Discover a more sustainable shaving experience
Love smooth skin and the planet? So do we!
At Make My Shave, we believe in smoother, kinder shave care. We also know that life gets busy, so we exist to transform an everyday routine into a moment of luxurious self-care — all while being kinder to the planet.
Sustainable Shave Days
We believe it's time to ditch disposable razors, plastic, and wheat straw dermaplaners. But we understand that achieving a 100% waste-free lifestyle isn't always easy — or possible. That's why our collection of sustainable razors embodies the core principles of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Regenerate, giving you a chance to shave your way towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
🪒 Reduce — Our high-quality razor blades are long-lasting, reducing waste and minimising your environmental footprint.
💚 Reuse — Our reusable razor and metal dermaplaners are made from ultra-durable materials that last and last.
♻️ Recycle — Say goodbye to landfill-bound razor heads. We offer a simple recycling solution. Our packaging is plastic-free and recyclable.
🌱 Regenerate — We're not just about reducing waste; we're into regenerating too. 5% of subscription profits go directly to Australian reforestation projects.
Sustainable Packaging
We're SO over plastic packaging, and we know you are too. When it came to designing eco-friendly packaging for Make My Shave products, we didn't hold back. It's taken months (and months) of planning and prototyping to find packaging solutions that are recyclable, home compostable and keep our carbon footprint low. 🌱 And guess what? Our kraft razor holders are proudly made right here in Australia.
We use eco-friendly stickers and soy-based ink from NoIssue and our compostable mailers are from Hero Packaging. Even our address labels are made from FSC-approved recycled materials.
Plus, you won't find unnecessary flyers or leaflets cluttering up our packs. Just pure, planet-friendly goodness all around.
The Sustainable Razor for Women
Australia boasts some of the world's most stunning ecosystems, but the effects of human activity and climate change have taken their toll. That's why reforestation efforts right in our backyard are absolutely essential.
When you upgrade your shaving routine to Make My Shave, you're not just getting smoother skin – you're also supporting projects that help protect invaluable environments. Our reforestation projects aid in creating homes for endangered creatures like our beloved koalas. 🐨
To make a real difference, we commit 5% of profits from every sustainable shaving subscription towards reforestation initiatives right here in Australia. We have partnerships with House of 10,000 Petals Regeneration Trust and One Tree Planted.
Together, let's shave our way to a better world, one tree at a time! 🌏
Smooth legs, green fingers
When it comes to reforestation projects, we're not just about donating profits.
We also put our boots on the ground to help physically plant the seedlings that our customers help purchase.
And because sharing is caring, we always welcome our Community to come along and plant with us.
Our next event will take place in spring/summer. We'll keep you posted on details.

Through our donations, we've planted over 1,600 trees in Australia so far!
No Green or Pink Tax!
Make My Shave is an Australian body care brand championing a more inclusive and eco-friendly shaving solution for women.
Our glamorous, reusable razor handle is designed to make your shaving experience kinder to curves and the planet – no more disposables razors!
When you choose Make My Shave, you're not just getting a premium women's razor; you're supporting reforestation and getting access to our razor head recycling program, free carbon offset delivery, and packaging that's recyclable and stylish.
Plus, here's where our sustainable shaving subscription becomes a no-brainer: we believe in fair pricing, so our community doesn't pay extra for a greener, more enjoyable shave. (No green or pink tax here!) 💚
Razor Blade Recycling Program
Here at Make My Shave, we're on a mission to make recycling your razor heads a breeze. It's simple: just purchase our pink mailer and fill it with up to 24 used razor heads. The mailer comes with prepaid postage, so all you need to do is drop it in the nearest post box.
Once your blades are returned to us, they’re put in our Zero Waste Box™ then shipped to TerraCycle® Australia. Everything collected through the Zero Waste Box™ system is sorted and processed into raw materials that can be reused instead of being sent to landfill.
So, when you recycle your razor blades with us, you're not just reducing plastic waste – you're contributing to a more sustainable, circular economy. It's a small step for you, but a giant leap for our planet.
FREE Carbon Offset Delivery, Always
We believe that every aspect of your shaving experience should be as planet-friendly as it is skin-friendly.
We use a mix of dedicated delivery services as well as harnessing the power of existing postal methods to further reduce our carbon footprint for subscription customers. With traditional postal services, there's no need for dedicated or express trips, making our shipping process even greener.
And that's not all. We're serious about our commitment to carbon neutrality. To ensure we're doing our part to combat climate change, we purchase carbon credits that offset our delivery footprint across Australia for every subscription.
We're the only razor certifed by Vegan Australia!
Did you know that not all razors claiming to be vegan-friendly are officially certified?
Many brands claim to be vegan, but without proper certification, animal byproducts may still be used in their lubrication strips.
That's why Make My Shave is the real deal — We're the only razor to hold the Vegan Australia Certification.
