Make your own beard oil
A groomed beard needs little: a light carrier oil, some care oil, optionally a subtle scent. Here is the base recipe.
To the recipeAbsorbs quickly and lightly
Beard oil should keep the beard hair and the skin beneath supple without greasing. Light, fast-absorbing oils like jojoba work well, combined with a little richer argan or almond.
An essential oil adds scent but is optional and to be dosed very sparingly.

Said honestly
Essential oils belong strongly diluted and never neat on the skin. Do a patch test first. We make no effect promises , this is care, not a remedy for skin problems. Fresh oils, a clean vessel, stored cool and dark keep for a few weeks. We give you the facts, the decision stays with you.
