Bloc Osma Alum
Posted by Nigel on 29th May 2021
This product is something I wish that I'd discovered many years ago. It should widely used by everyone. All those years of putting up with razor burn, nicks and accidental cuts would have been so much easier to cope with. Magically, it seals all the little cuts and nicks, stopping the bleeding.
Now, as an experienced and mature adult self shaver using a safety razor I find this Bloc Osma Alum invaluable.
It's incredibly easy to use. Just wet it under the tap and rub all over your face. There is no scent, no grease, cream or any deposit left on your face. It really works quite magically.
I have no hesitation in recommending it.
It's also a handy size, smaller than a bar of soap and a vital inclusion not only for regular shaving but for traveling with too. I'd never be without it.
I'll give it 10/10

First time alum block user, and it is great for reducing irritation, and closing up any nicks. Handle carefully so you don't drop it.

I would advise you not to drop this on the bathroom floor. Nonetheless, this is a must-have. Great for reducing irritation after shaving.

Great for beginners
Posted by Mark on 30th Dec 2015
I am not experienced in the art of shaving, and I have only started using a DE razor last week and bought this with it.
I must say, I wish I had discovered this sooner as it is suitable with any shaving razor used. I still have acne on my face, and as a result I do bleed. However now I can apply this and keep going.
I must point out that at times it does sting a little, but only for a very short time so it's not a big deal. I also have read a review that said it stopped spots from growing. Worth a try if you ask me

Should have got this years ago!
Posted by Brendan on 13th Oct 2014
Excellent product and since I've got it, it is an essential part of my shaving regime. I love using it after my shave. I always had a bit of shaving rash on my part of my neck for years. Since I used this product it has simply vanished!

Necessary item

I find this quite essential for shaving. It indicates where I'm doing a really bad job of shaving, therefore giving me the opportunity to review my technique. It helps seal nicks and cuts, also.

Essential

Whatever post shave products you prefer, an alum block is essential IMO. Keep it somewhere cold for a really soothing effect!

Great after shave treatment
Posted by Paul on 18th Oct 2013
I wet my face with a cold rinse and give it the once over with this. Takes care of any razor burn and small nicks perfectly. Every serious shaver needs one of these.

Excellent addition to my shaving routine
Posted by Pat on 22nd Sep 2013
I have a patch near my adam's apple that always gets red / razorburned after a shave no matter how careful I am when shaving. Since I started using this Alum Block not only has the area healed perfectly but I have noticed a big improvment in my face in general. No more spots! After I shave I rinse off any soap and wet my face. A quick rub of the block is followed by brushing my teeth and flossing. By the time that's finished it is time to rinse off the face and pat dry. I store the block on a glass shelf in my medicine cabinet. Unless I drop it and it shatters it should last several years based on the rate of wear so far. I can't believe I am only discovering this now. All serious wet shavers should use one.

Essential part of shaving routine
Posted by Ole on 22nd Sep 2013
I find this product excellent for helping to deal with post shave skin sensitivity. It really helps in identifying where I am over shaving and helps to seal those minor nicks. After applying allow to dry and then rinse face with cold water, pat dry and apply some skin food and face will feel superb.

An all Natural Product
Posted by Martin on 22nd Sep 2013
Like the description says simply wet the block under cold running water and rub on the face. Nicks and cuts are healed and cleared up. Makes great anti-perspirant for the underarms as well.

Works very well
Posted by Zito on 22nd Sep 2013
It makes your face burn a lot after shaving, but it works, if you get a cut or red mark, this will help you. I bought the other Alum Block of blue box, but I received the Osma Alum Block (the best, I guess). This web store is unbelievable. My package arrived in Brazil in record time, just 12 days. I'll buy again and again. Thanks.
