Great for shaving nicks [SEP] I have started shaving with a safety razor and well I'm still learning it so I have had a few nicks and cuts.  I got this so I could stop the bleeding from nicks.  It comes with a decent amount that I am able to fit in a tin I keep next to my other shave gear and has stopped the bleeding from the nicks I have.  I like it more than the styptic sticks I have used in the past.
