Travelers' Tavern | Beard Balm

A worn-in scent of tobacco and leather, softened by sandalwood, amber, and warm vanilla.

Scent

Pink pepper and a brush of citrus first. Tobacco and leather at the heart. Sandalwood, amber, and warm vanilla settling into the base.

Scent may seem muted due to the high beeswax content but blooms with warmth and use.

Hold

Medium hold, built for conditioning.

Weight

4 oz net weight in a black plastic screw-top container.

Ingredients

Beeswax sets the hold, traditionally used as a skin protectant. Beef tallow, rich in fatty acids similar to those found in human skin. Shea butter, sourced from the karite tree and used for generations in West African traditions. Jojoba oil, structurally similar to skin's natural sebum. Sweet almond oil, long valued in traditional skincare. Stearic acid lends structure. Vitamin E for shelf stability. Fragrance oil for scent.

Safety / Allergies

Contains beeswax and sweet almond oil (tree nut). Avoid if you have a tree nut allergy. Patch test if you have known sensitivities.

Use & Storage

Scrape a small amount from the tin, warm between palms until soft, then work through the beard from root to tip. Doubles as a body balm. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sun.
