Although they are definitely most well-known for their comfortable sandals, this footwear brand is branching out with their Birkenstock skincare range. The natural cosmetics speak not just to a growing desire to have simple and eco-friendly skin products, but also for men getting interested in natural skincare. Fittingly, Birkenstock skincare contain the same ingredient that made their sandals stand out -- cork oak.
Made with cork oak extract suberin, Birkenstock Cosmetics are anti-aging. 28 products comprise Birkenstock Natural Care, including cleansers, moisturizers, lip products and even shampoo. Three of the 28 specifically target male consumers. In addition to cork, the products also contain healthy ingredients such as baobab, argan oil and arctic moss. Some of the products recently debuted at the Biofach 2018 trade fair.
