Organic Skin Care for Men

Do you use organic skin care products? Latest figures show around 70% of the male population now use some form of male grooming products and with growing concern over the health of the planet and global warming, there is a marked increase in the purchase of natural skin care products. Some companies are now producing a whole range of organic natural skin care products which are designed to be eco friendly and this means that their products are not only totally organic and natural, but that extra care has been taken when sourcing the ingredients, such as what effect moving one ingredient from one country to another will have on the planet. They also look at who has grown the product and try and use fair trading whenver possible. In addition their packaging is totally bio-degradable, so they as companies are looking at the fuller picture and what effect their products will have not just on our bodies, but on future generations and the planet.


Ancient Times - Natural Organic Treatments

Natural skin care was recognised centuries ago although it was not embraced by men. Natural organic treatments existed, as in ancient Egypt Cleopatra was said to have regularly bathed in sour milk and the Elizabethans used oatmeal wrapped in hessian as a form of natural organic body scrub. Natural clay was also regularly used as a face mask to draw out the impurities from the skin and help get rid of dead cells. Apothecaries also made use of natural plant extracts and oils to soothe and soften the skin.

Over the past century the beauty industry has grown to massive proportions but unfortunately due to excessive supply and demand, manufacturers have cut corners and harmful chemicals such as parabens,sulphates and petrochemicals are contained in the fancy bottles on the shelves and these can cause skin and eye irritations. Certain studies suggest they can also cause asthma and cancer in severe cases. However, with the growing awareness of chemical pollution and climate changes, manufacturers are increasingly marketing organic natural skin care products for both men and women.

Organic Natural Skin Care Products For Men

All natural skin care products

Not so many years ago it would have been unheard of for men to be using a variety of male grooming products and to be enjoying natural organic treatments but thanks to a vast amount of advertising, incorporating male celebrities such as David Beckham, to endorse male grooming, there has been a phenomenal growth in the male grooming industry, as men of all ages strive to look and feel good about themselves.



The modern man in particular is seeking out natural organic skin care products partly because he is more aware of the potential side effects of regular grooming products and also because he feels he wants to take his health and that of the planet far more seriously.

What are the benefits to men of using natural organic skin care products
  1. Over 87% of what we rub on our skins enters our bodies and so it makes sense to use natural organic skin care products that are guaranteed not to contain any residual chemicals
  2. Mens organic skin care products work well with their hair and skin. They are gentle and soothing yet work equally as well as their chemical filled counterparts.
  3. The soothing and healing powers of the natural herbs and essences contained in mens organic grooming products are ideal for skin that is sore and irritated from shaving, or even problem skin that is prone to acne.
  4. The often sensuous smells of organic natural products linger on the skin and stimulate the senses.
