七宝美髯丹：具有补肾元、乌须发、延龄益寿的功效。
配方组成：赤白何首乌（选用重量超过一斤的，红白各一枚。用竹刀刮去外皮，切成大片，与黑豆一同蒸晒九次后，去掉黑豆）、川牛膝（去除苗头，八两，与何首乌、黑豆一同蒸晒，切片焙干）、补骨脂（八两，与黑芝麻同炒至无爆裂声为度，去掉黑芝麻）、赤白茯苓（去皮，红白各八两，捣成粗末，白色茯苓用人乳拌蒸，红色茯苓用牛乳拌蒸）、菟丝子（淘洗干净，酒蒸一夜，隔水煮二炷香的时间，捣碎成丝状做成饼，焙干取净末，八两）、当归（去除梢部，酒洗洁净，切片晒干时避免见火，取净重八两）、枸杞子（八两，捣碎晒干）。
制法与用法：将上述药材共研为细末，用炼过的白蜜制成丸药，大小如龙眼核。每日清晨、午前及临睡前，分别用盐汤、沸水、温酒送服一丸。服药期间忌食莱菔（萝卜）、猪血、发酵食品及醋。
乌金丹：用于染须，可使黑色持久。
制法：取一块优质的清烟墨，嵌入大红色的凤仙花茎中，将挖下的部分重新掩盖包扎好，外面涂上泥巴，若有花朵则摘除，不让其结籽。等待两个多月后，从泥土中取出。再将青柿子去蒂，镂空后填入墨块，将柿蒂重新掩盖包扎好，埋入马粪中七天七夜，收藏在铅盒中。使用时用龟尿研磨涂抹，则黑色能透入须根，一个月不会变白。此法不损伤胡须。
取龟尿的方法：用三脚竹架顶起乌龟腹部，使其双脚悬空不着地，无法扒动。将其置于大盆中，以承接其尿液。将猪唾液湿润，蘸取麝香细末，捻入乌龟鼻孔，尿液即会流出。或者用麝香捻成纸条燃烧冒烟熏其鼻子，尿液也会流出。
赤金散：用于染须，色泽黑润且不干燥，长期使用不伤胡须。
配方组成：红铜落（打红铜器时落下的碎屑，用滚水淘洗干净，在铜勺中与米醋同炒七次，每料用量为三钱）、川五倍子（形状像菱角的为佳，碎成豆粒大小，筛去粉末，在无油的锅内炒制，先出现赤色烟，再出现黑色烟时即呈泥状；若炒不透则颜色不黑，若炒过头则胡须变绿，关键在于火候得当。将湿的青布一方包裹，压入地下结成块状，每料用量为一两）、何首乌（干燥者碎为粗末，炒黑保留药性，忌接触铁器）、枯矾（三钱）、没石子（碎成米粒大小，用醋拌匀，炒黑保留药性）。
制法与用法：以上五味药，各自研成极细末，加入飞面（过筛的面粉）三钱混合均匀。每次使用二三钱，根据胡须多少而定。使用时每钱药粉中加入食盐一厘，用浓煎的茶浆调成稀糊状。隔水炖煮，待气味像枣香一样，光泽如漆时，再搅拌均匀。先将肥皂洗净胡须上的油腻并擦干，趁热用刷子涂抹，稍冷则不易上色。用手指捏住胡须，细细碾匀抹开。涂完后用纸覆盖，早晨起来用温水洗净。连续使用两三个晚上，胡须就会黑亮如漆。半个月后，若须根逐渐变白，只需少量按上述方法调和涂抹在白根上，黑色部分不必再染。
又一方：若无没石子和何首乌，可用青盐三钱、细辛一钱替代。
Qibao Meiran Dan (Seven-Treasure Beard-Beautifying Pill): Tonifies the Kidney Yuan (Original Qi), darkens beard and hair, prolongs life, and benefits longevity.
Ingredients: Chi Bai Heshouwu (Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata) (Select those weighing over one jin; use equal parts of red and white varieties. Scrape off the skin with a bamboo knife, slice into large pieces, steam and sun-dry together with black soybeans nine times, then discard the black soybeans). Chuan Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix) (Remove the sprouts, eight liang. Steam and sun-dry together with Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata and black soybeans, slice and bake). Buguzhi (Psoraleae Fructus) (Eight liang. Stir-fry together with Sesami Nigris Semen until no popping sound is heard, then discard the sesame seeds). Chi Bai Fuling (Poria) (Remove the skin, eight liang each for red and white varieties. Crush into coarse powder. For the white variety, mix with human milk and steam; for the red variety, mix with cow milk and steam). Tusizi (Cuscutae Semen) (Wash clean, steam in wine overnight, boil in water for the time it takes two incense sticks to burn, crush into silk-like strands, form into cakes, bake dry, and take the pure powder, eight liang). Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (Remove the tips, wash clean with wine, slice and sun-dry avoiding fire, take the pure weight of eight liang). Gouqizi (Lycii Fructus) (Eight liang, crush and sun-dry).
Preparation and Administration: Grind all ingredients into a fine powder. Form pills using refined white honey, sized like longan seeds. Chew one pill daily in the morning before noon and before bed, taken with salt water, boiling water, or warm wine respectively. Avoid consuming radish (Raphani Fructus), pig blood, fermented foods, and vinegar.
Wujin Dan (Black Gold Pill): Used for dyeing beard black, providing long-lasting color.
Preparation: Take a piece of high-quality Qingyan ink. Embed it into the stem of a large red Impatiens balsamina flower. Re-cover the hollowed-out area and tie it securely. Coat with mud. Remove any flowers to prevent seed formation. Wait for more than two months, then retrieve from the soil. Take a green persimmon, remove the calyx, hollow it out, and insert the ink block. Re-cover the calyx and bury it in horse manure for seven days and nights. Store in a lead box. To use, grind with turtle urine and apply. The blackness penetrates the hair root and does not fade for a month. This method does not damage the beard.
Method for obtaining turtle urine: Support the turtle's abdomen with a three-legged bamboo stand so its feet do not touch the ground and it cannot move. Place it in a large basin to catch the urine. Moisten pig saliva, dip it in fine musk powder, and rub it into the turtle's nostrils; urine will flow. Alternatively, roll musk into a paper strip, burn it to produce smoke, and熏 (fumigate) the nose; urine will also flow.
Chijin San (Red Gold Powder): Used for dyeing beard, resulting in a black, moist, non-drying finish that does not damage the beard with long-term use.
Ingredients: Hongtongluo (Red Copper Filings) (Filings from beaten red copper vessels, washed clean with boiling water. Stir-fry in a copper spoon with rice vinegar seven times. Dosage: three qian per batch). Chuan Wubeizi (Chinese Gall) (Those shaped like water chestnuts are best. Crush to bean-sized particles, remove dust. Stir-fry in an oil-free pan until red smoke appears, followed by black smoke, forming a paste-like consistency. If not fully cooked, it won't be black; if overcooked, the beard turns green. Proper heat control is crucial. Wrap in a wet blue cloth, press underground to form a block. Dosage: one liang per batch). Heshouwu (Polygoni Multiflori Radix) (Dry variety, crushed into coarse powder. Stir-fry until black but retaining medicinal properties. Avoid contact with iron tools). Kufan (Alumen Exsiccatum) (Three qian). Moshizi (Magnetitum / Hematite - Note: Context suggests a mineral used for coloring, often interpreted as Magnetite or similar iron ore in historical contexts, but literally "Stone without Stone" or specific local mineral. Given the context of "blackening", it likely refers to a specific iron-containing mineral or processed stone. In modern TCM pharmacopoeia, this term is rare/obsolete, often substituted or referring to specific local minerals. We will translate descriptively based on function). *Correction*: "Mo Shizi" usually refers to Magnetitum (Ci Shi) or sometimes specific iron ores used in external applications. However, strictly following the text, we list it as Moshizi. Let's stick to the literal entity extraction.
Preparation and Administration: Grind the above five herbs into extremely fine powders. Mix with Feimian (Sifted Wheat Flour) three qian. Use two to three qian per application, depending on the amount of beard. For every qian of powder, add one li of salt. Mix with thick brewed tea slurry to form a thin paste. Heat in a double boiler until it smells like jujube and shines like lacquer. Stir well. First, wash the beard with soap to remove grease and dry it. Apply while hot using a brush; if it cools, it won't darken properly. Pinch the beard with fingers and knead the mixture evenly into the hairs. Cover with paper after application. Wash with warm water the next morning. Continue for two to three nights for a shiny black result. After half a month, if roots turn white, apply a small amount only to the white roots as described. Do not re-dye black areas.
Alternative Formula: If Moshizi and Heshouwu are unavailable, substitute with Qingyan (Green Rock Salt) three qian and Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) one qian.
