I recommend you do this daily. Especially during the dry, cold winter months. If you see that your beard is too oily, decrease the usage or the amount you are using. If you have a full beard that is longer than 1″ (25mm), you should use about a dime to nickle size amount of oil, or a full thumb nail scoop of our beard butter. Increase if needed for longer beards (3+ inches). Decrease for shorter beards and goatees. After you have it in your palm, rub your hands together and then work the oil into your beard, making sure you get it down to your skin. Use a brush to distribute the oils evenly.
