I love it for : fragrance– my beard smells good throughout the day; sheen– long-lasting, even after it dries post-shower, and it holds up to the blow dryer; softness– my hair stays nice and soft; and comb-ability– a smooth brush and comb-through right after the shower.

Our story

Made with intention. Sold with love.

Founder at the What Is That Velvet display
The maker

A passion project
worth sharing.

Some of the best things start by accident. What Is That, Velvet? came to life during COVID as a creative outlet. A few jars shared with friends turned into something nobody expected – including me. Every time someone tried it, the reaction was the same – "this feels like velvet." The name wrote itself. (If you know, you know. 👑) Now every batch is made with the same love and intention as that very first one.
