Product Overview

The traditional finish, by its oldest name: Pearl’s 100 g block of pure fitkari, alum stone, the astringent mineral wet shavers and barbers have rubbed over fresh shaves for generations.

Product Specifications

What This Block Does

Alum is the oldest aftershave that still works: an astringent mineral that tightens skin, calms the surface a blade just crossed, and tells you honestly where your technique slipped.

The claims kept are the mineral’s honest ones: astringent toning, help with minor nicks, and the brief sting that maps a too-close pass. It is a single natural ingredient, and like all alum it should be dried after use to last.

Who This Is Best For

How To Use It

Wet the block in cold water, glide it over the shaved skin, wait half a minute, then rinse. Dry the block before it goes back on the shelf.

A solid mineral, it flies with no liquid limits.

Care and Storage

Dry it after each use and keep it out of standing water; a dry block lasts years.
