Manscaping, body grooming, male grooming or just personal care. Whatever you call it, looking after your personal care and hygiene is a daily ritual that everyone does. It is also very big business with a mass of products on the market, from washing to shaving and lotions to potions.
Part of your grooming ritual might involve shaving and the best way to get a close shave is still the traditional wet shave. Whilst a dry shave might save you some time, a wet shave generally gives you a smoother and closer shave with less irritation. Most people just rub shaving gel or foam onto their face to get a nice lather before shaving, but have you ever thought about a shaving brush? A good shaving brush lets you create a superb lather on your face, massaging the skin to vastly reduce irritation and prepping your skin perfectly before shaving – softening and elevating facial hair for a much nicer and smoother shave.
Clear Confidence are a vegan and eco-friendly personal care company. Within their range, they feature a 100% vegan shaving brush that uses only eco-friendly materials! A shaving brush with 100% plastic-free construction and uses grass-based bristles (rather than the more common badger or boar hair).
The Clear Confidence Plastic-Free Shaving Brush is completely plastic-free, vegan friendly and cruelty free featuring a wooden handle and grass-based (sisal) bristles. The brush massages the skin gently, whilst gently lathering your skin, exfoliating and enhancing blood flow. This reduces the chances of irritation, redness and razor burn.

Overall, I have really enjoyed using the Clear Confidence shaving brush. The grass-based bristles have a slightly rough feel to them, are quite firm and do an excellent job of lathering my face and gently exfoliating my skin as well, reducing blade friction and decreasing the risk of ingrowing hairs.
With its eco-friendly credentials the Clear Confidence plastic-free shaving brush is perfect for eco-conscious people and those that are living a greener lifestyle. And it works extremely well. It also feels very good quality and that it will last a long time.
Is it any better than just lathering foam onto your face with your fingers? Definitely yes. The gentle massaging action ensures that the facial hair is lifted and softened, making shaving a much more pleasant job, resulting in a smooth shave without as much skin irritation or redness.
The plastic-free construction is much better for the environment by getting rid of plastic waste and using eco-friendly sustainable bristles. And is supplied is a recyclable cardboard box.
As for cleaning and looking after it, it is simple and very low maintenance. Just give it a quick rinse and store it with the bristles facing down. The bristles are less absorbent than animal hair versions so dry a lot quicker.
The Clear Confidence plastic-free shaving brush is perfect and would make an excellent gift for anyone that likes to wet shave. It looks and feels luxurious, is well-constructed and feels like it will last a long time (it comes with a 1-year durability guarantee). The bristles feel good against the skin whilst at the same time being firm enough to create a good lather and raise the hair for shaving.
