ARIANA EVANS / SoCal Hipster

Thank You @DaveinKY for the SoCal Hipster! It’s a fun laid back scent; the soap comes to LIFE with water, review in soaps! Had the Splash on all day prior to shaving. It’s pretty cool, a warm pineapple-y, soft amber-y musk with a splash of pepper and sandalwood? I’m not good at description but I know what I like and this is a great kit!

I don’t really like small-short handles however this CG is a little different in my hand because of the hammered shape/style/bottom. Coupled with a very hard to find Swede, this was a perfect farewell shave to a fine CG razor. With new razors coming in, a few things will need new love from a new owner. This CG Razor began its life as a highly polished Copper Razor, the patina is naturally heavy and obscure which makes it that more handsome! It was never polished after purchase, only wiped down after each use. I’ll get it on the BST this weekend

What a winning combination! I’ve been admiring this brush from the bleachers, it’s stunning! I think Alex has its twin. Haven’t seen anything this handsome (in Baby Blue) since Scott’s Randy Watson themed brush. The ergonomics must fit like a glove in the hand!

Thank you, but all of the thanks goes to Alex as he got the handle for me. He did all of the work and, kindly, gifted me the knot. He has this brush's smaller brother. 
I would have to agree with you as it is a beautiful colour and it fits so very well in hand, and, of course, it gives me something else to photograph. Smile

Your images are brilliant, I always enjoy them and your Oscars!  Happy2 No one can deny Alex’s eye for a brush, his pieces are meticulous!

Thank you for your kind words Celestino! To be fair, I would like to acknowledge Aldo of the Varlet, whose Ranger was the inspiration behind these handles. And last but not least, the credit for creating Celestino’s and my handles goes to Levi of Prometheus Handcrafts.
