchase of an alum block and love it. Cannot recommend it high enough.

I used cheaper alum blocks and they seem to leave crumbles on the skin, this is a very hard block that lasts a long time and leaves a smooth film

Brilliant product and a must-have for all shavers. It helps stop nicks but really calms the skin down after a shave (I use it after my head shave). Lasts a long time too so great for the price. Completely natural too.

If razor burn is a problem for you - it was for me - this is highly recommended. Sharp without stinging, application right after the shave and prior to any moisturiser really helps is reducing the redness. Can go a ways to stopping some small nicks, too.

I have no idea if this is effective or not, but it's been part of my routine since I started wet shaving. It's expensive, but it lasts a long time. I haven't had one crumble on me yet which I've read can be an issue with other brands.
