Our Charity Partners

A business is nothing if it can't use some of its resources for charity.  But true charity should be done without seeking anything in return (not even recognition). Businesses that make a big deal about how much they give away are using charity for marketing purposes, rather than just to be good people.

Our most significant good deeds involve sharing our love, time & knowledge to help others and will never be discussed beyond that. However for those that are interested to see some of the causes we like to support, here's a list we recently started compiling. If you need sponsorship for your own fund raising efforts, hit us up using our contact form.

We primarily support registered charities & non-dodgy crowd-funded campaigns that are focused on men's health, non-political environmental charities, suicide prevention, cancer research & prevention, support for victims of domestic violence & child welfare.

Long lasting protection

I wasn't sure of what to expect, oh my word...
Better than what I was expecting that's for sure.
This stuff is amazing 👏

Good

I found the King of Wood balm in a shop in Perth in November 2019, brought it home to the UK and ...

Fantastic products, they do exactly what they say they will do they smell great at the same time. 5 out of 5.

Awesome product

The beared oil has helped my dry skin dramatically and the beard shampoo is a game changer. Love it!

Whiskey and dry shower wash

I’m not sure who thought this would be a good combo, drink wise, yes. But for me and my missus the scent is off..can’t say I’d buy this one again. It’s a misshit for me.

Body Wash for Men (3 in 1)

A good shave oil

I use a shavette/cutthroat; this is the only product that doesn't cause skin irritation. A little bit goes a long way, so the bottle lasts me several months.

Love It

Have been using Milkmans for years. Love the beard balm, unfortunately some of the fragrances give me headaches! Fortunately this one is amazing! Sandalorian for the win.

3 pack deodorant

Love this stuff, first purchase was the king of wood, now the 3 pack.
Each one has a great fragrance and long lasting smell. No staining of clothes which is an issue I had with other stick deodorants. Highly recommended

Natural deodorants

Love these deodorant’s all work extremely well .
However the green one I have found not so good very clumpy & claggy and with in an hr or so wasn’t as good as all the others 🥲.

The Red & Blue are by far my favourites and work extremely well still smell fresh at the end of the day 😊

Just got the body wash now that is on a whole new experience , talk about being squeaky clean and smell SO Good ( rum&cola) 😊

I Like Your Old Stuff Better Than Your New Stuff

Hi. I have been buying your King Of Wood Beard Balm for a few years now. I love the way it feels, smells and the job it does. As of recent I went to buy it from one of your retailers in Brisbane and didn’t take too much notice till I got home. The tiny little label stating it was a new formula. As I opened it and went to use it the first thing I noticed was how grainy/gritty it was and did not feel or dissolve as well as the original formula. So I looked at the ingredients and was not impressed as it seem to be missing a couple of quality natural ingredients and had added fillers that I thought were not necessary unless you were trying to maximize profit over what I consider your “ ethos “ of making great quality natural products. Not sure this particular product you produce is a step in the right direction anymore. I would love to find your old stock if you know of any retailers still selling in Brisbane.

Hi Karl, thanks for your review. We did change the formula so that it is now 100% vegan which actually requires more expensive quality botanicals to replace the beeswax but we've kept the price the same. We never use fillers, every ingredient has an important purpose. Unfortunately we did have a production issue that meant a very small number of units in a batch last year were'nt mixed properly unbeknown to us but it quickly came to our attention and has been fixed now. We'll send you a replacement and you'll find it is pretty much identical to the original now except slightly easier to dissolve in the hands.

Best effectiveness I’ve tried

Been buying this for hubby and son. So effective, despite outdoor work in Queensland summer…so I bought some for myself and my daughter to get us through the hot summer too. Our usual one was just not as effective as Milkman’s. The original formula is acceptable for a feminine smell. Would love some more feminine lines - just different scents if you could please!!!

Milkman Beard oil is a game changer. You won't be disappointed.

The scents are straight vibing yo, subtle but deep. Except the bay one, that punches your sinus w...

Needs a comprehensive pack of all your scents. I understand from a marketing standpoint the need to split them up, but it sure would be handy. Also there may have been a fault in the packing of my king of wood stick as the deodorant was fully stuck to the protective cap and broke off when i tried to remove it.
