Customer Reviews:
Deliciously Scented and Nourishing
This beard balm not only smells amazing but also keeps my beard soft and manageable. The aphrodisiac blend is a nice touch!
Overpowering Fragrance
Unfortunately, the scent of this balm was too strong for my liking, and it lingered throughout the day, overwhelming other fragrances.
Great Moisturizing Properties
This balm does wonders for hydrating my beard and keeping it looking healthy. I've noticed a significant improvement in the texture of my beard.
Moderate Hold, Average Performance
The hold provided by this balm is decent, but it doesn't last as long as I had hoped. It requires frequent reapplication throughout the day.
Caused Skin Irritation
Unfortunately, after using this balm for a few days, I developed redness and itching on my skin. It seems my skin didn't agree with some of the ingredients.
Decent Product, Nothing Special
This beard balm is alright, but it didn't stand out to me compared to other balms I've tried. It's a basic option for everyday use.
Product Summary:
The Grave Before Shave Aphrodisiac Blend Beard Balm provides a good hold, helping to reduce breakage and keep the beard in shape, though it isn’t as strong as some other options. It offers a strong, long-lasting scent that some users may find too intense. The balm enhances the beard's appearance with a clean, shiny, and soft finish, adding a subtle sheen without making the beard look oily or greasy.
The smooth texture melts easily into the beard, though some users have reported encountering gritty, undissolvable particles. Priced between $15-$20, this balm is ideal for softer beards with unruly hairs, as well as taming and softening coarse, tangled beards. While the hold is effective, it may not last as long as other products, requiring reapplication for all-day control.
Washing out the balm is easy with a gentle wash, leaving the beard clean and soft. However, applying too much can leave a greasy residue on hands and create an oily, unkempt appearance. The balm preserves the beard's natural oils, promoting healthy skin and hair by providing moisture and nourishment. For application, use your thumbnail to scrape a small amount, warm it in your hands, and rub it into your beard for a smooth, manageable finish.
