Men’s Grooming: Simple Switches For Healthier Skin & Hair
Often, men aren’t adventurous in their skincare and grooming habits: some shower gel and shaving cream, and maybe a dab of moisturiser if your skin is particularly red and rough. However, a few more thoughtful product choices can make a huge difference to the appearance of your skin and hair, as well as your overall health and wellbeing.
Here’s a look at how to make some small, simple swaps to men's organic skincare products for more comfortable skin and healthier hair, as well as being a more sustainable and eco-friendly choice.
Body wash for an invigorating cleanse
Many high-street body washes are packed with harsh detergents, synthetic fragrances, and foaming agents that can strip the skin’s natural oils. This often leaves skin dry, tight, or irritated. A natural body wash, by contrast, uses plant-based cleansers and essential oils.
If you have sensitive skin, natural formulas are often free from sulphates and artificial fragrances, helping to reduce irritation and keeping you feeling comfortable. Look for organic men’s body wash with eucalyptus for an invigorating, refreshing feel.
Some products are even suitable for washing your hair as well, saving you space if you’re a frequent traveller or just don’t like a lot of clutter in your bathroom.
Shaving products without the burn
Shaving can be tough on skin, especially if you’re prone to razor burn or ingrown hairs. Many shaving foams contain alcohol or synthetic foaming agents that dry and inflame the skin.
Natural shaving creams and oils use nourishing bases like coconut, olive, or jojoba oils. These help soften the beard and provide a smooth glide for the razor. Follow up with a natural moisturiser containing soothing botanicals such as chamomile or aloe vera to calm the skin.
Beard care for natural conditioning
If you’re cultivating facial hair, beard care is just as important as skin or scalp care. Coarse or dehydrated beards can quickly look unkempt and feel uncomfortable. A natural conditioning and softening beard oil is the simplest way to keep it under control.
Look for unfragranced blends containing argan and golden jojoba oil to soften and repair coarse, dry beards and add shine and softeness. Our organic products can even double up as a facial moisturiser, and be applied to the scalp for extra nourishment.
Because it’s deliberately left unscented, it suits everyone and won’t clash with any colognes or fragrances you like to wear. Free from petroleum, paraffin, and silicones, it delivers pure and natural conditioning power.
Moisturiser for everyday hydration
Many men don’t bother with moisturiser, assuming that it’s not necessary or are just unsure how or when to use it. Although men' s skin is thicker and oilier than women’s skin, it still requires regular hydration to keep it in good condition, especially after showering or shaving.
Conventional moisturisers often contain parabens and synthetic fragrances, which can clog pores or trigger reactions. Natural alternatives, however, use plant oils (such as argan or jojoba) that mimic the skin’s natural barrier. They absorb quickly, don’t leave a greasy film, and help protect against environmental stressors such as pollution and weather changes.
Hair care for regular cleansing and scalp health
Men often wash their hair daily, especially if they’re active or commute in busy cities. Standard shampoos can be overly harsh, leading to dryness, flaking, or even hair thinning. Organic shampoos and conditioners avoid sulphates (the ingredients responsible for that overly foamy lather) and instead use gentler cleansers.
Natural oils such as argan, avocado, or jojoba nourish the scalp and strengthen hair. For styling, natural waxes and gels provide hold without the stickiness or chemical build-up.
Lip care: not just for girls
Lip care definitely isn’t just for the ladies. Dry, cracked lips are uncomfortable and make you look less well groomed. Many standard lip balms contain petroleum-based ingredients, which sit on the surface rather than nourishing the skin. A natural lip balm with shea butter, cocoa butter, or beeswax protects and repairs without artificial additives.
Small changes for a big difference
Many men think a proper “skincare routine” is not for them or unnecessary, but it’s actually an act of basic self-care that can help you feel more polished and confident. If you use products with 100 per cent natural organic ingredients, you’ll soon notice the difference, and also be helping the planet.
