5 natural grooming brands we’re loving for Earth Day

Natural grooming products are better for the environment and your skin — check out our favorite brands.

Earth Day is almost here as we have been cruising through Earth Month. Hopefully, by now, you're using better-quality men's grooming products. If not, let Earth Day be the opportunity to switch to cleaner ingredients that are free of parabens, phthalates, and other harmful chemicals. However, finding natural grooming products that are both effective and eco-friendly can be a challenge.

You can trust these brands to use only the best natural ingredients to help you achieve your great look without harming the environment.
