PNW Original Cedar & Herb Infused Beard Oil

PNW Western Red Cedar and Herb Infused Beard Oil

If you have a beard, you need beard oil. Period, end of story. Beard oil is how you keep a beautiful beard conditioned and whipped into shape. A good beard oil will help keep your beard shiny, silky-soft and under control, prevent beard itch and dandruff, promote growth, and smell great! Just about every man that has tried our cedar and herb infused beard oil gets hooked and can’t find another like it anywhere else. For real, this stuff has been known to be addictive.

UPDATE (April 30, 2020): Back by popular demand! (We are so happy guys are loving this stuff!) We are putting together a small batch of the Western Red Cedar and Herb Beard Oil. There will be only a limited quantity available at this time, so get it while you can!

What Makes Our Western Red Cedar and Herb Infused Beard Oil Different from all the rest?

This small-batch, handcrafted beard oil recipe is a blend of five high-quality base oils including grapeseed, argan, jojoba, avocado, and sweet almond.

But while many beard oil brands stop there, we go on with ours to combine these beard pampering oils with the healing power of responsibly wildcrafted and organically grown herbs from right here in the Pacific Northwest. Western red cedar, horsetail herb, lavender, and rosemary (see the benefits below) – all specifically chosen with a magnificent beard, and your skin, in mind – are slowly infused into the beard conditioning oil which forms the base of this product.

Choose the aromatherapy blend with CEDAR & HERB essential oils, or go ‘NAKED’.

The CEDAR & HERB essential oil blend is our own proprietary combination of quality essential oils including cedarwood, lavender, rosemary, and patchouli. Not at all flowery, this therapeutic essential oil blend has a nicely grounding, woodsy, down-to-earth scent that you are sure to love. Specially blended, not just for the skin and hair benefits, the aromatherapy properties can actually boost your mood, too! …not to mention anyone in your vicinity. Ladies? My guy wears this stuff daily, and I can’t get enough of it.

Here is my man’s review of the Western Red Cedar & Herb infused Beard Oil…

I am not one that uses very many personal care products other than the basics. So when my wife first created some beard oil, it took a little bit to convince me to use it. I decided to give it a shot, in part to make my wife happy (happy wife = happy life) and in part because it smelled really good.

Now I can’t stop using it!

It really is that good. First of all, it smells amazing – earthy and soothing. Secondly, it tames the wildness in my beard. Reduces stray and straggly hairs making my beard more manageable. Not the least of all, it smells really good to my wife. I don’t know about you, but if you’ve ever had a woman come face to face in the ‘kissing zone’ and breathe you in – it’s pretty awesome.

It really is one of those things I never thought I’d try and I likely never would have if it wasn’t for the fact that it was essentially purchased for me. I would recommend this as a gift for any man out there. It may not be at the top of their list, but after trying it, it likely may be there in the future. Just be careful because this stuff is addicting!
