    I am making my second batch now! I am a server/bartender/beeker/light tech guy. This stuff holds great. My stache stays lookin' fly! It isn't the biggest, but it will hold my curls and gives great play too. Others just won't hold or dry too quickly then it feels like a cardboard cut out. Got stopped by some guys at a festival selling beard care products, after telling them I make my own and what I used, they gave me a business card, but I already have too much work goin on right now. Rate this an 11 out of 10.

    Just made up a two tin stache of this -- used Mexican coca-cola (I think the pure cane sugar might add something over corn syrup) with anise extract and some spruce tips for scent -- strained out the spruce when pouring. Just now used the over-pour and am stylin' -- came out excellent! Now just need those mustache shaped tins mentioned in the thred below; I used altoids tins for the flip-top action, but no doubt the proper shaped ones will make it even more awesomore

      Awesome Craig! Those spruce tips and anise star must make for an excellent scent. You'll find the lanolin scent goes away pretty fast. My only dismay is that you used Coke. Coke might spoil the entire thing. [I hate coke!] Real sugar Pepsi is the way to go. 😂

      @@joelnert Well, I hate Pepsi -- HA! (its a little too sweet for my taste). I remember the "Pepsi Challenge" where in my neck of the woods they did it at events like fairs in hot weather; they would have the Pepsi chilled and Coke left out unrefrigerated in the sun -- but I could always taste the difference and picked the warm Coke (that did in fact taste horrid hot) over Pepsi much to their shock and dismay. This was the "real" Coke before the Great New Formula Conspiracy and subsequent foisting of Coca Cola Classic with the change to corn syrup... Such villainous plotting from both companies I can envision the mustache twisting that occurred! I myself will plot to try Pepsi with real sugar, out of revenge for them ruining the Coke of my youth and because now, thanks to your wax, I can twist my 'stache on par with Dick Dastardly!

      @@joelnert Ok, took awhile but I finally found some Pepsi "MADE WITH Real SUGAR" -- definitely better than Pepsi, or Coke for that matter, made with corn syrup. Now to compare it with Coca-Cola bottled in Mexico made with cane sugar (I used to have to go to Canada to get it with real sugar; now some local stores carry the Mexican stuff): hrmmm *twists mustache fortified with recent batch of wax in contemplation* ... similar, the Pepsi is a bit sweeter when it first hits your mouth, and the sweetness lingers more, but not cloyingly like Pepsi with corn syrup or worse: artificial sweeteners. I still would pick Coke with cane sugar as my go to cola -- I like that its not as sweet, but if I was in the mood for a sweeter soft-drink as I sometimes am, the Pepsi with real sugar isn't bad. Difference in listed added sugar: Mexican Coke at 39g per 355ml versus Pepsi at 40g "real sugar" per 355ml. Probably there's more to the formulas than that one extra gram of sugar which makes Pepsi taste sweeter to me... I think the Coke might be more carbonated, which would also lessen the perceived sweetness by adding more "bite." Need to grab my trusty 'ol Zahm & Nagel to confirm that theory! But, I have always be able to belch better (louder, longer, more disgustingly as evidenced by female reactions) with Coke versus Pepsi, so the Belch'O'Meter puts Coke at a higher level of carbonation. Just finishing up the two bottles now... Coke seems to have retained more carbonation to the end, which indicates it started with a higher CO2 concentration. Last pull here with Coke... final thoughts: *BBBBEEEEEOOOOOLLLLLLLLUUUUUUUUUUCCCCHHH!!!* Yeah, that's the stuff!

    I was researching for a cosmetic formulation and run into Lanolin and has tons of benefits and I even had it on my to buy list until I researched the bad side of it. If Lanolin works for you than is great, unfortunately it tends to trigger allergic reactions in some people and for this reason is cheaper than other other emollients.

  • @perdueal
    @perdueal 5 лет назад

    Awesome video. Using your formula, I found it to be too thin. May just be the heat hear in Houston, but it would break down really fast. I went back and did 1.5 wax, .5 lanolin, and .5 coconut oil. It takes a little longer to get it soft enough to use, but holds great in the heat. I found that hobby lobby sells empty chap-stick tubes, and they work great for holding and dispensing the wax.

Then the remaining slight odor still there when you install it in your stache dissapears in minutes. Trust me, I wouldn't make it this way if I had to smell a stench all day.

      If you want a vegan one you can't use beeswax either... But better than being religious about things, just source it from an ethical producer! Really looking forward to trying you recipe! Looks amazing! Got some beeswax from a local bee keeper, now I'll try find a local sheep herd 😊
