hand-crafted since 2013

Made with conifer resin for firm hold and woodsy, masculine scent.

Simple. Rugged. Effective.

Pure local beeswax. Coconut oil without any additives. And the secret to Uncle Norman's success: the firm hold and great scent that comes from hand-harvested conifer sap and juniper berries.

The solid conifer resin is melted to a bubbling, aromatic syrup. Crushed juniper berries are added. The sap is boiled over an open flame, allowing the different scents to mingle. The refined sap is filtered twice, removing any bark or wood fibers.
The beeswax and coconut oil are melted slowly, taking care to keep the temperature down to preserve the delicate scent of the wax. Then the refined conifer sap and juniper oil is blended in. The Moustache Tamer is poured, cooled and ready to use!

From tree to tin.

Since 2013, I’ve been making my wax with the same ingredients, techniques and recipe. Because it works.

I’ve tried expensive European waxes, hair pomades, gels, creams...none of them worked quite the way I wanted them to.
So I began experimenting at home to create the product that I was looking for: a firm-holding wax with a natural smell and matte finish. After a lot of trial and error, I created the formula that I use today.
