Thanked: 284Not to revive an old thread, but I was going to make a post on doing your own beard oil and it was basically the same as this one.
I used jojoba oil as the base then just add scents. It crazy how much money you can save for creating the same thing. The only difference I've seen is that the store bought oils are clear and mine is hazy, so maybe they put some sort of clarifier, but who cares - doesn't matter how it looks.
I also did one with coconut oil as the base. You end up with a semi-solid form that I keep in a tin. Since it has a super low melting point, once it hits your hands it melts and just rub it in.
Now I want to do a mustache wax...I love living in the past...

Coconut Oil is a great idea... I think I still have some left to try with.
I am just barely running out of the set of 4 oils I made so they last a really long time.
The one combo that was a little different was Nag Champa + Sandalwood... It had some mild reaction, turned cloudy and ended up smelling like a Musky Baby Powder... Not terrible as a scent but definitely not what I was after. So, gotta come up with a new one... Probably Lime Sandalwood or Sandalwood Lime.
