When you’ve grown out a beard, you may not have to deal with shaving-related issues like stubble or razor burn, but it doesn’t mean that your grooming routine will be non-existent. One of the most common problems you may experience is itchy, dry skin under your beard. Because there’s hair in the way, it can be tricky to keep skin hydrated. Here, we’re sharing our best tips for tackling dry skin under your beard.TIP 1: Wash With Lukewarm WaterDo you shower or wash your face with steaming hot water? That could be part of the problem. When the temperature gets turned up too high, you run the risk of drying out your skin and hair. It’s best to cleanse your skin with lukewarm water and limit how much time you spend in the shower — think 5-10 minutes.TIP 2: Use a Hydrating CleanserNot all cleansers are created equally. To prevent dehydration, choose a hydrating option that is also formulated to soften your beard hairs. We recommend the Baxter of California Daily Face Wash, which gently removes dirt and oil from your skin and beard.
