Recipe
This beard wax recipe, penetrating and with a non-greasy feel, disciplines and sculpts your beard without giving it a sticky feel or effect. Both rich in squalane and castor oil, it prevents dehydration of the skin and promotes growth, for a denser and more uniform beard. Atlas cedar essential oil gives it a fragrance with woody, pleasant and masculine notes.
PROPERTIES AND BENEFITS
- Beeswax: its film-forming properties contribute to its protective and anti-dehydrating action. It is also known for its antimicrobial and sanitizing benefits.
- Castor Vegetable Oil: Castor vegetable oil strengthens and helps grow your hair to make it stronger and thicker. Nourishing, it also restores shine to your beard.
- Squalane: soft, silky and non-greasy (dry touch), it spreads very well and gives your face and beard incomparable softness. Very close to human sebum, its excellent affinity with the skin improves the absorption of different active ingredients. It strengthens the lipid barrier of the epidermis: it is an ideal active against dehydration of the skin.
