The Bluebeards Revenge Alum Block

I have thought quite hard for the best way to describe this. For me the best description is when you look at it you wonder what is the point of it, after you use it you wonder how you ever managed without it. For wet shaving its amazing and gives you feed back on areas that have been wrongly shaved. You will experience some stinging so if you want to perfect your shave, get one use it and you will never want to go without.

My product arrived in good time, edges are slightly rounded and will get more rounded with time, product is solid and sheer with only slight imperfections in surface. Smaller than I thought but still a good size for post-shave routine. The only complaint is the package which isn't amazing but provides a decent enough case for it to sit on your shelf. If its a problem, it can be stored on any standard soap dish. These last a long if you don't drop them so £5.99 well spent! Edit: I dropped mine and have ordered a new one as was very happy with the first until it shattered when I dropped it

Great value alum block. If you have never used before, alum blocks help seal nicks when shaving or can be worked across the skin to tighten the skin after shaving. They are pretty much the same so buy the cheapest you can. Anything over the base price is branding or packaging. Had an Art Of Shaving one from the US with a plastic case previously. Product pretty much identical but a solid case is helpful.

This stuff is like magic. Really stings, but closes up any cuts. If you have any bad cuts, you might want to check on them later on, as it seems to make the blood scab / crystallise and go brown? Still better than bleeding all over your shirt on a Monday morning! It's smaller than I thought it would be, but it gets used really slowly, mine's a couple of months in and still looks the same size / shape. It definitely doesn't get used up at the same rate as soap. Only downside is the plastic box it comes in. It's really fiddly to open / close. I'd prefer if it was a proper tub that has a hinge, or just wasn't advertised as a feature, it's essentially just packaging.

Bought shortly after buying a straight razor and learning how to use it the hard way. Works well at stopping small nics however do not expect miracles if it is a deep cut as it would not work and cause you excess pain. I use it post shave aswell to identify where I have applied too much pressure and to stop the bleed of any small cuts.

Well for this review I would like to break the rules and ask amazon what were they thinking when they put the flavour part up for review. Hmmm not to sure it an item that should be consumed. But on another note this dose the job and dose it well.

Tried a few different blocks by other makers this one by far does a superb job if you are like me and still have little nicks now and then when shaving with a DE Razor,seals the cuts almost instantly and yes it does sting a little.

I don’t know how it does it but it just does. Using this block has made shaving rash a thing of the past. Wet the bloc and rub it over your chin and neck and you’ll feel a tingle in the places that, had you not used the bloc, would have become sore as hell later in the day. This also kind of tells you we’re you should perhaps be taking a little more care when dragging that razor over your neck in a sleep hazed stupor in the mornings. I bought a second one for my wife (which earnt me a slap) but when I explained it wasn’t for her chin (as if I would!) but rather might be as useful on legs and armpits it earnt me some good husband credits after she’s used it a couple of times. I would definitely recommend.

Ottimo prodotto

Comment ne pas mettre du papier bulle autour d'une pierre cassante quand elle doit voyager et faire de nombreux km. C'est vraiment de la négligence.

Perfect. Soft alum stone that leaves a pleasant sensation of freshness.

Großes Stück Aluanstein, top für den Preis.

Cumple muy bien.
