Alum Block

Alum, a natural mineral found in Europe, was used by the Egyptians more than 4,000 years ago as a shaving essential. Its antiseptic properties calm razor burn, soothe irritations and help stop bleeding in the event of a nick or cut.

After shaving, moisten stone with cold water and rub it gently on the face. For minor cuts moisten the stone with cold water and place it over the cut for a tightening sensation that leaves your skin feeling comfortable. Appropriate for all skin types. Can be used as an astringent for oily complexions.
