Real alum consists of 100% potassium alum (=potassium aluminum sulphate) and crystal water. In contrast to many alum sticks, which primarily contain aluminum sulphate, the shaving stone leaves no white traces when used. 

An alum block is a must have for any man's grooming kit. It can be used as an astringent to soothe irritation, a coagulant - closes and heals injuries caused by shaving. It can also be used as a deodorant due to its antiperspirant and antibacterial properties.

Real alum stone can even be used as a substitute for aftershave, but use with caution, because aggressive residues could form on the skin.

And if all that wasn't enough, in the 50's it was used as an alternative to hair pomade - applied to wet hair. As they dry out, you can count on the hairstyle to last all day.

Founded in Florence in 1908, the Ludovico Martelli company has been innovating the knowledge of shaving professionals for more than three generations. Used with pride and satisfaction by Italian men and hairdressers, Proraso is a timeless classic that transforms the shaving ritual into an enjoyable daily habit. Always in search of excellence, Ludovico Martelli witnesses a company philosophy that still passionately respects traditional methods and processing times.
