Thanks for taking your time to read out information and reviews on the best beard oils, that are currently available on the UK marketplace.
Oils are used to keep a beard looking healthy with a nice shine. There are however other benefits that include help with preventing beard itch and also preventing dandruff.
There are a lot of different beard oils available on the UK market. Trying to find the one you prefer we believe is often a matter of trial and error. That is because different guys like different scents.
If bears are not treated with oil and cared for, they ten to look dry and a bit scruffy. The skin underneath the beard gets clogged up with dead skin cells, and it is those that make the beard itch.
Running and combing or brushing some beard oil in helps keep the hair itself well treated, but more importantly helps moisturise the skin underneath.

Our skin produces a natural oil called "sebum" and that oil is what ensures healthy hair growth. As we age that oil does not produce the same amount of natural oil as when we were younger.
Brushing and combing the beard does actually help stimulate that sebum and also helps spread it throughout the beard, and the skin underneath.
Even with that, not enough oil is produced, and that is where a good quality beard oil can really help a lot.
Almost all good quality beard oils contain oils such as almond oil jojoba oil or argan oil which help moisturise the hairs, and also moisturise the skin. That in turn keeps away itch and dandruff, and adds a nice shine to the beard.
There are a lot of brushes on the UK market. Aside from the shape, the other main differences is what they are made from, and what type of hair is used to make the bristles on the brush.
Most are wooden, with natural boar hair. Some have a long wooden handle and others have the bristles underneath a top which fits into the palm of the hand. It is a matter of personal preference which style you prefer.

You will notice a number in the brackets beside each brush product name. That number is an average buyer satisfaction rating, scored out of 100%. We looked at the main websites where these are sold and made a note of their ratings left by buyers.

This oil contains antioxidants, essential fatty acids such as Omega 6, and vitamin A, C and E. This helps improve the moisture and elasticity of the hair. That in turn helps keep hair healthy and with a good shine.

The jojoba plant is United States. It grows in the desert regions of Arizona, southern California, and Mexico. It is used quite a lot in cosmetic products.
This oil is predominantly used as it is very good at adding moisture to the hair and the skin. By simply adding moisture you prevent dry hair, and that helps with hair breaking or splitting.
