Product Spotlight - Father's Day Edition: Wild Man Beard Cream
Back in 2011, our Wild Man Beard Oil Conditioner became an instant best-seller and set a standard for natural beard care. Our Beard Conditioner is so versatile, absorbent and lightweight, it can be enjoyed by any and all skin types. But, we felt our line needed a new product for those beards requiring some extra TLC. By the end of 2012, we had developed another best-seller: Wild Man Beard Cream.With Father's Day just a few weeks away, we're taking a closer look at this ever-popular man gift.
Wild Man Beard Cream is a deep-conditioning beard balm ideal for moisturizing and softening the driest, scratchiest beards. This long-lasting beard balm deeply moisturizes, softens and allows for light styling/shaping of the beard. Particularly recommended for those with dry skin/hair (characterized by an itchy, flaky and unruly beard) or those living in dry or extreme climates. Formulated with pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils and botanical extracts in a variety of beard-friendly scents.
Our formula starts with Organic Coconut Oil, a deeply moisturizing, though highly absorbent ingredient that offers long-lasting softening power and a non-greasy feel. We add just enough Pacific Northwest Beeswax to stiffen our cream for a soft hold that allows for light styling and shaping of unruly beards. The formula is boosted with hair-strengthening botanicals and our signature essential oil blends. Initially offered exclusively in The Original scent, Beard Cream is now available in our four traditional scents plus an unscented version.
Using Wild Man Beard Cream is simple: Rub a pea-sized amount between the palms to melt, then massage into a dry beard down to the roots. Applying to a dry beard maximizes absorption and softening power of this leave-in conditioning cream. Increase the amount used depending on beard length and skin type. Wild Man Beard Cream can be used as a nighttime beard treatment or in conjunction with Wild Man Beard Conditioner. For best results, wash and thoroughly dry the beard using
We're committed to only using the finest all-natural ingredients and will never use chemical stabilizers in our products. This means that our waxes, creams and balms can be temperature-sensitive. If your product is too hard to use, try soaking the jar in hot water for 5-10 minutes. Avoid leaving this product in direct sunlight or intense heat. If it begins to melt or becomes too soft, try placing it in the refrigerator until it hardens.
Wild Man Beard Cream has become a favorite among those seeking a natural, yet powerful beard softening product. Used alone or with the rest of the Wild Man line, you're sure to enjoy a softer, more controlled and less irritating beard. Know a Wild Man with an untamed beard? Are you one yourself? Try Wild Man Beard Cream and see the difference!
Product Spotlight: Roseberry Lip Tint
In honor of our first rose bloom of the year, we're taking a close at our favorite warm-weather lip color: Roseberry Lip Tint!
Roseberry Lip Tint is naturally colored with Alkanet, Elderberry and Rosehip for a sheer reddish-pink reminiscent of rose petal jam. Sweet Organic Strawberry and softly floral Rose extracts give this lip tint a deliciously feminine flavor. This light color is ideal for a natural Summer look and can be used as a cheek stain as well!
Made with a rich base of deeply hydrating Coconut Oil, softening Mango Butter and nourishing Rose Hip Seed Oil, these balms provide lasting moisture without being sticky or waxy. We never use micas, making our products safe for sensitive skin and entirely free of heavy metals and toxic additives.
Each of our lip tints have been carefully formulated to provide real color without the use of any synthetic ingredients or additives. By experimenting with colorful herbs and naturally-sourced clays, we have developed eight different lip tints in a range of colors.
Roseberry is one of lightest shades making it perfect for everyday wear during the active Summer months. Keep this lip tint with you for lasting moisture and natural color through all your adventures!
May Day Sale + ACLU Benefit!
Happy May Day! We're celebrating our most favorite time of the year with 20% off all orders using code MAYDAY16 through May 2nd! Order by May 2nd for delivery by Mother's Day within the US.
May Day is a traditional Spring holiday celebrated by many cultures, but is also recognized worldwide as International Workers' Day. We love the holiday's history spanning from ancient folk celebrations to modern labor struggles. The advancement of worker's rights is deeply entwined in the history of May Day, giving us reason to celebrate the many gains and sacrifices made.
All aspects of modern labor rights in this country - from the eight hour workday, to child labor laws, to the two-day weekend - have been won through a long and often bloody struggle by the labor movement. To this day, workers are engaged in battles to obtain rights - like Familias Unidas por la Justicia currently fighting for basic labor rights from Sakuma Berries and Driscoll's.
May Day is traditionally celebrated as a day off from all things - work, school and even shopping. We understand the inherent hypocrisy in having a sale for May Day and, for this reason, we are donating half of our sales on May 1st to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The ACLU uses litigation, lobbying, and community empowerment to defend and preserve individual rights and liberties guaranteed by the constitution. We're excited to support this vital work!
We hope you all enjoy a restful weekend and a fun-filled May Day! Here's to remembering the sacrifices of the past so that we can value the present and protect the future!
"THE DAY WILL COME WHEN OUR SILENCE WILL BE MORE POWERFUL THAN THE VOICES YOU ARE THROTTLING TODAY."
