## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the product really stop the bleeding while shaving or after I've finished ?**
A: Hi there, what I tend to do is to shave as per normal then rinse with COLD water. Then as soon as I have rinsed I leave my face wet then simply run the block over my face. It will give you a wake up! Then simply pat dry. In all honesty it wont cure open surgery but definitly help with the nicks etc. To sum this up I would not be without mine. They really are good and OSMA are good. Simply put the block back in its box. No need to dry it, the cardboard soaks it all up until the next use. Hope this helps, Laurie

**Q: Hello, is this packaged in paper or plastic?**
A: Hi the packaging is cardboard. I remove pre shave from the packet so doesnt get wet then dry and place back post shave. Last for ever but dont drop as will shatter. Hope this helps.

**Q: Is this natural alum or synthetic?**
A: Natural. A synthetic salt block could be tricky to make and would probably cost more than £4.50 :-)

**Q: How is the product packaged for delivery? There are lots of reviews mentioning stones arriving broken**
A: I guess it depends on the retailer that ships it. Amazon themselves choose to place in a folded piece of cardboard and consider it to be adequate. We however use a high grade of cardboard carton with either paper or eco sheet packaging peanuts to ensure no damages.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Perfect Finishing Touch - Now A Requirement!
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 30 July 2012*

This is great product. Like many here I had never used one of these until I purchased this from here recently. Actually I'd never heard of it before - and my friends haven't either! I happened to come across it while researching traditional wet shaving. Now I wouldn't be without it.My problem is sensitive skin and often have skin burn following shaving, my skin seems to hold heat for a while following shaving. But I also have a fairly quick bristle growth rate so have to shave regularly. I've tried various pre/during/post shaving products and methods to try and help and this has been one of the successes.The block arrived quickly in the nice box as pictured, the block is tough and cold, like a stone/mineral block, small in size but should last for ages. Following shaving I use it by wetting and wiping over my face and neck, 3 or 4 coatings. keep the block wet as it does dry quickly and is tough to use when it is drying. Leaves a very pleasant cool feeling, skin feels taut and smooth, seems to seal any nicks/cuts and leaves a nice sheen. Some prefer to wash their face once applied but I left it on because it feels really nice and protective on your skin. Seems to stop your skin becoming too oily as well; you feel clean and fresh.Very pleasant product. It's now a requirement in my shaving process, I can't recommend it highly enough. Natural products always win.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best value alum block
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 8 March 2016*

An excellent value alum block.Certain well known shops sell their own branded blocks for astronomical prices but what you get is exactly the same. I have in the past paid three times as much for a block from a certain Mayfair based shaving emporium but alum is alum and I can categorically state from a users experience that there is no difference whatsoever. There is no need to pay more.If you have not used alum before as part of your shaving ritual it is something you should definitely consider. Alum is a natural styptic and anti-septic and will seal and sterilise any small nicks in the skin. It will also help you to improve your technique and tell you when your razor is getting blunt. You can expect a little bit of stinging after applying the alum no matter what but if you are scraping the skin and causing lots of abrasion or your blade is blunt then you will really feel it.My technique is to finish shaving, wash face in warm water to remove soap, submerge face in cold water them make alum block wet with cold water and pass thoroughly over all shaved areas. Follow that with a skin tonic and a moisturiser and your face will feel smoother than it ever has.An extra benefit of using alum I find is that I hardly ever get collar burn if I shave in the morning and then wear a tie. It really settles the skin down again quickly after shaving.Tip: alum is a salt so it melts (slowly) in water. Make sure you dry it off thoroughly after use and store it somwhere dry. If you do then this small block will last a very long time - probably more than a year.Tip: Alum is an anti-septic and can be very helpful for acne even if you don't shave. I bought my teenage son one and he uses it to keep his spots under control.Tip: You can even use it as a deodorant because it closes pores and kills bacteria - you might want to get two blocks though if you are using one on your pits!
