Alum Stick 12gr

Alum is a crystalline aluminium salt used after shaving primarily for its astringent action. Applied to the skin, it helps stop minor bleeding from shaving nicks and may inhibit bacterial growth.

OSMA Styptic Pencil is a compact, concentrated tool for dealing with the occasional small nick during wet shaving. Its aluminium-sulphate formula acts locally through an astringent effect, helping to control superficial bleeding without applying a product over the whole face. The pencil shape makes contact precise, while the protective tube keeps it convenient beside the razor or in a travel grooming kit. A brief sting at the point of application is normal for this type of product. Choose it instead of a full alum block when you primarily need targeted care rather than an all-over post-shave mineral finish.

What does it do: Its concentrated astringent action helps control superficial bleeding from a small shaving nick exactly where it is applied.
