Best Beard Oil by Urban Nomads | Fresh Ripe Orange Scent with Herbal and Ginger Elements | Natural Balm & Leave in Conditioner for all Beard styles and Mustache (Beard Oil)

First time beard grower here. Been too cautious in the corporate world and have always kept a fairly conservative look. I'll be 42 this year and have finally decided if my performance doesn't speak for itself at this point then oh well!! So I threw caution to the wind and put the razor away. Coming up on three months now and I am loving the beard and the response to the beard has been awesome! I cannot attribute it only to the beard, but I am not lying in saying that I am up for a serious promotion! I can say that the beard somehow did give me some confidence and really did get me noticed in a see of clean shaved faces and conservative haircuts. All of that said, the beard was starting to get out of control! I've been on a steady hunt for how to tame it for some time now. I have tried probably 15-20 different balms, oils and waxes. All of them leaving me, and my increasingly out of control beard, wanting. Then one magical day I found the Urban Nomad through an Amazon search. Gave it a quick look and hit order. It was one of those rare life changing clicks. This is a strong hold wax which is exactly what I needed to get things under control. I wash my beard 2-3 times a week with a good beard shampoo. Many days I just rub some oil or balm in and let the beard be. However, on the days that I need to head into the office or have meeting with clients, I grab my little jar of Urban Nomad beard wax and massage it in. Afterward I brush through it and then use my hands to style/push/pull and chaotically organize the chaos. What i love is that after this process, it holds. Not too crunchy, but tough enough to keep things where I want them. I use any excess on my hands to run through my hair and tame flyaways and then I'm ready to rock and roll! This is hands down the best wax I have found and does everything I need to do. If it helps, I have very course beard hair. Beard density is medium to heavy. To anyone out there who is looking to tame some face salad, you can't go wrong with this wax. Good luck. Good beard. Good life.

Specific product: strong hold (not just regular); beard time: 9 months of growth with minimal trimming; beard length: about 3+ inches at longest areas; length of product use: about 2-3 weeks. Other beard-specific products used/tried before this one: Caveman oil and balm patchouli scent; Honest Amish beard wax and balm.The Urban Nomads product smells and looks like thick cake frosting that is vanilla. It even has sucrose listed as the second ingredient!! This stuff works for me because it keeps down the "twangers" that I have that some people call fly-away hairs. This product does not weigh down my beard and does not "feel" like I have a clump of goo on my face all day long. When I touch my beard it feels thicker because this product makes it a bit stiff (as it should). This product does the best job for what I've tried to keep my beard calm and more professional looking for what is otherwise a somewhat un-tamed beard. I apply it after a shower and follow the direction to both rub it all the way into my beard and also to be sure I get the top hairs coated to keep them down as much as possible. I will also then run a comb through it to evenly distribute it and then possibly just brush the top hairs to re-flatten them. It does feel a bit "heavy" at first but then as my beard dries it looks very nice, not oily and stays fairly calm the rest of the day even after touching it many times. The smell is not very strong to me and is fairly mild. Like I said, it smells like cake frosting and looks like it to me and my wife but goes into my beard just fine and looks very nice. I'm a fan for now and will be using the entire 2 oz. jar even though I probably would like a little more of a "woodsy" or "manly" smell...however, I can get some cologne for that!

This stuff is very nice. I immediately noted the sweet vanilla scent upon opening the jar. It is pleasant and soothing. It smells a bit sweet, probably due to the sugar in it (it contains sucrose. but don't eat it people. it's not frosting!). Sucrose can be used as a natural conditioner and moisture retainer, and is good for skin and hair, just an fyi. It seems a touch gritty when you take some out of the jar at first (again, probably due to the sucrose naturally crystalizing), but once you rub it between your fingers or hands, and warm it up a bit, it easily becomes nice and smooth to work with. I can tell you that this wax (or balm) is doing a good job of conditioning my facial hair, without it being oily, and I have only been using it for a few days. It has a good hold for everyday use and washes out nicely. Plus, did I mention yet that it smells good? Oh yeah, I did. Women and men alike are going to want to eat your face because it makes you smell good. But it works as good as it smells, trust me on that. This company needs to advertise a bit more, because I know they could sell many more units of this (and probably their other products, if this one is any indicator of quality) and make this one of the top selling waxes on the market. Nice job you beautiful Spaniards!
