When the summer heat and humidity rise, the conditions for your beard care also change. Continuing with the exact same routine, not least the application of beard oil during the dry winter months is a sure recipe for a heavy, sticky and overwhelming feeling on the face. But you absolutely do not have to put the bottle away completely. It’s just a matter of adapting your technique. Here we go through the four most common mistakes you should avoid to keep your beard both fresh, light and healthy on the hottest days of the year. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

  1. You overdose on the oil: Using the same amount as in winter quickly becomes too much. When the skin already produces more oil and sweat in the heat, the beard easily becomes heavy and sticky. <\/li>
  2. You forget about the humidity: High humidity means that the oil is not absorbed as quickly. If you don’t adjust the amount to the weather, the oil will settle as a shiny film on the outside of the straws. <\/li>
  3. You apply to damp beard: Oil and water repel each other. If you don’t dry your beard properly after showering or bathing, you’ll lock in moisture under the oil, which can irritate your skin in the heat. <\/li>
  4. You skip the cleansing: Simply applying new oil day after day without washing out old oil, sweat and sunscreen clogs pores and creates a breeding ground for itching.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    1. Overdose of the beard oil<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    By far the most common mistake during the summer months is to continue to squeeze the same amount of beard oil into the palm of your hand as during the bitterly cold winter. During the winter, your skin and beard scream for all the moisture they can get, but when the temperature rises outside, your skin’s natural balance changes dramatically. The heat means that your own sebaceous glands are already producing more oil, and if you then add your usual winter dose, the result quickly becomes disastrous for both look and feel. <\/p>

    Less is more in the summer heat<\/h3>

    Instead of giving the beard a healthy and fresh glow, the overdose leads to the beard looking greasy and unkempt. The oil settles like a heavy film over the hairs and has difficulty sinking into the skin. Not only does this make your beard feel uncomfortably sticky on your face when you sweat, but it also attracts pollen, dust and dirt from the summer air that gets stuck in your beard. <\/p>

    To avoid that oily and heavy feeling, you should halve your usual dosage as soon as the summer heat hits. Start with just one or two drops \u2013 you can always add a little more if needed. By reducing the amount, you allow the skin to breathe in the heat, while maintaining the softness of the beard without compromising on freshness. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
