How To Use
Dispense 3-5 drops of the Beard Elixir into your palm. Rub your hands together to warm the oil, then work it through your beard from root to tip, making sure to massage it into the skin beneath. Use daily after showering while your beard is slightly damp for best absorption. Style as usual. Start with fewer drops and adjust based on your beard length and density - a little goes a long way.
