I've noticed people say to apply alum after a shave, let it set for a bit (30 seconds?) and rinse it off.
It's hard to explain, but when I go to rinse it off, it doesn't feel like there is anything there to rinse off. My skin feels "non-slick" almost like it's been washed with one of those old soap bars that would dry out your skin and make it feel almost "tacky" with zero slickness.
I'm sure that doesn't make sense, but regardless, does the alum actually rinse off?
