For some men, their skincare regimen is simple: wash their face with soap and water, pat dry and maybe apply a face moisturizer. Easy enough and if it works well, adding an extra step to an already simplified regimen, may be an unnecessary step if you ask them. So imagine how difficult it can be trying to school your man or brother on the benefits of switching to all-natural products when they believe in the old adage “if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it.” While that saying can be true in some instances, there are many studies and articles detailing the benefits of adopting clean beauty products into your regimen.
The best way to get them to jump on board to switch to an all-natural skin care regimen is to look for products that specifically cater to them or unisex products that have neutral scents. If you need help with swapping out the chemical-filled soap and moisturizer for a more natural alternative, here’s a simple list often-friendly brands to help you get started.
Dr. Bronner’s Pure-Castile Liquid Soap
Besides the fact that Castile soap is composed exclusively of only vegetable-based ingredients such as jojoba oil, olive oil and hemp oil, this brand’s claim to
fame is being all-in-one, holy grail, skin care product. On the bottle, you can use it to wash your face and body, brush your teeth, wash clothes and for much more. For the skin are, however, Dr. Bronner’s is able to cleanse the face without stripping the skin of its natural oils. Even better, it’s pretty inexpensive and can last a long time.
Bevel
This grooming line is not only dermatologist tested but guarantees to reduce skin irritation and razor bumps. As a line specifically catering to the skin of people of color, Bevel’s mission is to make health and beauty simple for our men and women.
John Masters Organics
This organic hair and skin-care brand always had a classic, unisex packaging that’s appealing to the eye, but what’s even better is the men’s skincare line that caters to having a simple regimen by offering 2-in1 solutions. Made with
eucalyptus and agave, The Face Wash is both a shaving foam and cleanser, while the moisturizer is also an aftershave.
Nyraju Skin Care
This natural skin care line was created specifically for African-Americans and uses powerful and natural ingredients such as green teas, rosewater, essential oils and much more. Their skin care line for men is formulated to cleanse, tone, moisturize and exfoliate with three simple steps to complete in the morning and at night. Nyraju Skin Care products claim to help minimize dark spots and uneven skin tone, revealing a more youthful appearance and even offer a 30-day money back guarantee.
Although there aren’t an abundance of men’s skin care lines as there are for women, these four natural brands boast clean and simple ingredients that will make it pretty easy to get your guy to make the switch. So, go on ahead and start placing these goods in the shower now- your man will thank you.
