That means he doesnt wash his beard I fear 😭 also be careful beards can also carry fungus if not cared for properly coming from someone dating a man with a beard who cleans it

It could just be irritation since you’re not used to it. Ask him to wear a beard balm or oil to soften it up. Your skin should get used to it eventually tho but it’ll suck until then. Happened when I first started dating my man

First, I would check to see what products he uses to wash his beard. It could be a reaction to those. Second, I would see if your facial products don’t work with his for whatever reason and see if one of you can find something similar that won’t cause either of you to break out. Third, I would give your skin time to get used to it - sincerely, a girl with a bearded fiancé

Tell him to use some anti bacterial soap. My boyfriend uses Dial and it seems to be helping.

Yeah def see if he’d be willing to use some sort of beard product to soften it up. Duke cannon is a good brand with natural ingredients. After a few months my skin got used to it

Ugh this is also tough cause we’re very casual rn so I don’t feel like I have a real leg to stand on with asking him to change his products or anything

I completely get that! It could also just be your skin getting used to the oils on his skin. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was breaking out just a little and either isn’t thinking anything about it or just hasn’t said anything
