Thread: Alum bar/Sypteic stick

What is an Alum Bar and is it used for the same thing as a Sypteic stick I don't have a clue can someone help me

Some folks use the Alum bar like a styptic to stop little nicks yeah ... I tend to use the styptic to stop little nicks then after a shave rub the alum bar over my face like an aftershave ... it leaves your face nice n smooth ..
Think it's made of some sort of potash ( it's written on the side of mine ) ..

hope this helps!

they make some of this into stick deodorant which works by making the armpits in hospitable (chemically ) for the lovely odor producing bacteria... but you will still sweat ... just not stink as much.

But where will all the poor, homeless odour-producing bacteria go? Please, sir, have a heart!
