5 benefits of using beard oil

Beard oil can help make sure you beard is in tip top condition. We look at how to apply and 5 benefits of including it in your daily routine.
Whether you want a short, neat beard or you are auditioning for a place in ZZ Top, you need to know the best way to care for your facial hair growth. There are lots of products on the market to tame, smooth and love your beard, but beard growth oil is one of the hero essentials for your bathroom cabinet. No beard should be without it, so here we take a look at some of the main beard oil benefits.

The best way to apply beard oil

It is easy to apply beard oil, with just two or three drops needed each time.1 Simply put them in the palm of your hand, rub your hands together and run them down the sides of your beard before moving to the chin hair. Then use your thumbs and forefingers to rub it into your moustache.

What are the benefits of wearing beard oil?

1. Beard nourishment

One of the biggest problems with beard hair is that it can become wiry and dry. Beard oil has been designed to hydrate the hair and the skin beneath it which can often become dry.2 When the hair is hydrated, it can also look fuller and lusher, so beard products can give the impression of having a bigger or more even beard. It is easy to think that if you have naturally oily skin, you should avoid using an oil, but this is not actually true. An oil is a great way to replenish what your skin loses and provides gentle care.

2. No more beard-itch

Many men with beards often complain that it can become itchy after a while, and some even begin to experience a form of dandruff. This is due to the fact that the skin beneath the beard has lost much of its natural moisture, causing it to flake in the same way that it does on your scalp. This is often amplified by the scratching, caused by the itch. A beard oil will help to keep the skin moisturised and prevent both of these issues.

3. Taming the strays

Does it sometimes seem like your beard hair grows any way it wants? Are the tufts sticking out all over the place, or random little hairs that insist on pointing in the wrong direction? These flyaway hairs can be tamed with the help of beard oil, which softens the hair, as beard hair tends to be rougher in texture than the hair that grows on your head.3 This makes the hair more supple and it can therefore be brushed, combed or smoothed into place. The Dr Organic Ginseng Shave & Beard Oil provides beard care for the most unruly hair and offers a premium grooming experience.

4. Beard oil smells great

We all love a man who smells fantastic, and men who grow a beard often realise they are missing their aftershave. Many beard oils are now scented and so can help to give you a pleasant fragrance. The scent usually comes from essential oils, to ensure it is gentle, subtle, so take a look at the ingredients to find a fragrance that best suits you.

5. Beard oil soothes sensitivities

If you suffer from skin sensitivities, then a beard can exaggerate this. Redness and irritation will often be brought about by chemicals in many products as well as the environment around us. Beard oil is a great way to help soothe these sensitivities without clogging the pores or interfering with sebum production. This leaves your skin feeling cleansed, nourished and smooth skin.

The best beard oil for sensitive skins includes ingredients such as tea tree oil and cinnamon. When it comes to choosing the right product for you, it is important to remember that beard oil is different to beard balm, beard shampoo and beard conditioner, and these should all be worked into a full beard care routine to have the best effect. Beard oil for men is the holy grail of beard care as it can offer so many great benefits when used as part of a regular routine. It is not only a beard softener, but also a skin moisturiser and a cologne, all in one little bottle. Beard oil is a game changer when it comes to facial hair, so investing in some is a great way to transform your look and boost your beard confidence.
