Oil: the conditioning step.
Beard oil is a liquid step that can be distributed through facial hair and down to the skin beneath. In the BARBOR ritual, start with a small amount and spread it evenly.
Balm: the finishing step.
A balm is worked between the palms before application. BARBOR places it after the care steps when you want to finish a deliberate shape.
How to choose.
You do not need every product at once. Begin with the step your routine is missing. Add a finishing step when it serves your beard and preferred style.
Use the final directions on your product label. BARBOR’s educational guides explain a grooming routine; they do not promise product results.
