Shave and Beard Care
This is the men's shaving and beard care I actually use every morning, the stuff that turned shaving from a chore into something I do not dread. From a conditioning shave and a rich sandalwood shaving cream to a calming after shave balm, a nourishing...
I switched to this the day I got tired of nicking myself every morning. It goes on clear so I can actually see my jawline and edges while I shave, and my skin never feels raw after. One bottle lasts me months.
Jack Black Beard Lube Conditioning Shave
My beard used to feel like straw by the afternoon and the skin under it would get itchy and flaky. A few drops of this in the morning and that is gone. It absorbs fast so I am not walking around with a greasy face.
Jack Black Beard Oil
This one is my going out pick. It does the same conditioning job as my everyday oil but the sweet tobacco scent lingers all night, so I skip cologne when I use it. People ask what I am wearing.
18.21 Man Made Sweet Tobacco Beard Hair and Skin Oil
I would use this as the last morning skin care step when I want daily moisture and sun protection without layering two separate products. It supports the face care routine, while the cleanser and targeted treatments keep their own clear jobs.

Skin and Face Care
Good men's skincare does not have to be complicated, and this is the simple face care routine that cleared up my oily skin. A daily facial cleanser and an oil control face wash keep shine down, a moisturizer with SPF handles hydration and sun in one ...
I have oily skin and most face washes either did nothing or left me tight and dry. This one clears the shine and grime without that squeaky over cleaned feeling, and it doubles as a light toner so I skip a step.
Jack Black Pure Clean Daily Facial Cleanser
By midday my forehead used to look like a mirror. I keep this at the sink for mornings when I know it is going to be a long hot day and it keeps the oil in check for hours. Gentle enough that I use it daily.
Clinique For Men Oil Control Face Wash
This is the one product I tell every guy to buy. Moisturizer and sunscreen in one so I actually remember to wear SPF, it goes on light with no white cast, and it sits fine under a shave. I have repurchased it more times than I can count.
Jack Black Double Duty Face Moisturizer SPF 20
Hair Styling and Body
This is the men's hair styling and body care I reach for after a shower, the products that give me control without the crunchy wet look. A matte fiber, a clay pomade, and a forming cream cover every style I want, and an energizing hair and body wash ...
This is my everyday hair guy. It gives me a strong hold with a matte finish so my hair looks thick and styled but not wet or crunchy, and I can restyle it later in the day with damp hands. A little goes a long way.
American Crew Fiber
When I want a cleaner more polished look I use this instead of the fiber. It molds my hair into place with a natural low shine and holds all day without getting stiff. Washes out easy at night so there is no buildup.
Baxter of California Clay Pomade
For days I want my hair softer and more moveable this is what I grab. It gives a medium hold with a bit of shine and never flakes, so it works whether my hair is air dried or blown out. This is the one I hand to anyone learning to style their hair.
American Crew Forming Cream
I got tired of juggling three bottles in the shower so this became my one wash for hair and body. The eucalyptus and rosemary wake me up in the morning and it rinses clean without drying my skin. The big bottle lasts me ages.
Jack Black Turbo Wash Energizing Cleanser
This lives in my gym bag. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash in one bottle so I am not packing my whole shelf for a workout or a trip, and the tea tree leaves my scalp feeling clean and tingly. Simple and it just works.
