Cruelty-Free Brands For Men

Shopping cruelty-free is not just for women! Men need skincare, hair care, body care, deodorant, shaving products, vitamins and essential oils too. Fortunately, there are 100% cruelty-free options for both men and women. On my blog, I usually tailor to female consumers, but I want to make it known that there are options for men too. Below is an all-inclusive list of 100% cruelty-free brands that men can support. If you either have men in your life, are a man, or want to shop for men’s gifts , this list is for you!

All brands listed below are 100% cruelty-free, including their parent companies.

Brands that are not 100% cruelty-Free

In order for a brand to be 100% cruelty-free, it cannot be owned by a parent company that tests on animals. Whenever a product is purchased, the parent company gets some of that profit, and you are technically supporting whatever practices the parent company chooses to allocate your dollars to. With SO many 100% cruelty-free brands available today and companies’ understanding of how important it is to be cruelty-free, there’s no need to support ANY BRAND that fully isn’t.

Below is a list of brands for men that are cruelty-free but they have been acquired by non-cruelty-free parent company Edgewell Personal Care.

• Jack Black

• Harry’s (soon to be acquired)

• Personna

• Bulldog

You can read more on Edgewell’s animal testing policy *here* where they explain how the brand performs animal testing on products where required by law.

Other brands for men that are not 100% cruelty-free:

The brands below are not cruelty-free because they either test on animals on their own or where required by law.

• Gillette

• Schick

• Edge

• Redken

• Philips

• Braun

• Remington

• Dove for Men (Read more on their PETA cert and why it is VERY misleading)

• Axe

• Bic

• Degree

• Equate

• Gold Bond

• Just for Men

• Nivea

• Old Spice

• Oster

• Panasonic

• Speed Stick

• Suave

• Cremo – They are cruelty-free but cannot verify that their ingredient suppliers don’t test on animals.

With the list of 100% cruelty-free brands for men above, you can find literally any personal care product a man needs. It’s truly amazing that anyone can shop 100% cruelty-free, especially because some of the brands are so easily accessible. Next time you shop, you may be surprised how many brands on the cruelty-free list you find in your local department or drugstore.
