Beeswax in beard balm gives your beard a slight hold and styling properties to an extent. Unlike beard wax which gives you the ultimate hold that your beard can achieve, the beeswax in beard balm is only just a slight hold at best. In addition to giving you a better hold on your beard, beeswax also helps to lock in the moisture given off by the other ingredients in the balm.
If beeswax is primarily for the hold, then the Shea Butter is for spreadability. Shea adds a couple layers of benefits when it comes to beard balm. First off, its extremely rich in moisture. This is critical, especially if you live in a cooler or dry climate. The butter in beard balm makes sure that your beard will remain healthy throughout the day. Complimenting the Shea butter used, the Jojoba oil will make your beard incredibly soft and healthy looking. Especially if you have very sensitive skin, jojoba in particular is just about as close of an all natural ingredient that you can use that closely resembles the natural sebum oil that your skin produces. This greatly reduces any chance of having an allergic reaction – its generally recommended to do an allergy patch test before applying any new products to your skin on a regular basis.
Essential oils provide nearly all of the aroma to any quality beard balm. In our beard balm, we include Cedarwood and Patchouli essential oils and it smells great!
