Discover a more sustainable shaving experience
Love smooth skin and the planet? So do we.
At Make My Shave, we believe in creating shave care that feels good for your skin and good for the world. Our mission is simple: to elevate your everyday routine with high-quality, skin-first essentials that minimise waste, reduce plastic, and support a lighter footprint on the planet.
Sustainable Shave Days
We believe it’s time to move away from disposable razors, single-use plastic, and wasteful beauty habits. But we also know that living a truly zero-waste lifestyle isn’t always realistic. That’s why we design every Make My Shave essential around four core principles: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Restore.
Reduce — Long-lasting blades and durable designs help minimise waste and lower your environmental footprint.
Reuse — Our reusable metal razors and dermaplaners are built to last, reducing the need for single-use plastics.
Recycle — Our razor heads can be recycled through our dedicated program, and our packaging is plastic-free, kerbside recyclable or home-compostable.
Restore — From planting thousands of trees to now supporting Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, a portion of every purchase helps fund the treatment and rehabilitation of native Australian wildlife.
Together, these choices help you enjoy a more sustainable shaving routine — one that’s kinder to your skin and the world around you.
Sustainable Packaging
We're over plastic packaging — and we know you are too.
That’s why every element of our packaging has been carefully designed to be as kind to the planet as possible.
It took months of planning, testing, and refining to create solutions that are recyclable, home-compostable, and low-impact. Our kraft razor holders are proudly made here in Australia, our eco-friendly stickers and soy-based inks come from NoIssue, and our compostable mailers are supplied by Hero Packaging. Even our address labels are made from FSC-approved recycled materials.
You also won’t find unnecessary flyers or excess paper inside your order. Just thoughtful, planet-friendly packaging that protects your products without contributing to unnecessary waste
Proudly Supporting Currumbin Wildlife Hospital
As a small Australian business, we believe in “shaving the way to a better world.” That’s why we proudly support Currumbin Wildlife Hospital — one of Australia’s busiest and most respected wildlife hospitals. A portion of proceeds from every purchase helps fund the treatment and rehabilitation of native wildlife, including koalas, kangaroos, birds, reptiles, and marine animals.
Operated by the National Trust of Australia (Queensland), Currumbin Wildlife Hospital treats more than 16,000 injured, sick, and orphaned animals each year. Their work goes beyond emergency care, leading vital conservation programs and supporting the long-term survival of vulnerable species.
After meeting the team and seeing their incredible work firsthand, Mike and I knew this was the right partnership for us — and for our community.
Smooth Skin, Green Fingers
Through the support of our incredible customers, Make My Shave has proudly contributed to reforestation efforts across Australia. From planting thousands of trees with organisations like House of 10,000 Petals Regeneration Trust and One Tree Planted, we’ve always believed in giving back to the environments that make our country so unique.
Reforestation plays a vital role in restoring damaged ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and helping rebuild natural habitats for endangered wildlife — including our beloved koalas. These projects remain an important part of our story and reflect our long-standing commitment to regeneration and environmental care.
Today, as our mission continues to evolve, we’re extending that impact even further through our partnership with Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, helping fund the treatment and rehabilitation of native Australian wildlife.
Together, these initiatives reflect our promise: to create products that feel good on your skin — and do good for the world around you.

The Only Razor 100% Certified by Vegan Australia
Many brands claim to be vegan — but without proper certification, animal-derived ingredients can still be hidden in lubrication cushions, coatings, or manufacturing processes.
Make My Shave is different.
We partnered directly with Vegan Australia to ensure our unique moisture cushion formula meets their strict standards, giving you an officially certified vegan razor you can trust. No hidden animal byproducts, no animal testing anywhere in our supply chain, and no unverified “vegan-friendly” claims — just a transparent commitment to kinder shave care.
You’ll find Make My Shave proudly listed on the Vegan Australia website.
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.
