Modern men are exhibiting an increased interest in plant-based body care products, along with a growing social conscience. We applaud this trend! Olivina Men, a vegetarian, cruelty-free company with its finger on the pulse of male grooming needs, has come on strong during the past couple of years. Most of their products are vegan, and all are of extremely high quality. The company claims that their inspiration comes from the tradition of the craft cocktail. We can get behind anything inspired by craft cocktails, and feel certain many guys will agree.
Head over to Olivina Men’s website, www.olivinamen.com, and take a peek at their product line. You’ll fall in love with the Bourbon Cedar Solid Cologne ($20.00). Described as a “sophisticated blend inspired by the wood-aging tradition of American distilleries”, this subtle yet powerful scent contains notes of cedar and vanilla. It blends with the wearer’s natural chemistry to create an individual effect. Hemp seed oil, sunflower seed oil, and rosemary leaf extract help to round out this vegan offering. Truly a solid winner.
If you need a powerful facial scrub, try the Charcoal Face Scrub with Volcanic Pumice ($10.00). Charcoal is a highly effective exfoliant which removes dead skin and other impurities. It’s great after shaving, since it helps to promote healthy beard growth and revitalized skin. The addition of aloe leaf juice mellows out this scrub and keeps it from being too harsh. The product is vegan and also boasts the trademark bourbon cedar scent.
A good shaving cream is a must, and Olivina Men delivers the goods with their Conditioning Shave Cream ($10.00). The caffeine and antioxidant-rich product is packed full of yerba mate, organic hemp seed oil and bisabolol. It goes on smooth and creates a rich lather. This vegan offering will leave your face feeling smooth and refreshed, free from nicks or bumps.
Olivina Men is a cruelty-free outfit, and almost all of their products are vegan. A couple of items contain honey, so be sure to check labels. The company is quite upfront about ingredients, and happy to answer questions. If you shop online, you will get free shipping on orders of $40.00 and more. The site also includes a handy store locator. They even offer a student discount, so be sure to check it out if you’re still in college. Overall, we’re delighted that we discovered Olivina Men, and hope you’ll appreciate this line as much as we do.
