Most beard butters on the market are nothing more than melted, heavy fats that leave your facial hair feeling weighed down and uncomfortably greasy. They sit on top of your hair instead of conditioning it, rubbing off on your shirt, pillowcase, and phone.
There is nothing worse than wanting deep moisture for your beard, only to end up with a shiny, heavy face that traps heat and clogs your pores underneath. You are left frustrated, choosing between a dry, brittle beard or a greasy, heavy mess that ruins your comfort all day long.
You do not need more heavy grease sitting on your face. You need a deeply rich, light-as-air conditioning treatment that absorbs completely into the hair and skin while leaving a clean, velvety finish.
That is why we created the Kühn Beard Butter with Kaolin Clay.
We took our original butter foundation of Shea and Mango butters and re-engineered it into a high-performance "clay butter." By fusing natural Kaolin Clay with non-comedogenic Babassu Oil and Vitamin E, we created a velvety conditioning treatment that melts on contact and glides through your beard with zero greasy weight:
Kaolin Clay provides an incredible silkiness and a matte-conditioning finish that makes your beard feel instantly fuller and softer.
Babassu Oil melts right in to soothe the skin underneath without ever clogging your pores.
Vitamin E acts as a vital antioxidant shield to repair damaged follicles and prevent brittle ends.
Cold-pressed Marula, Meadowfoam Seed, Argan, Jojoba, and Shea Nut Oils deliver deep, long-lasting nourishment from the inside out.
If you keep using heavy, traditional butters, you will stay stuck with a greasy, weighed-down beard and clogged skin underneath. But when you switch to a mineral-enhanced clay butter, your beard absorbs pure, high-potency nutrients while staying soft, light, and comfortable all day and night.
If you are struggling with a dry, coarse beard and hate the greasy feeling of standard butters, then purchasing Kühn Beard Butter with Kaolin Clay is the right decision.
Scoop out a small amount after your shower, warm it between your palms, and massage it deeply into your beard and skin to lock in ultimate hydration, eliminate dry brittleness, and enjoy an effortlessly soft, matte-conditioned beard.

I love Kühn beard products. I use the oil on my beard at bed time and the co-wash when I get home from work and take a shower and then I use beard butter when I get ready for work in the morning. I’ve been trying all of the scents and haven’t found one that I don’t like but my favorites are cedar & amber, cedar & cinnamon, and cedar & leather.
Great scents as always! I was afraid that the kaolin clay would affect the scent but it absolutely does not! My beard is very gray with a tint of red still there as well but it is also super dry unless I use a quality beard butter and Kuhn beard butter with kaolin clay really softens!!
The products makes my beard super soft and my skin is no longer dry/itchy. I get the Cherry Pipe at first you get the Cherry smell up front but then the Pipe smell kicks in leaving a nice wood smell with hints of Cherry. Chris the owner is also awesome and is very helpful plus he backs up his products and replies back quickly. I definitely recommend and highly suggest emailing Chris if you have any questions he is like a beard wizard.
Chris makes some really wonderful products. I love how gentle the beard butter with Kaolin clay is on my skin. No irritation, no pimples, and really lovely scents. I have used the Cedar and Amber(my favourite so far), the Misty Mountain-very fresh and light, and Cherry Pipe which smells very much like it sounds. All of them have been great smelling(wife approved), and I look forward to trying more! He also bent over backwards to get my products to me in a timely fashion, before I had to leave for a work trip. Thanks Chris, and Kuhn Products for making my beard smell, feel, and look amazing!
This beard butter is so good, I’ve literally kept my beard through the summer just to keep using it. And encouraged every friend of mine to grow a beard so they can use it too. Love it! Keep the good stuff coming.
Chris was very helpful and is a great guy to do business with. The beard products I ordered have been awesome and last all day. They smell amazing and they have made my beard really soft without leaving it oily like other brands. Misty Mountain,Cherry Pipe,and Mountain Whiskey smell amazing and there are plenty more scents I cant wait to try.
I’m not a fan of your Beard Butter. It always leaves my beard feeling very dried out after using. I have ready up on your use of bees wax in the butter but it still doesn’t seem right. The co-wash is just ok. It feels more like a thick lotion for your beard. The balm is ok, very difficult to figure out the right amount to use. It’s so difficult to apply even after vigorous rubbing of the hands to heat it up. Either it’s not enough and just moisturizes my hands or too much and it’s caked in the beard. I think I’ll stick to making my own homemade stuff.
This was my second order from Kuhn products! Picked up the butter with clay to try out. Works very similar to Kuhn’s beard oil just alittle thicker. Still need to use Balm for “hold” but if you’re looking for something to keep your beard and skin under your beard from being dry this is the stuff. Just scoop some onto your hands, rub in both hands to get it thinned down and then work into your beard. Love the scents that are offered and have received many compliments from others about them.
I use several Kuhn products but the beard butter is a staple. It’s great for conditioning but also adds styling hold and helps with flyaways when it’s hot and humid, rainy or windy outside without being too heavy. I’ve enjoyed all the scents I’ve tried so far and looking forward to trying a couple more soon.
Tried:
Southern Utah
Bair Canyon

Cherry Pipe

They have some of the best butteron the market. It is perfect for my evening routine and lets me wake up in the morning witj a well nourished beard that is easy to groom.
This is a quality product hands down. One of the better butters Ive used ! Only reason for 3 stars is because Im not picking up barely any scent on this ? Cedar Amber is the scent. The oil smells phenomenal then dissipates quickly. The butter not smelling much of anything ? Wouldn’t order it this scent again.The butter itself is awesome ! Otherwise 5 stars.
This was a first time purchase along with a 1oz beard oil in the same scent. This is really great stuff, it’s brought my beard from a scraggly mess to something many have complemented me on. Really like the scent as well. Looking forward to try other scents and products!
I have the butter and it smells nice and I feel like it’s making a difference in how soft my beard is. It is a great product and one that I plan to always keep in my grooming routine.
Mother of baby jesus this is what I have been looking for. I have no idea what voodoo clay is placed within the confines of the tin, but I am sure that I have covered my entire body in it. I use it to get into wetsuits, as axle grease in my dually, and, surprisingly, for its intended use as a beard butter. Overmany compliments. Beard feels the best it has in years. I like both options, but if you are on the fence, get the one with the clay. It changes the scent profile slightly but makes up for it in the wear feel and all-day lightness. (I hope that makes sense.)
I bought the sample pack for my husband to try out different scents and they all smelled incredible! My pregnant friend is having a rough morning sickness and she said that my husband's beard smelled amazing (scent: Mahogany)! The next scent he tried, I could smell it from the other side of our house (scent: Cedar & Leather)! I instantly became a bloodhound tracking my husband down because he smelled like a snack! I wanted to live in his beard! My husband's beard has always been dry and wire-y but since he's been using the oil and butter it is super soft and thick! For 2 weeks, he tried all the scents and balms and the one that we both loved is Cedar and Leather! These are by far the best oils and balms he has ever used. He's tried Walmart brands to other big name brands and they smelled nice but nothing like this brand! The only negative thing I can say about these oils/balms is I'm going to have to fight women off my husband's beard!

I had used the regular butter and decided to give this version a try, and all I can say is that I might end up sticking to the clay version more than the regular one
After learning about and researching and using beardcare products for six months now, I know what companies and ingredients are the best,and which ones to avoid. Kuhn stands tall in the beardcare industry,easily one of the very best butters out there. Unique scents and packaging. The scents are very long lasting. The clay in the butter helps their butter stand apart from the crowd. Silky smooth texture just like the absolute best butters out there. I'm so glad I discovered Kuhn a month or so ago. Again they are up there with what I consider a gikden handful of the best companies and butter, top notch number one. I will keep buying Kuhn clay butter and other products as long as I have a beard. I do have a wish, would love to see Kuhn make their female scents into beard clay butter!!
Kaolin clay butter feels good in my old gray corse beard. I went with the mahogany scent. Which is badass by the way.
My only problem was the strong smell of the kaolin Clay. It’s pretty strong for about 10 to 15 minutes then goes away. Then all
Is left is a nice medium mahogany scent.
I wish more company’s offered a strength boost. It could have been a little stronger. But all and all I love Kuhn products. The carrier blends work very well and smells really good.
Next time I’m going to have to try the beard and body butter.
100% will buy more Kuhn products.
This stuff is amazing - nothing else comes close to the softening and conditioning this offers my gray beard. Super nourishing, and the scent is 100% dialed in. Doesn't knock you over, and doesn't disappear. It lasts throughout the day, and hits you every now and then to remind you it's there. And probably the biggest plus - my wife loves it too.
Just a month after my first purchase and I'm a lifetime customer. Next level customer service from Chris as well, which you never see today. He had a minor shipping error fixed within a day. The softness and fullness of my beard has gone up dramatically in just over a month. Can't wait to try more Kühn products. Splurge the 2 bucks for the kaolin clay, it goes on like (you guessed it) butter.
The Kuhn Beard Butter with Kaolin Clay is the perfect compliment to the Co-Wash. I ordered the Misty Mountain and Utah Summer Beard Butters and I absolutely recommend them! If you are looking for something that will keep your beard moisturized, looking good, and smelling fresh without feeling greasy - look no further! I have used other products from various beard companies and none of them have even come close to the quality of Kuhn's products. I'm very excited to try out new scents on my next order!
I bought the black sea with kaolin clay because I heard nothing but good things to say about it. The butter is super soft, hydrating and easy to apply. The scent is my major hiccup though. It is so strong that for hours after application I cant smell anything but the butter. The scent also has a synthetic quality to it. Other than the scent Im impressed with the product and getting responses within minutes from the company is fantastic.
Great product and exceptional customer service. Currently using the Beard Butter with Kaolin Clay and it’s absolutely steps above other products out there. Also picked up the cowash and complete moisturizer. The moisturizer consistency is perfect and I love that you can basically use it on your beard and face and whatever is left I smooth into my hair. The birch scent is my favorite as it’s light enough to not clash with colognes. 5 stars all around.
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.
