As we travel the country and talk beards with 1,000's of beards each year there are two main complaints that we hear about: greasiness and unpleasant smell of the oil. The reason that most beard oil is "greasy" is due to the poor quality of oils used in the manufacturing of the product(s). The method of extracting the oils is also crucial in determining the outcome of the product. Oils can be extracted by heat, chemicals, or through cold-pressed extraction. Cold pressed extraction is always the most desirable method to making beard oils. The final reason that your beard oil is greasy is due to the formulation of the oils used in producing the beard oil. Some oils have a much heavier weight or thickness (sometimes referred to as viscosity) in the beard oil industry. As a result, the types of oils used in manufacturing beard oil will have varying results. In summary, the method of extraction, the quality of the oils used, and the formulation of the oils used all determine the "greasiness" of beard oil. Remember that not all beard oils are the same and each product is different in regards to smell, feel, and composition. Look for oils that are organic certified, cold-pressed extracted, and that have the right formulation of oils. If you are tired or trying beard oil due to it being greasy or not having a pleasant scent, check out "Your Beard Superstore" as they offer the "non-greasiest oil on the planet" and offer over 43 different scent options.

Brushing your beard is very important for healthy beards. What type of tool you use to do use is vitally important to achieve the best results. For the longest time, beards had only two primary options to brush their beards, a wooden or plastic comb or a boar's hair/horse hair wooden handle brush. Both of these tools are great products for certain beard types.
A comb is a great tool for thinner beards, however it doesn't exfoliate, generate blood flow and snags and pulls thicker, fuller beards. Combs certainly have their place in the beard care product line, but realize that some beards reach a point where a comb is not the best tool for combing and brushing your beard. The staple of the industry, the wooden handled boar's hair brush. This is a great and fantastic tool for beards. The bristles are designed to be soft enough, yet firm enough, to exfoliate and generate blood flow while being easy on the skin. Although this brush is fantastic for shorter beards, if you have a thicker, fuller beard you will eventually reach a point where you stop getting the results that you would like from this brush. This is because as the beard grows out in thickness and length, the bristles of the brush are not capable of easily getting to the skin. The third brush type was created by Magnanimous Beard Products after using both the wooden combs and the boar's hair brush. As my beard became thicker and fuller, I needed a tool that could get to my skin, detangle my beard, generate blood flow and more... The Big Beard Detangler Brush accomplishes all of these things and it fits perfectly in your hand, doesn't generated static electricity, comes in two size options, and it is waterproof. There are several options of combs and brushes available for beard care. However keep in mind that the purpose of brushing your beard is to exfoliate, detangle, and generate blood flow to the follicles of the beard. As a result, as your beard grows and progresses, so will your need to upgrade or progress to different brushing tools. Remember, combs are for thinner beards, boar's hair brushes are for shorter beards, and the Magnanimous Big Beard Detangler Brush is for thicker, fuller beards.

Beard butter is a product that is made by combing various butters (typically mango, shea, cocoa, etc.) with various oils to make the product know as beard butter. The composition of beard butter is very similar to regular butter or margarine (hence the name "beard butter"). Beard butter is used to provide a deep conditioning of your beard/facial hair and to moisturize and condition your skin. Beard butter does not control hairs or make them lay down, it only moisturizes, softens, and conditions (although it does aid in controlling frizziness).
Magnanimous Beard Butter is triple whipped and triple cooled and is handcrafted with all-natural and organic certified ingredients. Beard butters that are not triple whipped and triple cooled will not be a light and fluffy as beard butters that are not triple whipped and triple cooled. Offered in a 4 oz container and available with 43 various scent options. To learn more about Magnanimous Beard Butter, please visit Your Beard Superstore.

Beard and mustache popularity is at an all time high and as a result a wave on new products have been creating to provide grooming, maintenance, and aid in the growth and overall health of facial hair. With so many choices and product offerings it is hard to know which product does what and/or which product is right for you. Lets take a look at some of the various product offerings, describe their purpose, and examine things to look for when purchasing your beard products. To begin, I would like to state that the product descriptions below are for Magnanimous Beard Products only. Not all beard products are the same so what we are describing is exclusively for these product offerings. Some beard balms do not provide hold while others do, some beard oil is extremely beneficial to all areas or your skin, while other beard oils may not be, etc.
The king of all beard products - beard oil. In short, beard oil is a moisturizing skin treatment and a hair softener/conditioner. Beard oil is typically comprised of various oil combinations, however some beard oil may only have one type of oil in it (a lot of people just use coconut oil for example). Beard oil is applied by placing a desired amount in your palms, then lightly rubbing your palms together, and then working the oil to the skin and throughout the beard / facial hair. Magnanimous Beard Oil is created by combining seven different oils together because each oil provides a different health benefit for your skin and facial hair. Beard oil is used to treat the skin underneath and around the beard. Men will experience "beard itch" when growing facial hair and this itching usually comes from dry skin. As a result, beard oil comes into play to moisturize the skin underneath and around the beard or facial hair. In addition to moisturizing the skin, beard oil also nourishes and softens the facial hairs so that the hairs are not so dry, pokey, and scratchy. Beard oil is not just good for beards, it is wonderful for skin and hair. Remember, not all beard oils are the same and it all comes down to the ingredients. The reason Magnanimous Beard Oil uses seven different oils is because each of the oils provides you with a unique health benefit. Think of your beard oil in comparison to a multivitamin. Are you going to take a multivitamin that only offers one, two, or three vitamins vs a multivitamin that provides you with all the required vitamins your body needs? Oh course not and the same is true with beard oil. If a beard oil only has one, two, or three oils in it ingredients, your beard, skin, and hair are not getting the nutrients required for healthy growth. So look for beard oil that has a variety of oils combined so that your beard/skin can obtain necessary nutrients. Beard oil also comes in a wide variety of scent options so always look for beard oils scented with essential oils and NOT from perfumes or fragrances. Beard Butter: Beard butter has become very popular. Part of the reason for this has been to bad experiences from using poor quality beard oils (greasiness, bad smell, ladened with chemicals, etc.). Beard butter looks and feels very similar to regular butter (hence the name "beard butter"). Magnanimous Beard Butter is made by combining mango and shea butters, five organic certified oils, and a few other ingredients. Beard butter provides a deep conditioning of beards and facial hair and it is also very good for your skin and hair. Beard butter does not provide shaping or control of your facial hair, it softens and moisturizes. The only negative to beard butter is that it must be kept near room temperature. If exposed to higher temperatures, the beard butter will melt and turn to a liquid. However, the benefits far out way this negative. To apply beard butter, place desired amount into your palms and rub your palms together to melt the butter. Apply to your skin and throughout your beard/facial hair. Beard Balm: Beard balm is used to provide light-to-medium hold of your facial hair / hair. Beard balm is typically made by combining beeswax, butters (mango, shea, etc.), oils, and more... As your beard grows from a short, close kept beard to longer beard, you will experience areas of rogue growth or hairs that grow at different rates and lengths (these hairs are known as flyaways). Beard balm comes into play to help tame these flyaways and makes them lay down and appear more uniform in appearance. To apply beard balm a dab of the product is placed in your palms and then it is heating by friction (rubbing your hands together). After heating the product, the beard balm is applied to your beard. As mentioned earlier, not all beard balms are the same (some don't provide hold or shaping...) so you will have to find a beard balm that performs the way it should. Lastly, beard balm does provide conditioning and softening, however not as effectively as beard oil or beard butter. Beard Wax: Also known as mustache wax, provides a medium to strong hold and is designed with mustache shaping in mind (handlebar mustaches). Although primarily designed to shape and style those magnanimous mustaches, some beard enthusiasts use beard wax to control stubborn spots, curls, etc. in their beards. Beard wax is very similar in composition to beard balm often having the exact same ingredients but with different ratios of the those ingredients (more wax, less oil, etc.). As with all products, not all beard or mustache waxes are the same so you will have to experiment and assess reviews to determine which wax is the best for you. In summary, not all beard products are the same. They utilize different ingredients, provide different results, some utilize chemicals while others are all-natural and chemical free. Beard oil is used as a skin moisturizer and hair softener and beard butter provides very comparable results. Beard balm and wax is used to shape and control your beard / facial hair. Although balms and waxes do provide some moisturizing and conditioning, their primary function is to shape and control your facial hair(s). As with any product, always assess the ingredients and analyze reviews prior to making beard product purchases.
