Captain Fawcett's Moustache Wax (line)

This British wax is easy to work and comes in scented varieties.

Not for: Men who need maximum hold in heat or humidity.

Hold strength: Match hold to length: light for tidy short mustaches, firm to strong for handlebars and curled tips. Too little hold loses shape, while too much is hard to work through short hair.
Base: Beeswax-based waxes for natural hold that washes out. Petroleum-heavy waxes can feel greasy and are harder to remove.
Workability: Warm the wax with your fingertips. A wax that does not soften this way is too stiff for daily use. Workability determines how evenly the wax distributes.
Climate: Firmer wax for hot or humid conditions. Heat softens wax and makes the tips droop.

Using hair gel or pomade as a substitute. They flake or lose hold on facial hair.
Applying wax to a wet mustache.
Overusing strong wax on a short mustache, which looks clumpy.

Use mustache wax for shaping and holding tips. Use beard balm for light conditioning and control of the whole beard.
