FAQ

What's the difference between beard balm and beard oil?
Beard oil soaks in to moisturize the skin under your beard and soften the hair. Beard balm adds a little more: the beeswax and butters condition the hair and give light hold to tame flyaways. Many men use oil in the morning and balm when they want more control, or use both.

How do I use beard balm?
Scrape a small amount from the tin with your thumbnail, warm it between your palms until it melts, then work it through your beard from the roots to the tips. Comb or brush it into shape.

How do I use beard oil?
Put a few drops in your palm, rub your hands together and massage it into the skin under your beard, then smooth it through the hair. It works best on a clean, slightly damp beard.

Do you have an unscented beard balm?
Yes. Franciscan Beard Balm has no added scent and smells only lightly of the cocoa butter, nuts and honey in its natural ingredients.

Which scent should I try first?
The Core Four Beard Balms set lets you try our four original blends (Chrism, Holy Smokes, Lectio and Orthodoxy) and find a favorite.
