The types of ingredients found in your facial hair care product is important to note. Even the natural product ingredient deck should be reviewed. There are many plant oils and butters out there, but using the ones that will support the purpose for the product’s use is important. At Mia’s Botanicals, we are finicky about the natural oils and butters that are used in our facial hair products. In addition, we NEVER use fragrances.
Plant oils (aka natural oils) have distinct benefits for improving the condition of hair and skin. Here are some natural oils we incorporate into our products, and how they may benefit the facial hair aficionado:
• Aloe Oil (Aloe Barbadensis) - anti-bacterial, hydrating.
