You'll get a good deal at La Bariera

I've shopped at La Bariera a few times over the years and I consider them to be a very professional organisation. They have a good selection of shaving related items which are usually in stock, all at reasonable prices. Highly recommended if you want a good deal.

Independent source for an Osma Bloc.

Just a lucky find on Google, after looking for a non Amazon source for a bloc alum. I bought the Osma Tradition Alum bloc 100g, in the plastic case for £7.99 plus delivery.
My last, smaller Osma bloc. lasted me ages even agter dropping it several times on a tiled floor.

This product arrived very well packaged & in perfect condition.

Great product range, great prices, and great service

Great product range, great prices, and great service.

Prompt dispatch, well packed, small leak from one bottle although you can't always stop that due to the nature of the product and how it's packed.

Would recommend and would use again for all shaving supplies that you can never find on the high street!
