What it does
Most beard itch starts at the skin, not the hair. Hemp oil is massaged down to the skin beneath your beard to moisturise where dryness starts, without sitting greasy on top. Jojoba oil softens coarse hair so the beard feels smoother, looks neater and is easier to comb. A short formula that does one job properly.
Key ingredients
- Hemp oil — moisturises the skin beneath the beard.
- Jojoba oil — softens coarse hair and helps it look cared for.
How to use
- Start with a clean, towel-dry beard.
- Tip a few drops into your palm — two or three for stubble or a short beard, more as it grows.
- Rub your hands together and massage down to the skin first, then work out through the hair.
- Comb or brush through to spread it evenly. Once a day is plenty for most beards.
Scent
Century — blackcurrant, apple and bergamot, softening into jasmine and oakmoss on a warm vanilla base. Fruity, rounded, easy to wear.
Willow — black truffle and ylang lifted by bergamot and blackcurrant. Earthy, refined, a little darker.

Questions
Will beard oil help with an itchy beard?
Itch is usually dry skin under the beard. Massaging the oil into the skin helps moisturise it, which is why most men find a daily oil makes a beard far more comfortable. If irritation carries on, or the skin looks inflamed, speak to a pharmacist or GP.
Does beard oil make a beard grow faster?
No. No beard oil can change how fast or how thick your beard grows. What it does is keep the hair soft and the skin underneath comfortable, so the beard you have looks its best.
How much beard oil should I use?
Start with two or three drops for stubble or a short beard and add a drop or two as it gets longer. If your beard feels greasy, you’ve used too much.
Should I use beard oil or beard moisturiser?
They do different jobs. Oil is for the skin underneath; Beard Moisturiser conditions the hair itself. Plenty of men use both — oil first, moisturiser to finish.
