Is it dandruff what appears in my beard? Find out what those white flakes that appear on your face when you grow a 5-day beard are.

Have you ever noticed those white flakes that appear on your beard when you let it grow a little? Have you wondered if it is dandruff or something else? Are you worried that it will affect your image and your health? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this article is for you.

At Backture Organics, we are experts in men's skin care, and we know that skin peeling is a very common and annoying problem that affects many men. Therefore, we want to explain to you what those white flakes are, why they occur and how you can avoid and treat them.

What are those white flakes that appear on your face when you grow a 5-day beard?

Those white flakes that appear on your face when you grow a 5-day beard are not dandruff, but rather dead skin that comes off from the most superficial layer of the epidermis. Dandruff, on the other hand, is a scalp condition that is due to an imbalance in the skin's microbiome, which causes inflammation, excess oil and more intense and yellowish peeling.

Peeling of the skin under the beard is a natural and normal process that occurs throughout the body, but is more visible in the facial area due to the contrast with the hair. In addition, a beard can make it difficult for the skin to breathe, clogging pores and making it difficult to remove dead cells, which accumulate and form those white flakes that bother you so much.

Peeling skin under your beard is not serious or contagious, but it can be uncomfortable and unsightly, and may indicate that your skin needs more care and attention.

How to care for the skin under a short beard?

The good news is that peeling skin under a short beard can be prevented and treated with the right habits and products. Here we give you some practical and simple tips to take care of the skin under your beard and avoid white flakes:

• Wash your beard with a soft and natural cleansing gel, such as RESET, which cleans, hydrates and nourishes the skin and, in turn, the beard with 100% natural and organic ingredients, such as lemon, cedar, lavender hydrolate or grapefruit. Apply to damp skin and beard, massage gently and rinse with warm water. Repeat every day, in the morning and at night.

• Moisturize the skin with a nourishing serum for men that penetrates the deepest layers of the skin, even with the presence of hair. It regenerates and protects the skin with 100% natural and organic ingredients, such as sesame oil, pomegranate seed, St. John's wort or jojoba. Apply it to clean, dry short beard, giving a gentle circular massage. Repeat every day, morning and night.

• Exfoliate the skin once a week, with a gentle and natural product, to remove dead cells, impurities and excess oil from the skin. You can create a homemade scrub by mixing a little organic honey and brown sugar, apply the paste to damp skin, massage with circular movements and rinse with warm water.

• Avoid using chemicals or irritants for your beard or skin, and opt for natural and organic products, such as those from Backture Organics, which respect the balance and health of your skin and the environment. They do not contain parabens, sulfates, silicones, alcohol, artificial fragrances or petroleum derivatives.

• Control stress by practicing relaxation techniques, such as meditation, yoga, deep breathing or mindfulness, which will help you reduce tension, anxiety and inflammation, and improve mood and skin health.

• Eat a balanced and healthy diet, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds and water, which will provide you with the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and hydration that your skin needs to be healthy and beautiful. Because the skin not only reflects the outside, but also the inside of your body.

By following these tips, you can take care of the skin under your beard and avoid peeling and white flakes that are so uncomfortable and unaesthetic.

In addition, you can enjoy a soft, juicy and hydrated beard, along with healthy and attractive skin.
