FAQ
Questions, answered.
Everything you need to know about our beard moisturisers.
What do Afrobeard products do?
They moisturise. Classic Beard Oil and Classic Beard Balm are moisturisers for your beard and the skin beneath it. They are cosmetic products, not treatments.
Should I choose the oil or the balm?
Beard Oil is lighter and absorbs quickly, which makes it ideal for everyday use and shorter beards. Beard Balm is richer and solid, for when you want a heavier moisturiser, and it suits medium to long beards.
You can use them together or on alternate days. The Classic Beard Kit includes both.
How often should I use it?
Daily, or whenever your beard needs moisture.
How much should I use?
For the oil, 2–3 drops in your palm, or 1–2 drops for the moustache. For the balm, scoop a small amount with your fingertip. A little goes a long way.
What does it smell like?
Sandalwood and cedarwood lead the blend with warm, earthy notes. Cardamom adds a gentle spice, and frankincense rounds it off with depth. The scent is masculine and understated. It's noticeable up close and never overpowering.
What are the ingredients?
Classic Beard Oil: coconut oil, castor oil, shea butter, and sandalwood, cedarwood, cardamom and frankincense essential oils.
Classic Beard Balm: coconut oil, castor oil, shea butter, beeswax, and the same essential oil blend.
Both are free from alcohol, parabens and sulphates.
Is there anything I should know before first use?
Do a patch test before first use. Afrobeard products are for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children.
How should I store it?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, and keep the bottle cap and tin lid tightly closed after use. The balm may soften in hot weather. This is normal and won't affect the product.
Where is Afrobeard made?
In South Africa. We make every batch ourselves, by hand, in small batches.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes, on orders over R400.
