# Eco Bamboo Razors Bulldog Skincare's First-Ever Razor Has a Natural, Water-Resistant Bamboo Handle By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2018-06-22 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-razor References: [cosmeticsbusiness](https://www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/news/article_page/Bulldog_enters_the_razor_market_with_new_bamboo_innovation/144264) & [bulldogskincare](https://www.bulldogskincare.com/) In addition to selling a variety of [eco-friendly skincare products for men](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baz-and-co), Bulldog Skincare is now launching its first-ever razor—the Original Bamboo Razor. True to its name, the Original Bamboo Razor boasts a natural, water-resistant [bamboo handle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caboo) and a precision five-blade razor with an aloe-infused lubricating strip. The package for the Original Bamboo Razor comes with two blades, which can eventually be replaced by purchasing a separate pack of replacements. There are plenty of razor designs that pair a sturdy handle with [blade replacements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supplys-max-razor), but the unconventional handle of this razor, in particular, helps to cut down on the use of plastic and offer a lightweight alternative to metal. Bulldog Skincare's commitment to reducing packaging waste can also be seen in the use of sugarcane-based bioplastics throughout its grooming range. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 98% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Eco-friendly Skincare:** Opportunity to develop sustainable skincare products and packaging, reducing plastic waste. - **Bamboo Products:** Potential for creating a range of bamboo-based products in various industries, offering eco-friendly alternatives. - **Bioplastics:** Disruption potential in the development of biodegradable packaging materials for various industries. ### Where This Applies - **Skincare:** Opportunity for companies to create eco-friendly skincare products and packaging. - **Personal Care Products:** Opportunity for companies to develop a range of bamboo-based personal care products. - **Packaging:** Opportunity for companies to explore the use of bioplastics in packaging to reduce environmental impact. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Bamboo Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-razors.md) - [Mens Sensitive Skin Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bic-flex-5-sensitive-razor.md) - [Anti-Clogging Technology Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easyrinse-disposable.md) - [Compact Electric Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc5.md) - [Influencer-Backed Shaving Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sienna-swim.md) - [Contoured Ceramic Shavers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-shaver.md) - [Pivoting Low-Cost Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harrys-plus.md) - [Men's Safety Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supplys-max-razor.md) - [Innovative Natural Oral Care](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/best-bamboo-toothbrush-flosser.md)
