With the 2020 Beauty Shortlist Awards coming up on the horizon it is no surprise that the Big Guns are laying out their latest products in a bid to secure one or more of the coveted trophies. Having won their gongs over consecutive years, Village Barber are clearly setting out their impressive stall, and one of their stand-out products is the new Beard Growth Oil. Now anyone who has tried this range - especially the Shaving Balm of which we will focus on later - will know how on point their research & development is with each of their goodies, and we have here another stellar example of them hitting their goal right on target.
The Beard Growth Oil is ultimately an intense moisturising preparation which treats the skin and the hair follicle, promoting strength in the beard, and conditioning the bed of skin on which that beard grows. Once stimulated the result is a deeply nourished and conditioned crop of face fuzz! With all-natural ingredients including jojoba, rosemary, lavender and cedarwood, as well as all the benefits of coconut, we also have the delicious citrus coming through with lemon and cypress, so not only conditioning, but perfumed to perfection also. Once your beard whiskers have come into their own, we highly recommend trying out their Beard Maintenance Oil which will soften even the thickest beard taking it from bird’s nest to duck down! Simply add 6-10 drops of oil massage well and you’ll be bowled over by the delicious combo of patchouli, orange, Lemon, vetivert, vanilla, bergamot.
Alongside the Beard Growth and Maintenance oils, we highlight a past winner in the Beauty Shortlist Award for Men’s Grooming, simply because it is one of the best products on the market - Village Barber’s Shaving Balm - it is one of those products which once tried will need its own revered place in the bathroom cabinet. Again, the science has been applied here to ensure that following the sweep of the blade, the skin gets an instant hit of love to moisturise, nourish and protect it - and the calming effects are fast to act, which is perhaps what makes this blue bottle of glory, so important. You won’t come across any parabens, sulphates, or propylene glycol here - they, as well as DEA and artificial colouring have all been kept out of the mix, and since all the ingredients are therapeutic-grade natural oils, we can be sure of the quality of this gem.
The Beard Growth Oil comes in a handy pipette bottle of 30ml and is £21.95. The Beard Maintenance Oil and is in a 50ml pump at £24.95. With the Shaving Balm following up at £19.95 for 125ml.
