The Roadmap to Your Signature Blend

Creating your own oil is about more than just picking a nice smell; it is about building a tool that works for your specific face. Here are the steps you will take to create your own custom beard oil:

  • Select carrier oil(s): These create the majority of the final oil. You can choose up to 3 oils.

  • Select essential oil(s): Provides the scent and adds properties to the final oil. You can choose up to 4 oils.

  • Describe what you want the scent to smell like: Be as descriptive as possible. The better the description, the better we can match what you want.

  • Are there any scents you wish to avoid?: List out anything you don't want to smell like so we can avoid using or recommending it.

  • List any oils you may be allergic to: Help us avoid any use or recommendations of your allergies for your product.

  • Name your beard oil!!!: It's uniquely yours, so it needs a name!

Choosing Your Foundation: The Ten Carrier Oils

The carrier oils are the base of your product. They dictate the texture and the primary benefits for your skin and hair. You have the freedom to choose up to three from our selection to get the balance just right.

  • JOJOBA OIL: This provides skin and hair moisturization and helps with hair regrowth.

  • COCONUT OIL: Hydrating and protective to soothe irritated skin.

  • HEMP OIL: This oil replaces oils lost due to sun exposure.

  • APRICOT KERNEL OIL: Contains vitamin A, C, and E to maintain moisture.

  • ROSEHIP OIL: Focuses on moisture and elasticity.

  • ARGAN OIL: Contains linoleic acid to combat skin irritation.

  • MORINGA OIL: Helps prevent “beardruff” by moisturizing skin and follicles.

  • JAMACIAN BLACK CASTOR OIL: For those wanting thicker, fuller, and healthier hair.

  • GRAPESEED OIL: Assists with hair growth.

  • SWEET ALMOND OIL: Provides reliable skin and hair moisturization.

By combining these, you can address multiple issues at once. For example, if you want a thicker beard but struggle with flaking, a blend of Jamaican Black Castor Oil and Moringa Oil creates a powerhouse for both volume and skin health.

The final part of the process is communicating your vision to us. We need you to describe what you want to smell like in the text box provided. Whether you want to smell like a forest at dawn or a cedar workshop, be as detailed as you can. We also ask that you list any oils you'd like us to avoid and confirm any allergies so we can maintain your safety.

At last, name your beard oil! This is a one-of-a-kind creation that you built yourself, and it deserves a name that reflects that. Once your order is in, our company shall look over your choices. If we see a combination that might not work well, we’ll use our experience to reach out and make recommendations before we mix it up. Braveheart Beard Oil is excited to see what you create and help you maintain your beard with a scent that is entirely your own.
