this review title is: effective but use sparingly and the content is: this oil is effective for taming the random parts of the beard that are going in some odd direction on any given day it also seems to be making the beard less dry and bristly you probably would not need it on a trim beard but those of us with manly beard start needing a little something at some pointlike any oil it can be annoying if you absent mindedly stroke your beard and then touch your face with your hands it does not irritate the eyes so that is good but you have to remember to go easy on the oil and pretty much keep your hands off your beardmodern barbarians beard balm is a better product for daily use in that it does not make your face and hands oily the balm really does the job with no downside this oil does a better job re getting the beard ready to be combed into a presentable shape but comes with the down side of being oily i use the oil if i need to look presentable for something important but i rub a little of the balm in every day.there are other information for this review, one is this reviewer did purchase it and the other is 2 people think this review is helpful.
