Jack Black launches oil-control toner

US-based skincare brand Jack Black has expanded its facial products portfolio with the launch of Oil-Control Toner.

The new product is an antioxidant-rich formula made using a red macroalgae, witch-hazel, salicylic acid and lactic acid. It is dermatologist-tested and has not been tested on animals.

Red macroalgae is said to regulate sebum production and protect the skin against pollution, while witch-hazel is claimed to dissolve pore-clogging residues.

Salicylic acid and lactic acid help reduce blackheads and exfoliate dead skin cells.

Jack Black co-founder Curran Dandurand said: “As a brand whose legacy is rooted in advanced, luxury products for men, our new toner is a natural and most welcomed extension to our current facial skincare offerings.

“Men’s facial skin tends to be oilier and thicker than women’s, so when we saw a need for a product like this, we knew it had to come from us.”

The formula is claimed to be fragrance-free, suitable for vegans, and free from parabens and alcohol. It is currently available for $25 at Jack Black’s online store.

Established in 2000, Jack Black offers a range of products in men’s skincare market across the US. The company’s skincare brands include deep-dive glycolic facial cleanser and clean-break oil-free moisturiser.
