Ideal Bite

Looking sharp?

The Bite:

Not with that five o'clock facial fuzz, you're not. To kick off Boys Week (where we'll spotlight the best new eco products for guys), try reusable razors and shaving cream made with recycled and natural ingredients, since disposable razor waste and chem-laden creams skeeve us out even more than the greasiest soul patch.

The Benefits:

Avoiding planetary nicks and cuts. Two billion disposable razors end up in U.S. landfills each year.
Healthier boy Biters. Your quest for baby-smooth skin doesn't require chemical warfare - conventional creams contain hairy ingredients like parabens.
A clean shave. You'll get just as close a shave with the eco options, plus maybe a warm fuzzy.

Personally Speaking:

Guys who can shave with a straight razor and the brush-and-lather trick are, well, hot.

Wanna Try:

Art of Shaving Straight Razor - stainless-steel beaut that does the job the old-fashioned way (and comes with instructions - $150).
Preserve Razor - refillable, unisex razor made using recycled yogurt cups. Also: a triple-blade version ($8).
Jack Black Supreme Cream - its soy and macadamia nut oil make for the best cream the Biter boys ever tried. Tenacious D album not included ($12).
Simmons Shaving Soap - simple, solid, aloe vera formula that requires less packaging - plus the price is right ($3).
Vegan Shaving Brush - for Biters not into the typical badger's hair brushes ($6).

Cocktail Fact

According to a report in the American Journal of Epidemiology, men who don't shave have less sex and are 70% more likely to have a stroke than daily shavers.

Bang For The Bite

If 10,000 Biters opt for a recycled razor rather than a disposable one, we'll avert the weight of three barber's chairs in new plastic.
