Bread and Butter is offering skincare subscriptions for men, or more exactly, subscriptions to their men's skincare products. The specially formulated products do not contain fragrance or grain alcohols and they're customized for the winter and summer season.
The Canadian company ships its face-friendly products directly to the customer, which eliminates the need for shopping. The products meet airline regulations for carry-on luggage, and Toronto customers can recycle their used containers through Bread and Butter.
Implications - The company has an interesting backstory. Following years of building other brands in the sometimes seedy world consumer packaged goods, Brian Lau decided to head out on his own to take a stand against the loose morals in the industry.
It's a tough gig, but it takes a large man to stand up against an entire industry.
