Our Green Gifting Guide For Men

What do you get the man who might not have everything, but feels like he’s seen it all before? Grooming products, fragrances and skincare are all high on the list. But how can you break the mould? Especially this Christmas, when normal has been redefined…

You see, this year we’ve all had much more time to contemplate our place in the world. And we all know the best sort of presents are more than a well-wrapped parcel. They’re the gift of kindness: not only to each other, but the planet too. 

So this Christmas, why not treat the planet with just as much love and appreciation as we treat our loved ones? Don’t worry if you need a little inspiration either, as we’ve created our ultimate green gifting guide. Consider it your sustainable, quality hitlist for taking care of any man in your life. 

Why green gifting?

2020 has opened our eyes. And we’ve become increasingly aware of the impact our choices are having on the environment. The Christmas season only highlights this further as many of us look to change our consumer habits and shop consciously.

But protecting the environment - like stringing Christmas lights along your walls - isn't a one-man job. Far from it. Both consumers and brands need to take action together. Only then can we switch on successfully. But where do we start? 

It’s simple. Just take a look at the beauty, haircare and skincare products you would normally give to that special man in your life, and exchange them for green alternatives. It’s easy to do, and easy to find. So there’s no stopping you from going green this season.
