DIY Whisky Beard Balm

Facial hair requires its own particular care and maintenance. Without extra moisture, the skin underneath can become itchy, flaky, and dry. Beard oil and balms help promote healthy facial skin, as well as keeping beards soft and full.

This Whisky Beard Balm is incredibly easy to make. The majority of the balm is comprised of our Beard Oil Base, which contains luxurious hair-loving oils like jojoba oil, argan oil, and fractionated coconut oil. A dash of yellow beeswax is added to turn the liquid into a solid balm that also gives the beard a bit of structure. It’s a firmer beard balm compared to some. If you prefer a softer product, reduce the beeswax.

The balm is scented with new Scotch Whisky Fragrance Oil. It’s not a straight whisky scent, as it also has notes of vanilla, cedarwood, and musk. It’s a complex unisex fragrance oil that you won’t want to stop smelling.

THREE: Carefully pour the mixture into the candle tins until completely full. In our tests this recipe makes five candle tins if filled to the very top. Allow the mixture to fully cool and harden for several hours.

To use, swirl your fingers in the balm to warm it and then work through the beard, starting at the roots and working to the end. A little goes a long way. Apply once a day, or when facial hair is feeling a little dry.
