The alum block is really perfect for the wet shave! It stop bleeding, repair micro-cuts and leaves skin smooth (but dry). Without peculiar smell, can be dispensed after shave balm to hydrate and perfume a little neck and face. But 75g is little. The block quickly reduced for daily use (but relative) so do not hesitate to order 2 at once.
Oh yes, I almost forgot the last advantage the block crumbles not :)! (Unlike another brand also available on amazon)
