How to use it
Last step of your routine, on a dry or towel-dried beard.
Scrape and warm
Run your thumbnail across the balm for a pea-sized amount and rub it between your palms until soft.
Work it through
Spread it through your beard from roots to tips, so every hair gets an even coat.
Comb into shape
Use a comb or brush to set the style. The beeswax holds it in place until evening.
Oil, butter or balm?
They do different jobs. Most guys end up using two or all three.
| Beard oil | Beard butter | Beard balm | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main job | Daily hydration for hair and skin | Deep conditioning, softens coarse hair | Styling and hold, tames flyaways |
| Texture | Light oil, absorbs fast | Soft and whipped | Firm, waxy |
| Hold | None | Light | Medium to firm |
| Finish | No residue | Natural matte | Slight healthy shine |
| Best for | Short beards, dry skin underneath | Itch, beardruff, rough texture | Longer beards that need shape |
| Price | $18.00 | $28.95 | $18.00 |
Beard balm questions

How strong is the hold?
Medium to firm. Enough to keep flyaways down and hold a shape all day, while staying soft to the touch. Use less for a natural look and more for a sharper shape.
Beard balm or beard butter?
Choose balm when you need shape and control. Choose butter when your main problem is dryness, itch or coarse hair. They work well together: butter first for moisture, balm on top for hold.
Can I use it with beard oil?
Yes. Apply oil to a damp beard after washing, wait about five minutes for it to absorb, then finish with balm to style.
Does it work on curly or coily beards?
Yes. It helps define curls and coils and keeps frizz down, so textured beards look neater without losing their natural shape.
