Alum, a natural mineral found in Europe and used by the Egyptians more
than 4,000 years ago, is a shaving essential for any well-groomed man.
Its antiseptic properties calm razor burn and soothe irritations, and
help stop bleeding in the event of a nick or cut.
The Art of Shaving Alum Block and
Styptic Pen are appropriate for all skin types and can be used as an astringent for oily complexions.
