Living on the Razor's Edge!

As a man in an industry where the Grizzly Adams beard is commonplace, but with a wife who expects a silky smooth cheek if I expect any kissin', shaving has become a daily part of my routine.

Last night, as I stood facing myself in the mirror, I began to wonder what exactly I was shmearing all over my face and then washing down the drain into our water system.

Here's a short list straight off the back of the can:

Palmitic Acid, Triethanolamine, Oleth-20, Isopentane, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ubiquinone, PEG-90 Glyceryl Isostearate, and Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose.

Now, I am admittedly a few credits short of my Chemistry degree, but I'm just going to assume that the organs responsible for my intake of sight, smell, and taste probably should not receive a daily Chernobyling.

So, what is my course of reaction? I am going ambling off into the sunset with Organic Grooming by Herban Cowboy.

Organic Grooming offers certified organic personal care products. "Eric," You ask, "how do I know they are really organic and not just Greenwashing?" Well, you can view their State of Pennsylvania Certification on their website http://www.organic-grooming.com/. How's that for proof!?!

And not only do they offer soaps in unscented as well as two great scented options, smooth shaving creams, and aluminum, dye, and alcohol free deodorant , they also lay claim to the first Organic Cologne. It goes by the generally timely name: Dusk.

Still need more? How about all of their products being Vegan friendly, and almost all of their packaging is recyclable/biodegradable, and printed with soy ink!

Ahhh....nothing smells quite as good as the fresh scent of positive change in the morning!
