Very Important part of your shave kit
This is the along with pre shaving cream is one of the most important items you should own if you are new to DE shaving. It does give a slight stinging feeling to let you know where you went to rough but it does cool down your face and closes up those nicks. I cant recommend this Alum block enough, well worth the price as it provides 100% comfort.

Allum or styptic?
It has to be allum. The styptic pencil gets messy very quickly but the allum block is cleaned easily and lasts longer. The allum block does not break in half like the pencil simply because of its shape and is therefore much more user-friendly.

An Absolute Must Have
I have used styptic pencils in the past but find that they tend to disintegrate or break when they get wet. This block has worked really well for me for the past year and as it's solid doesn't break or melt when wet.
