We are listening.
In 2018 the CDC estimates that 1 in 59 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. As a spectrum, individuals diagnosed with ASD can have a range of difficulties, from hypersensitivity to sounds or smell that can make life in public challenging, to self-injuring behavior or seizures.
Autism typically appears within the first three years of life, and early diagnosis and intervention through therapy such as ABA (applied behavioral analysis) are one of the most proven ways to help prepare children and their families for life with Autism. Not a cure, but specialized learning to improve communication, development, coping, and social interactions.
As a parent, one of the greatest challenges is access to care. Often the most effective therapies are expensive, with limited coverage by insurance. There is no harder scenario as a parent than to know resources exist to help your child's quality of life but to not be able to afford them.
This soap was the first of our line dedicated to supporting families with Autism. Naid, meaning zero, represents the start of our journey. Now, every purchase on Murphy and McNeil shaving products supports a charity in some form, and please look to our "Causes We Support" page to see the latest.

Using shaving soap instead of shaving cream from an aerosol can offers several environmental benefits:
Reduced Waste: Shaving soap typically comes in minimal or more sustainable packaging, often in paper or a reusable container, reducing plastic waste. In contrast, aerosol cans are more challenging to recycle and contribute to more waste.
Packaged in a reusable container, or delivered unpackaged, this product saves about .04 kg of metal and some plastic entering the waste stream.
Lower Environmental Impact in Production: The production of aerosol cans is energy-intensive and often involves the use of metals and chemicals. Shaving soap usually has a simpler manufacturing process with a lower carbon footprint.
Chemical Concerns: Aerosol cans can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other chemicals that contribute to air pollution and are potentially harmful to the environment. Shaving soap is often made with natural ingredients and fewer chemicals.
Longevity and Efficiency: Shaving soaps tend to last longer than aerosol creams, which means less frequent purchasing and lower overall consumption. This efficiency reduces the environmental impact over time.
Biodegradability: Many shaving soaps are made from natural, biodegradable ingredients that are less harmful to the environment when washed down the drain, unlike some of the synthetic chemicals found in aerosol creams.
By choosing shaving soap, individuals can reduce their environmental footprint, contributing to less waste, lower pollution, and more sustainable consumption.
