Beard Oils & Beard Balms


I know this isn't the typical crafting post I use to do. However, both of my brothers have decided to grow beards and they love my essential collection. Over the Fall/Autumn of 2015, I made a few recipes, but here is one I created for them. The oils were mixed with beeswax and jojoba oil to  create the beard balm in the tin.  It's solid while cool, but softens when rubbed between the fingers before applying to the beard.  My brothers seem to like the scent and say heir beards are softer than when not using anything at all.

Have you ever made a beard old or beard balm? Did you make them for a specific person or just in general for sale?

Have a great day, and....

Craft On.

It's been a while....

Forgive me. Life has got the better of me and I've had to put any and all blogging aside. I haven't stopped crafting, but I had to take a hiatus.  We've had a family member fight and lose his battle with cancer. My house has seen many colds, especially between my youngest monkey and myself, we were both sick off and on for almost 4 months straight since October, 2015.  My inlaws have moved to a house within 2 miles from me and I've been over there taking care of several minor and major issues, like plumbing issues and mailbox flying through the air thanks to the winds we get. Hopefully, if life doesn't throw me too many curveballs in a row, I'll get back to posting.

Craft On...
