Here’s a fun DIY for all our favorite guys!
Beard oils are a popular product for maintaining facial hair and the skin underneath. While there are numerous beard oils on the market, making your own is easy, customizable, and fun. Making beard oil is not only simple, but also make a great and (manly) gift for your favorite guys.
All you need to make your own beard oil at home are bottles, carrier oils, your favorite essential oils, and a mini funnel. When it comes to selecting your carrier oil, we like to recommend jojoba and sweet almond. You can also use coconut oil, but due to its high melting point the result is typically more of a beard balm that you can whip up a batch of and keep in a jar!
