Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: M&F Brad Sears L7 Tigris Finest Badger
Cream: Jack Black Supreme Cream
Razor:Merkur Mergress
Blade: Vintage NOS Gillette Spoiler (3)
Post: Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel; Floid Mentally Vigorous
Scent: Parfums de Marly Gallaway EdP

I always thought of Jack Black as a cosmetics specialist. I am a long-time fan of their Pit Boss deodorant, but never gave much thought to their shaving cream.
I received a couple of samples of the cream in orders from Mensbiz, and was impressed, so pulled the trigger. And I must say - this cream is a serious contender! You don't need to use much, and it has a delightful delicate fresh rose scent.
Performance is excellent - very slick and comfortable, allowing close blade contact for improved efficiency. Also good residual slickness for touch-ups. Three passes for an effortless BBS result.

Pre: Hot water
Razor: Mühle R95 birch-bark Rocca
Blade: Polsilver SI
Brush: Yaqi 26mm rainbow Pony
Soap: Noble Otter Rawr
Post: Shower, Nivea Balm

Just realised this morning that I hadn't tried a Polsilver in the Rocca yet, with preference going to the Gillette 7OC Yellows. An incredibly mild shave, so smooth it's almost like there's no blade in. But no trouble getting to a DSBBS in 3 lazy passes. Sometimes I'm on the fence about Rawr, other days (like today) it's the perfect summer scent. And no, it does not smell like ARKO.
