Bulldog Products - Natural, Cruelty-free!

Reviewing Bulldog products 
Angela from meetthebulldog.com was kind enough to send me some Bulldog products, for me to test out on my boyfriend. Bulldog’s male grooming products only use natural ingredients and a small number of low risk synthetics, their packaging is recyclable and best of all they don’t test on animals!

And by “some”, I think she’s sent me one of everything! There was Shave Gel, After Shave Balm, Moisturiser, Face Scrub, Face Wash, and Shower Gel.  I loved the little Bulldogs on the wrapping paper! So let’s dive in.
Luke, what did you think about the products at first glance? “Nicely presented, quite plain, I think that gave them credibility. They didn’t try and use gimmicks to make them seem manly and patronise me.”
You tried the shaving things first. What did you think of them? “It’s good that it’s not in an aerosol can, better for the environment. Smelled delicious and clean. Worked as good as the usual shaving products I use, and the after balm was lovely and smooth.”

You used the face wash every day, and the scrub twice a week. Did you like them and feel a difference to your skin? “Yeah! Both were nice and gentle on the skin, and again had that nice clean scent. They seemed to improve the appearance of my skin.”
What about the moisturiser? You love moisturisers usually, did this one meet your expectations? “Yes! That was probably the best of all the products. It wasn’t too sticky or greasy, and wasn’t strongly perfumed on the skin. It was really nice, my skin was really soft.”
And finally the shower gel? “This was good. Lathered up nicely, and again smelled really good!”
Anything else to add? “I think I would like to buy these again, they had nice little quotes on the back like ‘How can your face your problem if your problem is your face?’ which I found amusing, and the main thing is they worked well!”
Even though they are marketed for men, I think these products can be used by everyone, as the smell wasn’t the typical “manly” smell that all male products seem to share. I tried the face scrub, and my skin is really sensitive but didn’t freak out at all! The scent is quite sweet, but as I say it’s pretty gender neutral, so I think this a product you can share, which is ideal for smaller bathrooms and people who don’t like clutter. I really liked these products, and Luke really liked them, so it’s a win-win! The prices are very decent too! They can be purchased online, or in the toiletries isle of larger supermarkets.
