Comment on DIY All-Natural, Extra Hold Beard Balm by Bev M.

Is beeswax necessary for this recipe? My husband loves his goatee, has had it since we met in 2003. Shaving it isn’t an option, because it’s easier to trim once a week than to shave daily. I get that, but it’s a little rough on *my* face without something to make it softer. He keeps the goat very short, so hold isn’t a concern at all. I’d like to make him something that will just make the hair less abrasive on my face.
