Default Every Man Jack

[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']Hello All, [/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']So I’m new to wet shaving and I’m still in my experimental phase of trying different soaps & creams to get the right match. I was in Target the other day looking to pick up some Proraso that I’ve heard you all talk about so much, and come to find out they no longer carry it. Bummer. But... I noticed that they carry a line of products called Every Man Jack that is sold exclusively at Target. Thought I would check with you all and see if anyone has tried it? And if so, how you liked it? I received a free sample of Truefitt & Hill in the mail and I loved the shaving cream. The problem is, its $30 a tub so if I can find a product that’s cheaper and works just as good I will go with that. [/font]

I have tried Proraso, and a couple of the Momma Bear soaps, and the Proraso is hands down better. Maybe its just the difference between soaps and creams, but I can not get the same quality lather from the soap that I can get from the Proraso. My Proraso lather could probably sit there all day. The soap lather, especially the second pass lather, tends to dry up pretty quick. The only drawback to the Proraso is if you don't like the smell. I do like the smell, and I will be ordering a few more tubes of it soon.

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.
