Omega Potassium Alum Stick After Shave Shaving Facial Toner Treatment of Razor Cuts & Nicks

More protected than using a bare block and not as slippery.Two previous blocks have fallen from counter height and broken in several pieces.

So much better than the typical block shape, very helpful for nicks and cuts on the neck/chin area.

It's an alum stick. They aren't all equal but all do the same job. If you are a head shaver alum stick or blk is a must have.This one gets 4stars for me because of the handle, however it isn't quite as smooth as another brand I use. When applying to the head this one starts out a little gritty but the handle is very convenient. Time will tell if it wears down evenly or eventually I will lose the ability to use handle. Babying it, in hopes that it wears evenly.

Love it

So, you know how they say good things come in small packages? Well, they must have been talking about the Omega Potassium Alum Stick because let me tell you, this thing is tiny! I mean, I was expecting something the size of an underarm deodorant, but instead, I got a stick that's shorter than my pinky finger. Talk about a surprise twist! See my attached photo next to a Rockwell 6C.But don't let its pint-sized stature fool you; this little alum stick packs a punch. According to my pals (who apparently have the same tiny stick), it's a durable little guy that can last for over two years without showing much wear and tear. Plus, its compact size means it won't hog precious real estate in your dopp kit, making it the perfect travel companion for your globetrotting adventures.Now, onto the nitty-gritty: does it actually work? Well, it's an alum stick, folks. It's not exactly rocket science. Swipe it on your skin after shaving, and voila! No more razor burn or irritation. It's as simple as that. However, I must issue a word of caution: if you're like me and have skin as sensitive as a delicate flower, you might want to proceed with caution. Turns out, I may have a slight allergy to alum, as evidenced by the persistent itchy rash that plagued me after each use. But hey, that's on me, not the product.So, in conclusion, if you're blessed with skin that's tougher than a rhino's hide, then go ahead and give the Omega Potassium Alum Stick a whirl. It's small, it's mighty, and it gets the job done. Just be sure to listen to your skin, folks. It's the only one you've got.Razor in photo: Rockwell 6CCol. MULLY

I like the base. It allows me to hold it without dropping it.The size is convenient.

Well friends, I'm sorry to say that this formerly very useful product has declined from its original version which I have bought several times. My most recent purchase came out of the box with an undisclosed product change. Earlier examples were made in Italy. The new one is marked "Made in China." Not a welcome change, and the price is the same as the Italian-made examples. I doubt I'll order another. Too bad, as it really is a good idea.

Easy to apply and easy to store. Does the job. I will be buying this product again.
