What it is

Baxter of California Beard Grooming Oil is a conditioning oil that tames and softens facial hair and moisturizes the skin underneath.

Key ingredients

  • Squalane: Plant-derived, for moisturizing facial hair.
  • Avocado oil: Nourishes and adds a natural sheen.
  • Vitamin E: Baxter says it helps reduce common beard irritation.

How to use

Rub the oil between your palms and work it into your beard. Pat any leftover onto your face and sideburns.

Who should be careful

It’s scented with sandalwood, jasmine and cedarwood, and the label lists fragrance (parfum), linalool (Scent ingredient), limonene (Scent ingredient), coumarin (Scent ingredient) and citronellol. The label also includes salicylic acid, which the page doesn’t explain.

What the brand claims

Baxter says the oil absorbs quickly, reduces beard and skin irritation and leaves the beard tamed and shiny with daily use. The brand also says it supports healthy hair growth; the page gives no evidence for that claim.
