Beard Oil: How to Soften the Beard and Hydrate the Skin
October 9, 2023
A well-hydrated, soft and healthy beard is synonymous with self-care while emphasizing one's character and personality. To ensure these ideal conditions, you can use beard oil. Its composition consists of a mixture of different types of oils with different properties, from carrier oils to essential oils, which work synergistically to also nourish the skin underneath.
When is it advisable to apply beard oil?
To get the best possible results from the properties of beard oil, it is ideal to apply it after showering or washing your face, although it can also be used at any other time of the day.
The reason why its use is recommended after cleansing the skin is due to the opening of the pores by warm water: this reaction allows the beard oil to penetrate the skin and hair follicles. In addition, the applied oil layer helps to retain moisture in the beard hairs and thus slows down drying.
Here are the top benefits of using oil on your beard:
Skin care: Beneath the thick hair on this prominent facial area, the epidermis is prone to problems such as dryness and flaking. Using beard oil helps avoid such inconveniences;
Suppleness: Applying natural oil all over the beard helps keep it supple, making it easier to maintain and preventing knots and tangles from forming;
Prevention of beard dandruff: This problem arises as a reaction to skin irritation. Using beard oil solves the problem at the root by keeping the skin's moisture levels high and preventing or reducing irritation and the resulting flaking;
Protection from environmental influences: The beard must be protected from the various environmental factors that can damage it through their effects. A natural beard oil also fulfills this important function against sun, pollution and weather influences.
How to choose the right oil for your beard
Not all beard oils are the same and their selection should be based on some essential factors if we want to achieve results that meet our expectations. Some of them are:
Skin Type: It is crucial to choose a beard oil that suits the characteristics of the skin. Oily skin needs a jojoba or grape seed based oil, while dry skin should benefit from a coconut or argan based oil;
Beard type: For a thick and coarse beard, an almond or castor oil based oil should be used. However, for a beard with fine and thin hair, an oil based on jojoba oil is suitable;
Composition: A high-quality beard oil should contain all-natural ingredients, such as essential and carrier oils. Synthetic chemical ingredients should be avoided as they can cause skin irritation and damage the beard;
Fragrance: Oils with different scent variants are available on the market. It may seem obvious, but choosing the scent that best suits your personal taste and style will help 'wear' your beard better;
How to apply beard oil to always have a soft beard
The process of applying beard oil is very simple; However, it is recommended that the application be carried out in a few but essential steps to maximize the effect:
Beard Cleansing: Before applying the oil, make sure your beard is properly cleaned and dry. There are cleaning products on the market specifically designed for this task, without the use of too harsh synthetic chemicals, like this natural regenerating soap bar</a>. After washing, dry it with a towel.
Dispense a small amount in the hand: Regardless of the length and thickness of the beard, it is advisable to start with a small amount of product and add more if necessary;
Distribute with your hands: Rub your hands to distribute the oil evenly between your palms, then apply to your beard;
Apply oil to the beard: After spreading it, use your fingers to massage it in, making sure to get it onto the skin underneath. Start at the neck and work upward to cover all areas of the beard;
Comb or brush beard: Use a brush or comb to perfect the distribution of the beard oil layer and loosen any knots and tangles;
Modeling: After the distribution is complete, you can shape your beard to your liking using a special balm.
Daily Reapply Only When Necessary: Depending on the length and thickness of the beard, it may be necessary to reapply the beard oil several times a day to keep the beard soft and hydrated. There is no hard and fast rule; You should experiment until you achieve the desired result.
