Jack Black product Review

[bebosky]

I was able to sample two Jack Black products. The Face Buff Energizing Scrub and The Post Shave Cooling Gel. I want to say upfront that when I ask a company for a sample for review I not only tell them that I will be honest with review of their product but also honest with my perception of their service.

The Face Buff is supposed to be a pre shave and exfoliation product all in one. I found it to feel like I was rubbing Comet on my face. There are little pieces of what can only be desribed as sand in the product. The smell was nothing special. This retails at $17 for 3 oz. In this reporters opinion you would do much better with Old Spice High Endurance Pre Shave Soap. It is much less expensive and not so uncomfortable.

As for the Post Shave Cooling Gel it was a decent product. It is alcohol free and its main soothers are Aloe, Sage and Lavender. This retails for $17 for 3.3 oz.

As for Jack Black's service they did send me a few small samples and for that I thank them. However, they were a bit perturbed that someone had spoken less than glowingly about their product on of the two boards I post at. I told them that that was the beauty of the internet. Individuals can write honestly and these are written by folks who are actually into shaving. One other note:Jack Black was very concerned that I know that their products weren't made for anything other than cartridge razors. Well, I used a Mach 3 Turbo.

So overall I would say that the Jack Black line ( at least the two products that I tested) is average. The face Buff was horribly scratchy. The Post Shave Gel was decent.

Customer Service Grade: C
Product Grade: C
Overall: C

I hope this helps some of you shaving freaks!

So you contacted this company, asked for free samples of their products and then told them you were going to be writing less than favorable reviews on the internet? Ha ha! If I was the person you talked to, I'd be a little concerned about sending you the product too.
