I have found a product that is marketed as a Luxury Skin Care product, and not necessarily a beard product. I really like all the ingredients (Shea, Mango, Cocoa, Kokum Butter. Coconut and Avocado Oil. Vanilla Sandalwood, Nutmeg, and Clove Essential Oil. Arrowroot Powder.)

This got me wondering how many of you also use beard products that aren't necessarily beard specific?

I used to use a beard oil that had lemon oil, cedar oil and rosemary oil in it i believe and i loved it but it seems to have been discontinued and was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for something similar?

Cheers

Hey everyone I’m working on a beard oil that works well for my beard and I’ve played around with different formulas in the past. Right now my formula splits pretty evenly across jojoba, argan and marula oil with some extras added at the end, Grapeseed, Castor and Vitamin E. I’m trying to go for something lightweight and was thinking about using Grapeseed as a base with Jojoba oil as well, then the remainder would have the rest of the oils. Thoughts on this?

Still fairly new to the beard oil world so please don’t mind any follow up questions that might be silly 😅

Anyone ever use this? Looking for something similar. Company shut down.

Hello, for few months now I'm doing batches of blends of about 10ml for testing and experimenting with different oils.

I usually add two or three drops of essential oil (sandalwood or mint or both).

For my last batch among all other oils I added 15% of sunflower oil (about 1.5ml). After a few days of using this blend I feel there is a smell of sunflower oil in the blend.

I never used so much sunflower oil before. I have added before some but it was below 5%.

Have anyone experienced something like this? Is it common for sunflower oil to have so much strong scent? Is there a problem with something else? Any advice will be appreciated Thank you.

I’ve read a bunch of reviews here about fable who are what seem to be the larger of most companies with sweeter scent profiles. The reviews seem to be hit or miss with more misses. I ignored this and tried them with “the baker”. Not what I expected and smells very soapy.

While googling scents I came across www.mfbeards.com and I can’t find much on them. But the scents seem pretty solid. Has anyone tried them before or have feedback?

I have tried scents from lots of different companies and have a pretty nice collection of oils and balms. My question is how do you guys organize your collections? I was thinking of a nice wall mount to display the variety or maybe on the inside of the closet door. Maybe

Any recommendations?

As stated above I’m looking for a cheap BULK 16oz or larger beard oil preferably non-scented,thanks for the help!

Can anybody recommend a brand that sells an unscented cbd oil? I had stocked up on some from fable a while ago but I can't find it anymore.

Nytt partner, Steven and I, we produce our own unique beard oils. We've started selling them on Amazon and I'm wondering if there might be some people in this group interested in our oils.

Our company is called Cub and Otter and we are selling in Canada through Amazon.

We are gay men under the bear category and we have a bear theme to the design of our oils.

Hello! So I've decided to make my own beard oil since most beard oils I've found don't have all ingredients I want and most of the time cost around 25$ for 30ml. My skin gets really dry and my beard hair breaks easily, so far I've decided to use Jojoba, Argan, Almond, Castor and Avocado oil. I want to know if there are other 'must have' oils or if these are the best ones. I'm also not sure about the mixing, do I just put equal parts of each oil into a new bottle and give it a good stir? Another thing I wanted to know is if beard conditioner helps a lot and if I should get one.

Hey fellow beard enthusiasts!

I recently launched my own line of beard oil, crafted with care in the Midwest, USA, and I'd be thrilled for anyone to give it a try. I’ve put a lot of thought into sourcing the best all-natural, non-GMO ingredients, and I’m passionate about creating a product that not only conditions your beard but also supports a healthy grooming routine.
To celebrate the month of October, I’m offering free shipping on all orders! Whether you’re rocking a full-on lumberjack beard or keeping things sleek with a stubble game, this oil is designed to nourish, soften, and keep your beard looking its best—without any greasy feel.
My first fragrance blend is called Rustic Pines – a smooth, masculine, woodsy scent with a hint of fresh pine that’s subtle but distinct. And, no synthetic fragrances – everything is natural.
I’d love your feedback and, of course, your support. If you’ve got any questions about the ingredients or want to know more about the product, feel free to ask! Thanks so much for checking it out.

P.S.
If you're not interested in purchasing at this time, no worries! I'd still greatly appreciate connected with you on your favorite social media platform. I do absolutely all of this myself. Branding, product research, fragrance formula, website, marketing, material procurement, bottling, fulfillment, social media, all of it. And I'm having a blast doing it, but I'd love feedback and to interact and share my journey with others.

I absolutely love the sandalwood version of "Every Man Jack" beard oil, that you can find pretty much anywhere. However, I am not a fan of paying $10/oz when you look at the ingredients list and see that it's pretty much just cooking oil you can buy by the gallon at the grocery store.

So I've been experimenting with making my own beard oil, using different carrier oils and various sandalwood essentials oils from Amazon. However, none of them are even CLOSE to the "Every Man Jack" sandalwood smell. I haven't had any good results with sandalwood at all, and have started moving on to completely different scents like vanilla or peppermint instead.

People who make their own oils, have you found any brands of sandlewood essential oil that are actually good?

Hey yall. I’m getting stuff together to begin making my own Oil then possibly butter/balm. I would really like to try something with a tobacco scent with another being a wood scent. Which products do yall recommend to get the tobacco scent out of? Thank yall

I will keep this real short and sweet! I recently mixed up an even blend of JOJOBA OIL with ARGAN OIL and SWEET ALMOND OIL and then finished it off with some drops of sweet orange essential oil .

I used a syringe to suck up the oils and then 1 by 1 I ejected all of it into the bottle , at the end , I did a nice shake and let it sit .

I notice my oils did not mix , I had a layer of clear oil sitting on top and the bottom somehow became this creamy white conditioner looking substance .

I let the bottle sit for 5+ minutes in some pretty warm / hot water to see if this would help and it did not

for now , I have just been shaking the bottle , rubbing in my hand and applying , its fine , but , I would like to fix the issue in the spirit of learning and becoming much better at creating as well as trouble shooting my oils .

SO

my reddit friends , what gives?

EDIT: I am now adding the photos! Thanks for helping me through this

Ok so I want to give it a go at making my own beard oil after having tried at least a dozen different brands. What I want is something summery and boozy. My thought was fractioned coconut oil carrier, with Lime EO and Bay rum EO. Would that combination go well together or would the scents throw the nose a good old one two right in the Olfactories? Should I substitute the lime EO for Blood Orange EO?

Beard oil brands are getting to be like podcasts, I know. It seems everybody's got one these days. But what I'm aiming to provide is way more than beard oil... beard oil just so happens to be my first product offering.

I founded my brand, Heartland Grooming Co., for two reasons:

#1. I'm tired of buying products full of preservatives and synthetic smells, colors and flavors, etc. I know in some cases those ingredients aren't always harmful to humans, but those ingredients aren't in there for my benefit. So, they don't need to be in or on my body.

#2. I love the Midwest. Strange reason to start a grooming brand, I know, but hear me out. The Midwest is full of rich culture, and I get a little offended when other regions dismiss us as "flyover states." And even more plentiful in the Midwest is our rich ingredients, a lot of which that are indigenous to the region, that provide tremendous benefits to our grooming habits.

Maybe I'm fighting a losing fight, but I aim to celebrate the culture of my region through products that represent our values, handcrafted with all-natural ingredients sourced directly from companies right here in the Midwest. It's probably a little corny, but the promise the company was built upon is that each product is made from the heartland.

So please, check out my first product, Rustic Pines.

I've been using Gibs beard oil forever and it's getting too expensive to buy in Canada. Like shipping is 41 bucks from gibs. Ridiculous. Also cannot find the 4 oz bottle anywhere Canadian. Anyways what are you guys using that is similar to gibs?

I was just curious do yall think it’s worth it just to make your own oils and butters or purchase? Thank yall

You guys should try this the company is fairly new found it on X called Gold Leagues worth it despite the lack of reviews very good balm and oil

Which do you prefer if you have tried both?

Honest amish was the 2nd oil i used and Goodfellow the 3d, (first being cremo), and i loved HA until i tried GF. The viscosity of GF feels like it lasts longer and makes my beard softer and more manageable, and when i use HA its much thinner. HA also leaves my face feeling moisturized all day, but my hairs feel more rough and coarse and sometimes my mustache hairs will have a “bent” appearance when i wake up causing me to have to trim them at the bent spot which in turn ends up causing me to have to shave it after a while bc it looks a mess. The reason for my post is i sometimes find that GF oil is inconsistent in quality. Sometimes the oil looks extremely darker than other bottles, so im led to believe the ratios are inconsistent, whereas HA gets a MUCH bigger bottle with better consistent quality.

Hey everyone. I’m just growing my beard for the 1st time. Where do you recommended getting the different oils to make my own Beard Oil? Any ideas for recipes for oil and butter would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you
