If you’ve been looking for high-end skincare products, you’ll be hard-pressed to find even a handful of good options.
And, by high-end, I don’t mean products that claim to be fancy and cost you a small fortune, but products engineered specifically for men’s skin that perform well.
This perfectly encapsulates the philosophy of Brickell’ s—bringing you the highest quality skincare products crafted from all-natural ingredients free from synthetic chemicals. Products which will hydrate your skin and give you a clearer complexion.

How does Brickell work?
Why is switching to all-natural skincare products better?
When you cheap out on skincare, what you’re buying is more than likely riddled with toxic chemicals that damage your skin. Premium products help you get healthy and clear skin. As the adage goes, “you get what you pay for.”
One caveat though. This brand doesn’t offer subscription services, but when you do run out, you can place another order in a few clicks.
As of now, their selection includes skincare, body care, hair care, grooming, and shaving products. You can pick products you favor and add them to your beauty regimen. Before you do, though, head over to their website and sign up for their free grooming sample kit.
You get to experience their premium products free of charge, and you don’t have to commit to making any purchases in the future. Win-win.
The free sample kit includes a plethora of grooming products from several categories. The 17 products have a net retail value of $65, and you choose between scented and unscented variants.
If you like any of the products, you can schedule it to be delivered to you automatically after a designated period. While not a subscription service in the traditional sense, you can still “set it and forget it.” Whichever product you choose, say their shaving gel, you won’t have to go back to the site to place the order over and over again.
Types of products available
Here’s a short rundown of some of the best-sellers you get with your free sample kit.
We’ll start with the shaving products. First up on the list is their Premium Brushless Shaving Cream. This all-natural shaving cream works in tandem with your razor to give you the closest shave possible.
It helps prepare your follicles, and softens and raises your facial hair slightly, which means not only a closer shave but also fewer razor bumps.
The Aloe Vera soothes your skin, and its other natural ingredients hydrate it. The Jojoba provides you a comfortable shave free of nicks and inflammation. The peppermint, Eucalyptus, and lemongrass give off an irresistibly fresh scent.
Next on the list, we have the Instant Relief Men’s Aftershave. Gentlemen who’ve been shaving for a long time are familiar with how a little redness, a bit of irritation, or a few razor bumps here and there inevitable.
This is where this aftershave lotion comes in handy. Its natural ingredients soothe your skin, relieve the redness, and help with razor bumps—but almost any aftershave could do that. What’s different here is the choice of ingredients.
The recipe is alcohol and chemical-free, so it’s perfect for any skin type. Be it oily, tough, dry, or sensitive. The Aloe Vera and coconut replenish and moisturize your skin, and it has a similar fragrance to the shaving cream mentioned above.
The Renewing Face Scrub is excellent for tough skin. It can deeply exfoliate, as well as remove dirt, oil and dead skin cells. Allowing you to get a closer, smoother shave.
Not only can it be used as a pre-shave, but it clears out your pores, cleans impurities, and moisturizes to give you a clearer, brighter complexion and a softer skin.
All these three products come in both scented and unscented options so that you can pick one according to your preference.
Like I mentioned above, you can automate the delivery of these products, and have them delivered to you in the mail every month, every quarter, or twice a year.
Also worth mentioning is their line of Skincare Essentials, which includes, perhaps their most popular product – the Purifying Charcoal Face Wash, among many, many others. There’s also the Charcoal Face Mask, the Moisturizer, Balancing Toner, and Clarifying Facewash.
This whole line up is the part of their free sample kit, and since it won’t cost you a dime, there’s absolutely no reason as to why you shouldn’t at least give this high-end line of products a try.
Pricing
As I’ve said before, the sample kit won’t cost you anything. You get 17 sample products free of charge.
As for the products I mentioned, the shaving cream is a bit pricey (but then again, all these products are), at $24 a pop. You can get the aftershave bottle for $25, and the scrub for $22.
Company history
Brickell was founded in 2014, by two high school friends Josh Meyer and Matt Bolduc after a failed startup venture into the world of software.
One of the co-founders found it next to impossible to find decent high-end skin products and made a small investment in developing a line of hand-crafted skincare products. Products that only contained natural ingredients, free from any harmful chemicals.
In 2018 alone, their company had made $15 million without securing investments from any outsiders.
