NYR MEN - Neal's Yard Remedies Grooming Products For Men
NYR MEN
(Neal's Yard Remedies For Men)
Check out 'Neal's Yard Remedies’ new NYR MEN range. The range encompasses the full spectrum of
male grooming products, offering a choice of products to suit all
requirements – be it shave care, anti-ageing or your ‘basic’ day-to-day
maintenance. True to the famed NYR philosophy, each product in the range
has been individually formulated with a combination of herbs and
essential oils, selected specifically for their action on the skin.
There is a pleasant signature fragrance that runs throughout the range –
a blend of pure essential oils including bergamot, basil and coriander,
to give a fresh scent. They also look great in any bathroom.
Made in England
They design, test and manufacture all their own products at their
eco-headquarters in Dorset, England. It's also home to their own team of
experts, who create their award-winning products in state-of-the-art
labs.
Grow your own
They do. They know the origins of all their herbs and ingredients. They grow
as many as they can in their gardens in Peacemarsh, Dorset and at
Sheepdrove Organic Farm on the Lambourn Downs in Berkshire.
Greener by design
Their eco-factory uses solar panels on the roof, clay flooring and
high-level windows to keep cool, and uses rainwater to flush the loos! They even compost the kitchen waste, which is mostly organic, of course!
