Alum stone is a natural antiseptic after shaving. It has a hemostatic effect, closes the pores and leaves the skin soft and smooth. Perfect for use if you accidentally cut yourself while shaving.
Edwin Jagger Alum Block is one of the highest quality alum products on the market, so it is a great choice for those who want to try it for the first time.

After shaving, rinse your face with cold water to remove any remaining shaving cream. Moisten the alum block with cold water and gently run the block over the moist skin of the face and neck, paying special attention to areas with cuts or irritation. Leave the product on the skin for 1-2 minutes to act. Rinse your face with cold water again and pat it dry with a towel. After use, rinse the alum block, dry it, and store it in a dry place to extend its service life.

It works well. Shockingly well.
I was not accustomed to using alum or styptic pencils when I first learned to shave in my youth; I used to dab the nicks with small pieces of toilet paper. Then, I started using electric razors. Recently, my trusty Braun razor died after providing 14 years of faithful service. I decided to return to shaving "The Old-Fashioned Way." So, I bought a block of this so that I could do something better than dabbing blood with TP. This stuff works. Egad, does it work! I had a few small pinprick-size nicks after my first shave and this alum block quickly staunched the bleeding, and made my whole face feel quite tingly.

Good but lacks a case
Would have been great if it came with it's own case. From looking at the product pics you would think it does. Especially considering larger and cheaper (not referring to quality) alum blocks come with cases.

An elegant solid alum block from Edwin Jagger
An elegant solid alum block as only Edwin Jagger could provide. Its nice, clear plastic packaging makes a great little case. It’s the perfect size, as you can see from the photo (shown with Feather blade, Mekur Futur razor and Edwin Jagger styptic pencil). An alum block and styptic pencil are *essential* for wet shaving with double or single edge razors, and very simple to use: After shaving and rinsing, simply moisten the block with cold water and rub over your entire face, even where there aren’t any bleeders. Use the wide sides for face—the smaller ends are perfect for the area above the upper lip. It stops any and all small bleeders immediately, and provide an antiseptic seal. Any bigger cuts require the use of a styptic pencil. Alum does sting slightly, which is a plus for discovering areas that you don’t see bleeding, but are suffering from razor burn. After using, I lightly towel my face and the block dry, then add Trumpers Skin Food to moisturize my face and finish the deal. An hour later my face feels great!

Good size block
I was using The Art of Shaving alum block; now I will use Edwin Jagger Alum Block forever. Good size block, feels great. The only thing they should improve is to provide a sturdy case to store and transport the block.

Elegant alum block!
Another excellent product by EJ. Sure, there are let's expensive alum blocks you can buy here on amazon, but this is very high quality and matches all of my other Edwin Jager stuff. Only EJ could make an alum block so elegant!

Great Product
I have used this stuff for a very long time. The last block was about 1/3 the size of this one and lasted a long time. This one should become part of my estate. It is a valued part of my shaving routine.

Tells you if blade or razor works
If you are new to wet shaving this will tell you what blade works with your shaver or vice versus. Rub on right after shaving and the amount of sting or not will tell you. You will save lots of time and money finding the right combination of blade, razor and soap before you giving up. When you get close you could try Feather or Kai blades but too sharp to start with.
