I’ve been struggling with my beard freezing during skiing trips. Any recommendations for beard oils or balms that actually work? Also, does anyone use a specific type of balaclava or face mask that doesn’t make it worse?
One thing I’ve found helpful is layering a lightweight balaclava under my ski mask—it keeps the beard dry without adding bulk. For oils, I swear by ones with tea tree oil; not only do they moisturize, but they also help with odor control after a long day on the slopes. Regular grooming also makes a big difference in preventing ice buildup.
Buff over balaclava works better for airflow.
