Waterbearer Handcrafted Beard Oils & Maintenance

Published: September 12, 2025
Beard Oils

I created these recipes as a set, which I call Waterbearer Handcrafted Beard Oils, and a schedule to follow at the end. They’re made for beard growth and maintenance, the scheduled routine includes use of a microneedle roller.

I provided a list of each oil with the amounts in ounces and milliliters for reference when purchasing. After the list is each recipe I've created, along with an easy name to remember it by. Please read and follow them accordingly. After you've prepped each oil, you'll find a short microneedle guide and schedule right after the recipes.
