Beard oil

How do you use a beard oil?

A few drops are sufficient for most beards. Put a few drops in your hand, spread it over the mustache and beard and then massage in well. First rub the oil in the direction of beard growth and then massage it against the direction. This also ensures that the oil is well distributed on the skin. Then brush your beard thoroughly with a beard brush ; This ensures that the oil is distributed more evenly. The beard oil, which you can buy in our webshop, does the rest. A beard requires care; What you put in must come out. Therefore, clean your beard after a few days with a special beard shampoo .

Why use a beard oil?

When it comes to a young beard, the beard hairs can feel hard and stiff. Beard oil makes the beard hairs comfortably softer. The beard will also look neater. The skin under the beard can also irritate and flake. Especially in the beginning of your beard, many beard wearers will notice slight skin irritation under the beard. Very irritating and annoying, because it also itches. Then you start rubbing and scratching and it only gets worse. Instead of scratching, it is much better to use an oil and massage it. The oil is absorbed by the skin, reducing irritation. Most beard care products are made from natural materials and essential oils. There are thin and thick oily beard oils. A thin oil is immediately absorbed by the beard hairs and skin. The caring effect lasts less time. A thick oil is absorbed less quickly. The effect does take a little longer. If you suffer from dry, flaky skin, you will benefit greatly from a thick oil. The choice is of course personal.

Do you have a beautiful full beard and do you suffer from a fluffy beard? Then use an oil after cleaning. The beard hairs absorb the oil, making it less frizzy and better able to keep your beard in shape.

Which beard oil should you buy?
