Thread: Alum blocks

Yes,,, heavy witch hazel,,,, let it dry & apply the aftershave

I bought the Alum block and have used it, but I am not sure I notice a benefit (unless I cut myself). AS balm is most critical to keep my skin from getting to dry.

I Used alum for yrs when I lived in a warmer clime,when we moved few yrs back to a colder clime with much lower Humidy and far hotter summers.
My skin would dry out big time.
I quit using alum,that solved the problem,a little witch hazel,some bay rum,solved the problem with dry skin.JME

Is that like heavy water? You better stay away from that stuff.
