A beard is a lazy choice for guys who’ve given up on shaving, right? We’re kidding – if anyone knows that a beard is actually a work of art, it’s us.
But let's face it, even the mightiest of beards can sometimes get pretty uncomfortable from time to time.
The skin beneath your beard faces its own battle – navigating through thousands of hairs crammed into this relatively small area. Facial hair a lot stronger and coarser than the hair on your head, which can feel rough and prickly. It can also look dry and wiry if you’re not looking after them properly – and the hidden skin underneath can take a hit too.
So, what's the secret weapon to tackle this? Enter the holy grail – beard oil for men, here to transform your beard routine.
Are you wondering what beard oil does? In a nutshell, beard oil moisturises, nourishes, and tames unruly facial hair, leaving it soft, smooth, and impeccably groomed.
What is beard oil used for?
Beard oil is a versatile grooming elixir designed specifically for the care and maintenance of your facial hair and the skin beneath it.
Our King C. Gillette Beard Oil is made using plant-based oils – specifically jojoba oil, grapeseed oil and evening primrose oil – to treat your beloved beard to the best possible nourishment.
It smells pretty great too, thanks to our signature King C. Gillette fragrance, featuring notes of bergamot, sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli and cardamom.
Disclaimer: we take no responsibility for the strange looks you’re going to get when you’re caught sniffing your beard later on.
Benefits of beard oil
Beard oil has so many wonderful benefits that make it an essential product to have in your beard care routine. Let's explore some of the top benefits of beard oil:
Conditions your beard
Our beard oil is lightweight and not at all greasy to the touch, which makes it ideal for conditioning your beard, leaving it feeling noticeably softer and smoother, and with a healthy-looking shine.
Moisturises dry skin
Beard oil doesn’t just nourish your beard – it can also help to condition the skin underneath it. It’s harder to give the skin on your chin, cheeks and neck a good wash if they’re covered in facial hair, meaning it could start to itch and flake.
If you’ve got dark hair, flakes of skin can look very obvious in your beard, but using a beard wash and beard oil regularly can help to keep this skin in good condition.
This will make your face feel a lot more comfortable and it’ll keep your confidence high.
Preps your beard for trimming
If you’re wondering when to use beard oil, thanks to its versatile nature, you can use beard oil at any time during your grooming and styling routine. The hydrating and softening effects of beard oil make coarse beard hair much easier to style and groom.
Even the longest beards require regular trimming to keep them growing healthily, and the styling process will be much smoother if your facial hair is beautifully soft.

How to apply beard oil
Step 1
Begin by emptying a few drops of our nourishing beard oil into the palm of your hand. Remember, a little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and add more if needed.
Step 2
Gently rub your hands together to evenly distribute the oil. Then, starting at the base of your beard, work your way up, ensuring every strand is coated.
Step 3
For the best results, make sure to massage the oil right down to the skin underneath your beard hair. This not only promotes healthy beard growth but also prevents dryness and irritation.
Step 4
If you have a longer beard, this is the perfect time to shape and style it to your liking. Our beard oil provides a light hold, making it a breeze to achieve your desired look.
How often should I use beard oil?
When it comes to keeping your facial hair looking and feeling its best, consistency is key. So, if you’re wondering how often you should use beard oil for the best results, then twice a day is what we recommend.
For a beard that's consistently soft, hydrated, and impeccably nourished, incorporate our beard oil into your daily routine. Apply it:
- In the morning: As part of your morning grooming ritual, after you've cleansed your face and beard. This kickstarts your day with a refreshed and well-conditioned beard.
- Before bed: Just before you hit the hay, for overnight nourishment. This ensures that your beard receives a steady supply of moisture and nutrients while you sleep, resulting in a healthier and more manageable beard in the morning.
