Review on 🌿 Potassium Alum Stick 60g: All-Natural Deodorant Crystal for Long-Lasting Freshness by Monica Nixon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Much better than a styptic pen

I recently started wet shaving with a double edged razor. As you may or may not know, new razors can have scratches/cuts on the neck and even worse shaving burns. It comes with practice and finding blades that work for you (I'll be ordering some feather blades soon). That being said, I've had plenty of cuts and a few razor burns depending on which part of my neck I covet too much. I have used styptic pens in the past such as the Clubman Pinaud styptic pen (great for cuts but very dry and chalky). I read the reviews on this and other alum blocks and figured this would work for me. ADVANTAGES: - Price - very cheap compared to other products. - durable. I've had it for over a month now and the block looks brand new. As mentioned by others, this thing will last forever - I've used alum blocks before but found them cumbersome as you have to find something to store the block in when you're done. It has a built-in lid that screws right on. Great if you must travel. - Super fast relief from cuts and cuts. The bleeding stops pretty quickly. Like a gentle touch while shaving. - Dries quickly but you can still apply aftershave. CONS: - No real cons other than a slight burn from alum, but that's normal for this stuff. - The product comes in very simple packaging, but I didn't mind. Not enough to remove stars. Overall I would definitely recommend the product if you have a sensitive face or get razor burn. If you're new to wet shaving like me, you MUST get one of these.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
