DIY Beard Oil for the Hairy Hippy in Your Life

I have a lot of bearded men in my life and they all love luxurious homemade beard care products. For this month's No Shave November, I decided to make a manly gift that every bearded man can enjoy; a masculine beard and ‘stache oil to soften those scratchy hairs and moisturize the manly face. You know the ladies would prefer to kiss a man with a soft beard, not a scratchy one!

Dampen your beard before applying

It is suggested to slightly dampen your beard before applying any beard care products. Hair has an aqueous layer that can prevent proper absorption, but when dampened with water-based ingredients it can help your hair to absorb the oils better! While water will work just fine, I suggest spraying your beard with facial toner as the perfect pre-beard grooming ritual.

DIY Beard Conditioning Oil

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 oz. glass bottle with dropper
  • 1 Tbsp. hemp seed oil
  • 1/2 Tbsp. avocado oil
  • 1/2 Tbsp. apricot kernel oil
  • essential oil blend (see below)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in the glass bottle with a dropper top and label for the hairy hippy in your life!

TO USE

After dampening your beard, pour 5-8 drops (depending on the beard size) of beard oil into the palm of your hand and massage into your beard combing through with your fingers, from your face to the tip of the hair.
