Another early morning shave.

The Palmolive classic shave cream is such a wonderful performer and creates a rich protective lather with only a small amount giving a great lasting classic fragrance throughout the shave making my early morning shave a pleasurable experience.

The Personna C C lab blue blades have performed wonderfully with each shave, a smooth very forgiving yet effcient blade, that i will be using more often in my future shaves.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of The Real Shaving Co. ~ SPF15 Anti-Ageing Moisturiser.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pickups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling devine.

Decent shave today! Still not sold on this razor yet. Got a great face shave, but the narrow angle of effectiveness limits it’s utility as a noggin scraper. Started on the noggin scrape, but after two nicks switched over to my faithful Vector. In any case, BBS all around!

SOTD and Review, 21 November 2019

Today, after 8 days of Stirling Soap shaves (punctuated by an outstanding Murphy and McNeil shave) I trotted out a new acquisition, Razorock's Gold soap and aftershave.

I've had a couple Razorock soaps in my collection previously, so this is my third - and after having had 9 days of tallow-based formulations I'm reminded of the reasons I like those, and why (for other reasons) I also like Razorock's non-tallow soaps.

Being a softer soap, loading time on the Razorock with a damp boar brush is really brief - probably closer to 10-12 seconds rather than the 20 or so that I spend loading something like Stirling (or 30 for a triple milled soap like DR Harris or Fine - of which soaps I'm receiving first today). The lather built very quickly, and produced a reasonably dense, creamy texture - all good.

Performance-wise on the shave, though, I do have to say I would put Stirling quite a bit higher. This isn't to say that the Razorock performance isn't good - it is - but Stirling is noticeably slicker and more protective. Postshave feel is quite nice, but I would also give the edge in that category to Stirling.

I do quite like the aftershaves of Razorock that I've tried (Gold, now, plus Tuscan Oud and Nomad) - a good kick of alcohol and pleasant drydown. Gold's scent is kind of hard for me to place - I get a spicy, warm sense - some amber and perhaps a touch of leather that their website discusses, but it's definitely not prominent. Definitely a pleasant sent that's unlike other things I've got in my den.

Overall, then - good performance, not quite up to par with tallow-based soaps I've got, but nevertheless a worthy addition.

Pre-shave: hot shower and towel
Razor: Merkur 34C HD
Blade: Voskhod (#3)
Bowl: Fine Accoutrements Ceramic Lather Bowl
Soap: Razorock Gold
Aftershave: Razorock Gold splash
