Beard Oils

Any of you bearded gents using any beard oils? I recently purchased "Millys" beard oil from apothecary87.co.uk purely because it's endorsed/deisgned by a guy with an awesome beard!

It smells good and I have noticed the beard looks healthier and fuller when it's applied. Expensive stuff though. Just wondering what the rest of you guys are at?

I'm using a couple from here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PuurBody/search?search_query=beard+oil&order=date_desc&view_type=gallery&ref=shop_search. Got the Sherriff and BlackSmith and they smell great.

Often recommended here is Dr K, although I haven't used it myself: http://www.drksoap.com/beard-care/

Lastly, there's Barrister & Mann's beard oil which won some award last year. You can see the ingredients on his site, but since he is on holidays for some reason you can't see anything he has for sale: http://www.barristerandmann.com/

I notice my beard is shinier and my skin doesn't seem bothered by it. It will be interesting to use it through the winter and see if I can avoid the beard-druff which is common in the winter.

Do you guys trim at all when wanting to grow a longer beard or just leave it? I was thinking I could do with a little touch up around the edges at the moment but I want to leave it grow longer

Just trim around my sideburns when growing it as it tents to get a bit whispy and homeless looking.

Also, I use Cornwall beard oil. Smells great and de-frizzes my beard.
