My go-to face wash
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
I've used a number of face scrubs/cleansers over the years but have had issues with breaking out. This Marlowe cleanser smells great, lathers well, and most importantly, doesn't cause me to break out. I've been using this consistently for over a year and will continue to do so. Great product.

More of a travel kit
Size: 4 Piece Set
I love this stuff. Smells great makes my beard soft and my skin not itchy/flaky. The beard Shave loom is by far the best shaving cream loop that i've ever used. These bottles are Really small and would work really well as a travel kit. But Jack black's products are fantastit's . just do it. stop, what are you waiting for.

Not that Jack Black!
Size: 4 Piece Set
I bought this set assuming it was the actor/musician Jack Black’s skincare line. I figured a bearded celebrity would know all about quality beard care products. But actually it is not even named after a real person, it’s just a brand name. In fact, Jack Black the celebrity said he tried Jack Black products and they gave him a rash! Not a big deal though. I haven’t had such a reaction. The products smell fine, not overbearing, and seem to be working well. Cons: not exactly economical since it’s very small tubes. The beard oil pump is easy to overdo— Press too hard on the pump and you’ll end up with too much oil on your hands. A little goes a long way.
