Where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean we find the port city of Astoria. Located on the Northern border of Oregon this area of the Pacific Northwest is known for the river, the sea, the forest, and its spirit of adventure. Founded in 1811, Astoria was the first permanent settlement on the West Coast. Oh, and let’s not forget the 1985 film “The Goonies” was filmed there! We got our inspiration for this scent from watching one of our childhood favorite movies, The Goonies. We recently watched the movie with our eleven-year-old son, and couldn’t help but feel the nostalgia of a kid growing up in the 80s. There is a scene in the movie when the boys are going out in search of the pirate treasure. The air is misty and foggy; you see the waves crashing by the cliffs. The boys are surrounded by evergreen trees. The anticipation of adventure awaits them!
Our Astoria fragrance is a complex aquatic-woodsy scent with an evergreen crispness that will give you the feeling of being in a forest of Douglas Fir on the Oregon coast where a cool, brisk breeze blows across the water. This scent is sure to be popular in the cooler months as well as a heavy-hitter for summer use. The fragrance is created in-house by Zachary and has just a kiss of menthol for added refreshment.
Scent notes: Astoria is a blend of Cypress, Fir, Oakmoss, Balsam, Sage, Eucalyptus, Blue Spruce, White Birch, Mint, and Sweet Osmanthus over an Aquatic Accord
One of the best things you can do to help promote youthful and healthy skin is to keep it moisturized! Our Post Shave Balm is the lightweight and non-greasy way to complete your perfect shave, or an excellent moisturizer to use anytime (and every time) you wash your face. Moon balms are made without the drying de-natured alcohol found in most aftershaves and are loaded with several skincare essentials that will keep the skin protected and help with soothing any irritation incurred from shaving. Here are just a few of the stars in our line-up…
Grapeseed Oil- A byproduct of winemaking, Grapeseed Oil is heavy in omega-6 fatty acids. Known to help accelerate the healing of skin and slow the formation of wrinkles.
Squalane Oil- A plant based antioxidant that detoxifies, hydrates, and possesses emollient qualities.
Orchid Extract- A lightweight oil that absorbs easily, locks in moisture, smooths, and conditions skin. This natural humectant contains Magnesium, Calcium, and Zinc- one of the most important minerals found throughout the cells of the body.
Buckthorn Oil- Sea-Buckthorn Extract, also known as Siberian Pineapple, is loaded with omega fatty acids and powerful antioxidant vitamins like A, E and tons of C
To use: Apply 2 pumps of balm (that’s about 2/5 of a cubic centimeter) to damp hands and gently rub downward into a slightly damp face. The lotion will absorb into your skin very quickly leaving your face smooth and comfortable all day long. If you live in hot or cold climates, this balm will be perfect year-round.
