I, and the community to my understanding, strongly believe that the Louen Leoncour cosmetic for Grail Knight should have facial hair, even if it is just using the already modelled Kruber moustache.

Grail Knight Kruber not having facial beard is more or less canon. You can see this with the Sharkhead Cosmetic for him.
And if that doesn’t convince you, you can see his hairless face in the OE cinematic as well.
I agree Pacster. I think if the outfit is to be a true impersonation of King Louen then it should have facial hair as part of the head cosmetic. He just looks off in that outfit without it. Granted I understand that Grail Knight Kruber never had facial hair, but I do think it makes sense to add it to the Louen head cosmetic to better sell the look.
Even just a mustache would make it look significantly better.

It probably wouldn’t be too difficult to have both for those that prefer no facial hair. All they’d have to do is create some facial hair for a duplicate version of the helmet.
There’s no reason that Kruber as a Grail Knight can’t have a beard. It’s presumptuous to think his not having a beard is canonical; to me, it just looks like they chose for him not to have a beard as GK because it’s simpler design since he only had great helms up to this point; having a beard underneath would clip through. I see no reason why his beardless face should go with this outfit.
Bardin’s Outcast Engineer changes his beard from grey to brown with the new cosmetic; I wouldn’t have said it’s canonical for Bardin Engineer to have a grey beard had they made his beard grey yet again.
