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.

Who is it for: For wet shavers who want a precise, portable solution for occasional small shaving nicks.

Who is it not for: Not for deep or persistent cuts, large damaged areas, the eye area or known sensitivity to aluminium salts. Seek appropriate first aid for bleeding that does not stop.

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

How to use: Moisten the tip with clean water and press it gently against the nick for a few seconds. Repeat once if necessary. Rinse the pencil after use, allow it to dry and replace the protective cap only when dry.

INGREDIENTS: Aluminium Sulfate, Aqua (Water).
