Literally use their products from head to toe!
UPDATE (3/25/2019):<br />One of the amazing things about Orbital is they are always improving based on customer feedback. I just received a new tin of Beard Balm with my usual order of V12. The tweaks to the scent and, most importantly, the texture were perfect! Excellent balance of holding weight while retaining the absorbtion and light feel. Cudos!<br /><br />ORIGINAL POST<br />Been using the beard balm for a few weeks now:<br />Pros:<br />-really like how it absorbs! A lot of balms that have a similar greasy texture in the tin remain that way. Sure. A glistening beard at a Mardi Gras parade or a rave may be a plus but not on a daily basis. This stuff seems to get soaked up pretty fast without losing the scent.<br />-conditions skin AND beard well.  I have often alternated balm for the mornings to condition the beard and oil at night for skin to reduce itchiness. This seems to do a 2-for-1.<br />-Twist tins are the bomb!<br /><br />Cons: (mostly personal preference)<br />-I prefer a balm with a little more  holding power. Not talking about sculpting but to keep the flyaways down. I don't know if it is more wax or whatever that does it. But part of what makes this good (easy spread and quick absorbency) may also reduce its holding strenght???<br />-Smell. This is totally personal. Most of Orbital's balms lean heavily toward citrus and minty smells. The natural wood was my favorite (for hands) but not sure I would want on my face. I personally like more savory/sweet combinations (honey, bergamot, pepper, tobacco, hint of vanilla, etc.). Why I have pretty much moved over to normal strength v12 for my hand salve. Just love that smell. Also, the owner is amazingly receptive and has made custom mixes with other balms (e.g. V12 with more/less of the yummy ingredients)!<br />Ok that is my 2c. Thanks for cranking out such awesome products!
