OK, it was actually this stuff I found on Amazon.
Great ratings and relatively inexpensive compared to some:
Natural Man by Botanical Skinworks 4 OZ
OK so before the ribbing starts...I'm not into that metro-man stuff, oils, creams, perfumes and such, but the wifey wanted me to get it so I did and it does a good job of softening up the beard and my skin isn't dry and itchy anymore. I'd never heard of beard oil two weeks ago, but I'm believer now.
