Pre shave: Hot shower and Neutrogena glycerin soap bar
Razor: 1958 Rhodium Rocket
Blade: Personna GEM PDG (13)
Brush: Yaqi 26mm Bluish Violet synthetic
Bowl: Captains choice copper
Soap: The Glasgow soap company Iron Brew
Post shave: The Goodfellas Smile Orange Empire aftershave splash
A very enjoyable evening shave with a new razor and some amazing scents.
3 smooth and efficient passes once again with no post shave issues to report.
So what's the Rhodium Rocket like?
Well, like any other flare tip, but prettier
Middle of the road mild in terms of aggression but like its American cousins, extremely efficient and very smooth with a great balance which makes it easy to let the razor do the work for you.
It's beyond my limited photography to capture how it looks but anyone who's seen rhodium plated knurling will know when I say that in person, it gleams like a jewel.
Glasgow soap co's Iron Brew performed very well once again in conjunction with my pre-shave soap, providing a very well cushioned, effortless glide for the razor.
And TGS Orange Empire provided the perfect end to such an enjoyable shave with it's soothing properties and rich complementary Citrus and amber scent.
Hope you all had a great weekend!
