Somewhere along the way, "moisturized" started meaning "greasy." You put on a beard product, and now there's a sheen on your face, product on your fingers, and a faint worry about what's about to end up on your pillow.
That's the tradeoff most heavy creams force on you: real conditioning, or a clean feel — pick one. Thick, wax-heavy butters sit on the surface, looking like they're doing something while the hair underneath stays just as dry as before.
You shouldn't have to choose. You need something rich enough to actually condition and light enough to disappear the moment you touch it.
That's what Kühn Beard Butter is built to do.
We stripped the wax down and leaned hard into unrefined shea and mango butter — a high enough concentration that it melts the second it hits your palm, then absorbs straight into the hair fiber instead of coating it. Cold-pressed shea nut, jojoba, marula, and meadowfoam oils finish the job, carrying essential fatty acids deep into coarse, dry strands. No wax cap. No heavy film. Just soft.
Stay with thick, waxy butters and you'll keep wiping "extra" off your hands and wondering if it's actually absorbing. Switch to Kühn, and every application disappears into your beard — leaving it soft, never weighed down, never shiny.
If you're struggling with a beard that feels dry no matter how much product you use, buying Kühn Beard Butter is the right call.
Scoop a small amount, rub it between your palms until it turns to liquid, then work it in from the skin out. No wait time, no grease — just an immediately softer beard.
My name's Dave. I'm newer to growing a beard and kind of let it go farrell just for something to do. After a while, I began looking into beard care then started looking at competitions. I was looking for a beard butter to apply as a leave in conditioner over night. I purchased Kuhn all natural beard butter, the Mahogany scent. After just three days applying once each night, I already experienced a significant difference in the look and the feel. By beard went from coarse and wirey to soft and smooth! Ive been using it ever since. Not only will you love the difference but your special someone will too. The Mahoney scent is not overwhelming yet lasts all night and into the entire day after.
Best beard butter I have ever found. Soft, silky, smooth and never ever lumpy. The scents are next level of longevity and yet they never scream out or annoy. Subltle, all day. I have tried every scent on offer in oil, butter and many of the co wash as well. My top 5...Cherry Pipe, Bair Canyon, Mahogany, Mountain Forest and Mountain Whiskey though Black Rain may be tied with it. Also enjoyed Palo Santo and Musk. All have been great but some are very subdued. I prefer the stringer scents. IN any case, there is much more than scent here as the quality is top tier. I have tried 30 other small batch brands, KUHN is my #1. Customer for life at this point.
Beard butter is great. Doesn't feel greasy. The hold last. Toughest choice now is picking scents. They are all amazing. Will definitely be buying more.
The beard butter is a very good product. I put it on my beard in the evening after a shower and my beard stays soft all night. In the morning all my beard needs is a little oil and ready to go!
I absolutely love this one! It has a really cool container but what's inside is the real treasure! This product is hypoallergenic, so it doesn't give my wife a reaction when we're close. This beard butter will make your beard the softest thing on earth! I've used it now for almost three weeks and it's as if I have an entirely new beard. What's also great, is that the price is very reasonable and just a little product goes a long way. The scent is amazing and lasts for a long time. If you haven't tried their products, do your beard a favor and give them at least one try. you'll be glad that you did and so will your beard!
So I did knock down my bread quite significantly, however will continue to grow it back. I used other products from small businesses to maintain my bread and when I emailed them questions about their products I received radio silence. Chris has been in top of things, quick to answer questions, incredible follow up, very informative and honest. I will definitely keep using his products as they are high quality. I will 100% order again and will continue to support his brand. There are many options and I gotta pace myself not to buy too much. Beard butter is on point and looking forward to the balm as well. The co op wash is perfect. My beard never felt as good and the scents were damn good. Try his stuff and I think you’ll see that it’s that good.
Probably the best product this site sells. Please do not skip out on it! The softness it brings to your beard is unparalleled by anything else I've tried.
Since a cosmetic product can be of great quality but still react poorly depending on the individual, I like to provide context for my review. My beard is medium length made up of really fine wavy hair. I like to straighten out my beard and I avoid any balms, waxes, or heavy styling products in order to leave it silky and smooth.
I have tried dozens of balms, waxes, and butters. In my experience, beeswax simply does not work with my beard. I decided to purchase Kühn products after seeing the beard butter that emphasized shea / mango butter along with shea nut oil. The beard butter from Kühn is the best blend I have yet to find as it completely melts when you work it into your hands and apply it to your beard. However, it still leaves my beard feeling stiff, tacky, and causes the hairs to clump together in a way that does not lay flat. I can mitigate it somewhat by thoroughly brushing my beard and using less than the recommended amount but I am looking to switch to the Hair, Beard & Skin Moisturizer.
My first order was limited to the Cherry Pipe soap and Misty Mountain beard butter. I loved both so much, I turned around and ordered the co-wash, Black Sea beard oil and beard butter, and Teakwood, Cedar & Amber, and White Sand soaps. The Cherry Pipe was so unexpectedly good and I am starting to work my way through the recent purchases. My wife is a tough one to satisfy on the fragrance front and all passed the smell test. As a fairly new customer, I am very happy with the purchases, products, and service.
Best beard butter on the market. I've tried countless products from so many different companies and Kühn is the only brand that works, smells great, and doesn't cause clogged pores or other skin issues. Can't go wrong here.
Seems to be an issue with the consistency of the product this time as it stays close to a liquid towards the base, while a thin shell forms at the top layer. Nothing like the previous shipment.
Black Sea smells plum amazing. I don't eat many plums, so I was a little reluctant to try this scent. However, I was relieved to find that all the ingredients work together synergistically to create a complex scent that smells great.
I also like the texture of the butter--very smooth and so easy to apply to a damp beard. The butter conditions your beard so that it's supple and easier to tame the tangles.
Excellent quality product. Conditions my beard nicely, consistency of beard butter is perfect, high quality packaging, fast shipping, good communication from seller, mountain forest scent is subtle, pleasant and lasts a long time. Superior than most other brands I've sampled. Highly satisfied, I will buy again.
I have tried a lot of beard butter brands they’re not as good as kuhn’s. I love that apple bourbon butter. It’s the best butter. If you’re considering or shopping for beard butter or products I would highly recommend kuhn’s
I very much like this product. I shopped around for a bit trying to find a good place to get all the stuff I'd like for my beard care and decided to give this place a try and don't regret it.
This is fantastic beard butter! It's smooth, melts down quickly, and is easy to apply. The Cherry Pipe scent is wonderful and is just the right potency to last all night without being overpowering. In the morning my beard feels soft and healthy, not greasy or heavy. Highest praise possible: my girlfriend loves me coming to bed smelling like Cherry Pipe, and who am I to argue?
This review is for Mountain Whiskey Beard Butter which has made a huge difference in the texture and softness of my beard. It is outstanding! I use it in combination with the Kuhn beard oil and Kuhn co-wash. Alone, the beard butter made a huge difference and even adds a bit of styling hold. Once I combined it with the oil and wash the difference in my beard is like night and day. Kuhn will be my go to beard brand from now on. All of the scents I’ve tried have been great too.
Mountain whiskey, southern Utah, bair canyon, mahogany and cherry pipe are all terrific!
I am currently utilizing both the unscented beard oil and the beard butter. I have found that both products are indeed a worthwhile investment. My beard and face have experienced a significant improvement in both feel and appearance. My beard is now noticeably softer to the touch and the itching sensation has been alleviated. Furthermore, you will not experience any oily residue on your hands after touching your beard.
I recently ordered the Mountain Whiskey co-wash and beard butter from Kuhn Beard Grooming, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Both products smell absolutely amazing—rich, clean, and not overpowering.
The beard butter is a standout. It keeps my beard soft and looking its best without leaving any greasy film on my skin, which is hard to find. It absorbs well and gives a healthy, natural look.
If you want your beard looking its best, I highly recommend Kuhn Beard Grooming. Great products that actually deliver
My wife has never loved any of the products I use on my beard, never really noticing or loving the product or the scent. She absolutely loves this, and I do as well. Smells great, and softens my beard.
I’ve tried a lot of beard products over the years, and the Beard Butter is easily one of the best. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, and it melts right into the beard without leaving it greasy or heavy. My beard feels noticeably softer, more manageable, and looks healthier overall.
The scent is clean and overpowering which is a huge plus for daily use. You can tell this is made with quality ingredients, and a little goes a long way.
If you’re looking for something that conditions, tames, and keeps your beard looking sharp all day, this is it. Highly recommend
Warm a small amount between your palms until it melts, then work it through — damp or dry, doesn't matter much. Focus on the flyaways, balm works better for that.
Can I use shampoo or hair conditioner on my beard?
Yes, you can — though it's better to use our co-wash. It's sulfate-free and keeps your hair and beard feeling moisturized instead of dried out, which is what regular shampoo sulfates will do to it.
Are beard oils safe?
Yes — ours is non-comedogenic, five real cold-pressed oils, no phthalates or filler. If you've got a known nut or seed oil allergy, check the ingredients first like you would with anything else you put on your skin.
What beard products do I actually need?
Co-wash in the shower, then oil, butter, or balm after you towel off. That combo alone will make your beard really soft — add balm on top of the oil or butter if you also want hold.
Does beard balm/butter/oil help my beard grow?
No — nothing you put on your face makes hair grow faster, that's genetics. What balm does is stop breakage and calm the itch that makes guys pick and over-trim, so you keep more of what you're already growing.
How much beard balm should I use?
Usually more than you think — I see a lot of guys use too little. Just keep applying until it feels like enough for the length of your beard. Longer beard, more balm. Thicker beard, more balm.
What is beard balm used for?
Balm's heavier and thicker than oil or butter, so it holds. That's what keeps your flyaways down and helps your beard keep its shape through the day, on top of conditioning it.
Is beard balm the same as beard butter?
Nope. My balm's about 30% beeswax, my butter's only around 5% — so butter still has a touch of hold, just way less than balm. Both condition your beard, balm just adds a lot more hold on top of that.
Should I use beard butter at night?
Sure. Good option if you want deep conditioning working overnight without any hold or shine the next morning.
How often should I use beard butter/balm/oil?`
Daily. Damp beard, right after your shower.
Do you use beard butter or oil first?
You can use both, if you want — I'd do oil first, it's easier to apply butter on top after. But you don't have to use both. Either one alone works fine, oil for a normal day, butter if your beard's especially dry.
Can I use beard oil, balm, and butter together?
Yes, and a lot of guys do. Oil or butter for daily conditioning, balm on top if you want hold. Just don't use oil and butter in the same routine — pick one based on how dry your beard's running that day.
I use beard oil/balm/butter but my beard is still really dry and unruly, why?
A well moisturized beard starts in the shower and what you wash it with. If you wash your beard with shampoo or regular bar soap, your beard is being stripped and will be very dry. You need to use a conditioner or co-wash.
I'm new to beard products, what's the difference between oil/balm/butter?
They are all designed to moisturize your skin and beard, they just do it in a slightly different manner. Keep it simple. Short beards, beard oil. A bit longer, beard butter. Longer and/or thicker unruly beards, beard balm. Start with an oil and butter if you're new, then go from there.
What's the shelf life of oil/balm/butter?
12 months if stored in a cool, dry place.
How much do I use of oil/balm/butter?
Depends on the length of your beard, but most don't use enough. You need enough to cover all of the hair follicles. It's difficult to apply too much, and very easy to use too little.
How long does the scent last?
You should expect 6-8 hour from our scents.
Will it stain my clothes?
No, it shouldn't. Most beard products leave a greasy film on the outside of your beard which can rub off onto your clothes. Our products are designed to absorb fully so there shouldn't be any transfer onto your shirt or other clothing.
What if I order a scent I don't like?
TOO BAD! I already got your money. JK. If you order any product from kühn and you're not happy with the scent, we will replace it with the scent of you choice. We'll never make someone keep a scent they won't wear.
