Skin and Body Care Products for Smart Dads
The following is a list of "green" companies that create natural and organic skin care products specifically developed for men. Enjoy!
Aubrey Organics Men's Stock http://www.aubrey-organics.com
Men's Stock - 100% natural and without synthetic ingredients - is a pretty comprehensive line that comprises a hair care system (biotin shampoo, biotin energizing tonic, biotin hair repair, hair gel, and hair control styling spray), a shaving system (shaving cream, face scrub, after shave) and a facial skin care line (face soap, face scrub, eye cream, and moisturizer).
Bull Dog http://www.meetthebulldog.com
Bull Dog makes nothing but men's grooming products - five in all: a shave gel, an after shave balm, a face wash, a moisturizer, and a afce scrub. All that without parabens, sodium laureth sulfate, artificial colors, or synthetic fragrances. I also like the clean and simple packaging.
Burt’s Bees http://www.burtsbees.com
Burt’s Bees offers men's face and body care products, including a shaving cream, an aftershave, bar soap, body wash, and deodorant. The products are 100% natural, meaning they contain no parabens, petrochemicals, SLS, mineral oil, propylene glycol, diazolidinyl urea, imidazolidinyl urea, DMDM hydantoin, aluminum, TEA or DEA or other harsh synthetic ingredients. No preservatives either. Burt's Bees web site provides a list of ingredients for each of its products.
DaCuore Natural Products http://www.dacuorenaturalproducts.com
The company, based in Connecticut, manufactures all of its products domestically. Although not certified organic, the men's product line - shaving cream, eye cream, moisturizer, and exfoliating scrub - contains no parabens, SLS, or formaldehyde ingredients. The preservative used is phenoxyethanol.
Earthscience Naturals http://www.earthsciencenaturals.com
Earthscience Naturals makes an Azulene Moisturizing Shave Creme with soothing chamomile extract and hyaluronic acid, a natural moisture binder, an Aloe/Herbal After Shave Skin Soother, a Face&Body Skin Care Balm, and a spray for "problem skin" (such as ingrown hair and razor bumps). All products are paraben free and most are vegan (a number of products contain SLS and propylene glycol).
Every Man Jack http://www.everymanjack.com
EMJ is another one-stop shop for men, offering a full-line of hair, skin, shave, and body care products, including shampoos, soaps, moisturizers, shaving creams, as well as deodorants and lotions with SPF, and even a line for acne-prone skin. If you are traveling,you can pick up one of their kits. While not 100% natural or organic, the products are free of the worst nasties and chemicals such as parabens, formaldehyde, TEA, DEA, and the like.
Zia http://www.zianatural.com
Zia Natural's men's line is organized around skin types, offering face washes, shave gels, face lotions, and scrubs for normal/oily and normal/dry skin. All Zia products are free of parabens, formaldehyde, artificial colors, SLS, DEA, TEA, petroleum products, and synthetic fragrances and colors. The packaging is eco-friendly as well.
Weleda http://www.weleda.com
One of the pioneers of truly natural skincare, Weleda uses only natural and biodynamic ingredients in all of its products - and they are 100% free of artificial preservatives (relying on organic grain cultivated in Italy to preserve its products), SLS, mineral oils, parabens, artificial colorants, fragrances and other nasties. The men's line include a shaving cream (one of the best I have ever used), a shave toner, an after shave balm, and a moisture cream (again, one of my favorites). On its website, Weleda provides a list of ingredients for each of its products.
