This stone provides benefits that soothe and protect skin immediately after shaving. When applied to freshly shaved skin, it helps close pores, minimize minor cuts, and reduce irritation or razor burn, leaving the face calm. Unlike alcohol-heavy aftershaves that can dry or sting, the Proraso alum block works gently, allowing sensitive skin to recover while maintaining hydration. Its cooling sensation, enhanced by subtle traces of menthol, invigorates the skin, leaving a clean, fresh finish. Ideal for all beard types and lengths, the stone supports healthy post-shave recovery, reduces inflammation, and prevents ingrown hairs. Compact and long-lasting, it fits easily into a grooming kit or travel bag, making it convenient for everyday use or extended trips.

From the first product in 1948 to now, the Martelli family principles hold true: to create professional, quality products that deliver a pleasurable and impeccable shave, in the barbershop and at home.

Review: GREAT product that goes way back. - I'd read about Potassium Alum before purchasing, basically to find out what that Gag in the Warner Bros cartoons was about [wherein someone ingests Alum and it shrinks their heads and makes their Voices high-pitched]. As an Aftershave Stone, it's unmatched, almost magically removing razor irritation throughout one's face, just slide the wet stone all over your freshly-shaven skin: the relief is instant and its styptic properties are immediate. I like it so much that I purchased 5 more Alum stones from separate manufacturers as Christmas gifts. I never knew about Alum before but it's perfect if one shaves, so I'm highly recommending it. Review: Works perfectly - This alum stone works great. When I tried a new (to me) blade, I cut myself and had irritation on my neck. This stone plugged my bleeder and soothed my irritated neck. I have tried other alum blocks, but this one seems to work best for me. It comes in a cardboard box, so I bought a travel size soap carrier to keep it in, to let it dry for re-use. I look forward to seeing how long this one stone last. ## Features - Premium 100% natural solid potassium alum block that completes your shave with a clean, barber-quality finish.

This will soothe cuts or nicks from shaving with a sharp razor like a safety razor or cut throat razor right after it happens so that’s you don’t bleed all over your clothes. For ingrown hairs After 20 years shaving a thick beard on my neck and face I’ve tested every method for removing ingrown hairs and irritation. One thing works. Moisturize whatever the problem area is with a fast absorbing moisturizer 10-12 times per day. Ingrown hairs happen when hair grows back into the skin. Applying moisturizer keeps the new hair follicles slippery and new hairs slide off rather than grow in. Once you’ve curved the problem, start leaning to shave with soap and badger brush and straight razor. **Q: How long do i let it sit on my face before rinsing?** A: I usually leave it on about 30-60 seconds or so. I wet the stone then run it over the shaved area of my face. Then while I'm waiting, I'll rinse my brush which takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute, then I rinse my face with cold water. **Q: how many grams? Please.** A: About 100 grams **Q: Is it necessary to use this and the proraso after shave?** A: If after first shave that you have shave bumps. I recommend post shave stone. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT product that goes way back. *by C***Z on April 10, 2026* I'd read about Potassium Alum before purchasing, basically to find out what that Gag in the Warner Bros cartoons was about [wherein someone ingests Alum and it shrinks their heads and makes their Voices high-pitched].
