Beard Balm

Beard Balm

A bead balm has multiple important properties to make your beard look good and keep the skin underneath hydrated. These are the most important ones:

• It provides your beard with a healthy shine.
• It helps your beard to retain the moisture you applied by using a beard conditioner.
• It adds some weight and that helps to make your beard less curly.
• It nourishes your beard hair with important vitamins and minerals for a healthy beard.

Beard balm vs beard oil

A bear balm and beard oil are similar and are somewhat used for the same reasons, but there are significant differences between these two beard care products:
A beard balm contains other ingredients. A beard oil is formulated with only oils, but a beard balm contains oils and butters, like shea butter or mango butter.

Because a beard balm contains other ingredients it also has a different texture and consistency compared to beard oil. It has a way thicker consistency that can be compared with soft wax or cold butter. Beard oil is liquid.

Another crucial difference is that beard balm provides a light to medium hold. That is why it can be used to style your beard and tame flyaway’s even better. A beard oil is not powerful enough to use for styling.

How to use beard bam and apply beard balm?

A beard balm is slightly more difficult to use and apply than a beard oil. Because of its thicker consistency you will need to use the back of your nail to get it out of the can. Afterwards you move it a bit between your fingers to melt it. When it is softer you can apply it more easily in your beard.

Use your fingers to apply the beard balm in your beard and to style it or tame difficult beard hairs. Do not use too much because you can always apply more if you feel you need it.
