Here's your video game-themed promotional hygiene products, /v/.
>>733629382>peach>not peach flavoredEVERYFUCKINGTIME
Batman bros, why does Nintendo keep leaving us out of Mario Kart?
>>733629490>flavored
>>733629490You're not supposed to drink shower gel, anon.
>>733629497Peach took one look at gotham and said "I'm not racing in that shithole" so Batman got uninvited.
>>733629490Do you eat soap?
>>733629382what do stars smell like
>>733629557Clearly we need bowser to kidnap peach so in her absence the Gotham cup can be approved by toadsworth
>>733629490
>>733629382>BIGGER* IS BETTER
>>733629382>marketed at Nintendo fans>body wash soap
I considered getting one of these but the scent names didn't give me confidence so I stuck with my tried and tested Fiji
>>733629652I choose to interpret this maymay as implying peach is into giant men or size growth like Mario does with Mushrooms
>>733629382Why do these products always have such unhelpful descriptions of their scents? Black Cherry and Nightfall? What the fuck is nightfall supposed to smell like? How is the Citrus Celestial? How do Vanilla Sands smell different than just Vanilla? How am I supposed to be enticed by the claim that something smells like Star Showers? I have no frame of reference for that at all. The only one that comes close to making sense is Smashed Fruit. Whole fruits don't tend to smell much, and the word smashed implies an additional level of intensity, but it still doesn't tell you what kind of fruit it's supposed to be. Citrus? Watermelon? Berries? Apples? Peaches? There's nothing to prime your expectations and motivate you to grab the bottle off the shelf.
Is "body wash" like... soap?As in, if I wash my body with cheap grocery store body wash, will it be as clean/hygienic/killsgerms as using a bar of soap? Because whenever I see it in stores body wash always says "soap free" on it.t. 38 y/o boomer, using soap bars all my life
>>733629490Ignoring the fact this retard is concerned with the taste of his body wash, has Peach ever had a character tie-in food or drink or anything that was actually peach flavored, besides the Kung Fu Tea collab? The 90s soda gave her cherry flavor but she was also still called Princess Toadstool back then.Even at Nintendo World she's just broadly associated with cakes and sweets.
>>733629382i'd use the Luigi one but use the Peach one specifically for my anus
>>733629851just pop it open and have a sniff
>>733629382>scent of smashed fruitThat sounds terrible
>>733630000Soap free body wash is specifically for skin that soap might be too harsh on for regular use. If you're going into fucking mines or rolling around in the mud all day yeah use soap but if you just hang out in an office and don't want to rip all the oils off your body all the time sometimes a milder soap is better.tldr yes a body wash is soap in the conventional sense of you can use it to get clean but not in the true chemical sense of the term, like how white chocolate isn't really chocolate.
>>733629382What do Star Showers smell like?
>>733629382POWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAH that's right.
>>733630207bags of milk
>>733630015Also just remembered the Mario/Peach pizza decided to represent her as ham with triple cheese. Mario's shared pizza with Luigi is triple salami so they're really leaning into the innuendo.
>>733629382
>>733629382HOLY SHIT BATMAN IS IN THE NEW MARIO MOVIE?
>>733629382The Bowser Jr. one smells pretty good ngl.
gonna use the peach one to wash my balls
The Mario one is actually really good I almost wish Old Spice would keep it around after the promo period ends.
>>733630973whats it taste like
am I the only one that finds those LCD price tags to be kinda dystopian? Something about them just makes the entire store feel off-putting
>>733631475Repulsive.
>>733629851I don't think you understand when it comes to Old Spice and their scents.
>>733629382is this for children? why would kids want to smell like oldspice?
>>733631687>Eaglefangs
>>733631775Manchildren
>>733630000>38you're one in a million of drooling retards that made it this long without walking into traffic or falling down a manhole. not longer than 100 years ago you wouldn't have made it to puberty, that's how retarded you are.
>>733630446Read that as Ham Plastic.
>>733629382Why did tendies let nintendo get away with what they did to peach? They shit all over everyone else for pozzed garbage, but when nintendo does it they ignore or defend it and continue to act like nintendo is not doing pozzed garbage. It's a mystery.
>>733629382Milennial infantilism is getting a little out of hand. This is a stark reminder of how shitty and demeaning the 90s and early 00s were with how heavy handed marketing and branding was.
>>733632225They didn't have body wash 100 years ago
>>733632124Actually smells pretty good. Second only to Mam Baking
>>733630482>futanari memeNice.
Do you guys think that yoshi's egg smells like brooklyn bounce haha
>>733632320Disrespect for Toriyama?
>>733629382Why does Mario and Luigi look normal but Peach looks like that? Why can't they ever just make a normal fuckin movie.
>>733629783I'm not sure if you're aware but you can just flip the lid open and smell it before you buy it
>No bad-hygiene Smash player quips in herebunch of redditors in here
>>733632320That phone has a good camera.
>>733632498Leftists think she is too pretty so made her face round like that, looks off-putting and stupid. Like Maria in Silent Hill 2 Remake.
>>733629382Yea.
>>733632713you need to update your bantersmash players are known to be pedos, the stench is old news
>>733629382>Body + Face washIsn't this just regular soap? What's the difference between washing your body with this vs your regular soap bar?
>>733629382Hello, ladies, look-a at your man, now back-a to me, now back-a at your man, now back-a to me. Sadly, he isn’t-a me, Mario! But if he-a stopped using ladies scented body wash and-a switched to Old Spice, he could-a smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are-a you? You’re-a on Daisy Cruiser with-a the man your man could smell like. What’s in your hand, back-a at me. I have it, it’s a ?-Block with-a two tickets to that-a thing you love. Look again, the tickets are-a now coins. Anything is-a possible when your man smells-a like Old Spice and not a lady. I’m-a on a Yoshi. WAHOO!
>>733629851they all smell good enough to not care, just pick one and be happy your armpits don't smell bad any more
>>733629851>trying to apply logic to marketingdon't be a nonce
>>733631687>he doesn't want to smell like an elklord
>>733631687>we got old spice x inscryption crossover before haloIt's not fair bros
>>733631687I like the forest wood smelling one
>>733631775Nintendo fans are 75% Disney adults. They're buying mario tennis for 70 bucks and 2 gameboy rooms for 40. Kids don't like Nintendo enough to want that shit.
>>733632813Owie, right in my nostalgia!
the only soap smell that actually seems to stick to me is irish spring
>>733631687For me, it's sharkhammer.
>>733629382>$9 for some body wash I get bottles of body wash at the dollar store for $2.Fuck off
>>733633914$2 poorfag shampoo doesn't even taste good
>>733629382Showering makes my skin feels ickyCan't understand how people can do it more than once a month
>>733629382>the nintendo tax affects even shampoo
>>733629382I remember when our first leaks for this movie were these luigi and yoshi old spices
>>733629382what does star showers smell like
>>733629382>50% BIGGER is betterI agree
>>733633979Sure it does
>>733631775Don't know about those in particular but the usual old spice soaps all smell very different. Setting the goofy names aside just try smelling them in a store if you want, everyone has their own personal preference. Or of course look for other brands if you don't care for those. It's just marketing gimmicks. At least it might encourage some nasty people to actually shower.
do they have normal equivalent of these scents to sell afterwards or are people suppose to get attached to a scent and then just be shit out of luck in six months. Do people change soaps like its a soda flavor?
>>733629382>9 USD for 24 oz of shampoo>>733633914>18 oz for $1.25What's the catch?
>>733633073Only savages use soap for their face
>>733634730>are people suppose to get attached to a scent and then just be shit out of luck in six months.yeah
>>733629507>>733629531>>733629576>>733629665>>733630015you guys only clean the outsides of your bodies?
>>733629382>for Nintendo fans>body wash soap
>>733629382>LuigiVanilla >YoshiFruits>PeachCitrus>MarioWhatever the hell stars are supposed to smell like. I appreciate the fun of giving it a creative name that also fits with what it's trying to promote but they need to be more descriptive with the name so you know what you're actually buying
>Batman is a dollar cheaper
>>733630015Technically, in Smash, her final smash summons peaches which can be eaten for health, so if you put Sakurai in charge of merch he would have given her peach-flavoured something.
>>733629382and smashfags still won't buy it
>>733635301Nintendo tax
>>733633914Smash fags don't even buy shampoo.
>old spiceI remember using that in high school because I didn't know any better. These days I treat myself with some nice malin and goetz bodywash
>>733635602old spice knows their market well

>>733629382I tried (((old spice))) deodorant stick once and it gave me massive, cracked wounds and redness, with posterior darkened skin and more painful cracking and wet wounds, and it took weeks for that shit to heal and the scars lasted for months.
>>733632320Man when Japan does /v/ claps like the little seals you are. I see people here glazing shitty twitter ads for fast food or american brands they'd be crying over as 'soulless' (they're all soulless retard) because they collabed with a random fucking anime or dog toy from their childhood.

>>733629731This isn't marketed at anybody it's advertisement.
For me? It's Old Spice Krakengard body wash and shampoo.
>>733629382OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAH NINTENDO TAKE MY MONEY RIGHT THE FUCK NOW I'LL TAKE... EVERYTHING YOU HAVE, INCLUDING THE WAREHOUSE! OH, I ALSO BOUGHT ALL THE ROMS FOR $20, FOR ALL LANGUAGES!

OK but real talk The epic legend old spice shower gel is really good
>>733647441zestiest post in this thread
>>733642272>Why are wolfthorn and krakengard a cheaper unit price?Algorithmic pricing. Price goes up until sales decline, price goes down until sales increase.
>>733645948I do but it's because I have weird and severe skin allergies so I only want to use things that I know for sure don't trigger them
>>733629851Do yourself a favor and don't ever shop at Bath & Body Works if you hate this because all of their descriptions are like that.The men's scents at B&BW are all excellent, by the way - far better selection of actually pleasing scents that aren't overpowered nonsense.

>>733636681I remember I tried a different Old Spice deodorant flavor and it made my armpits get eczema or something and the wounds just tore more and more the more I walked. Was genuinely fucking miserable.
I use Old Spice unironically. Is it actually that bad? I never actually noticed. What brand for body wash, shampoo, and deodorant should I use?
>>733641882will i turn into a cute girl if i use women’s soap? asking for a friend
>>733641882>>733643890It's the same fillers and petroleum derived detergent they use for men's body wash. It's not going to give you gynecomastia or alter the pH of your skin. All that copy about being especially formulated for women's skin is bullshit they aren't required to substantiate at all because it's subjective and there's zero hard science suggesting that the soap you use has any meaningful impact on your skin as long as you use a reasonable amount of it and it doesn't contain any poisons or heavy metals that would get absorbed through your skin.The only thing that actually makes a difference is Pyrithione Zinc in anti-dandruff shampoo. It's a mild antifungal that kills the fungus that causes most cases of dandruff. And they expect both men and women to use that stuff if they need it.I personally like to buy actual soap, fat that's gone through a saponification reaction in the presence of lye. Detergents are a little too harsh on my skin and put my sebaceous glands into overdrive causing infected pores. But most people have no problem with that.
>>733653046>flavorWhy do you retards keep saying this
>>733630000I wanted to call you retarded, but then you got quads so I actually agree with you now.
>You now remember when normalfags tried to wage a 10-year war on AXE products because they came packaged with a gamer aesthetic and appealed to nerdy boys, by trying to inextricably associate their brand with frat douches and rolling it into the intersectional war on pre-W3 internet culture, then tried to walk away whistling when it failed
>>733629851I use their "Nightpanther" deodorant, chicks dig it
>>733630000Soap and detergent are two different things that more or less achieve the same goal. That bar of "soap" you buy might actually be detergent suspended in a soluble substrate. And liquid soap might actually be soap that's liquified by the addition of chemicals that suspend it in a gel form.The biggest difference is that soap is made from fat, animal fat, vegetable fat, it doesn't matter. That fat gets subjected to what's called a saponification reaction with a basic chemical like lye. This makes the fat into a surfactant, a molecule with a polar side and a nonpolar side. This property makes it naturally arrange into sequestering droplets called micelles that allow nonpolar substances to be suspended and washed away by water, which is a polar solvent.Detergents, in common usage, are generally synthetic chemicals usually ultimately derived from petroleum products which achieve their surfactant properties through a much larger range of chemical reactions.Neither is substantially worse than the other by default, but actual soap is probably better for the environment and can be easier on sensitive skin without additives, assuming the correct ratio of fat to lye is used. Detergents are a lot cheaper to manufacture, though, so they like to position them as superior, more desirable products, even though they often aren't. Or otherwise implicitly convince you that you're buying soap when you aren't. Really, you should just look for a product you like, that doesn't irritate your skin and doesn't rip you off. A good, locally made soap is going to cost more, but it might be worth it depending on your priorities. But an expensive detergent selling itself on the back of a bunch of marketing jargon is never worth it.
>>733629382No Toad, no buy.
>>733653157>I use Old Spice unironically.I only use it "ironically," because I'm also a fucking idiot that doesn't know what words mean.
>>733656307People hated AXE because it smelled like the factory they made it in, and retarded teenagers were using entire cans of that shit in place of taking an actual shower, so you got accosted by a cloud of nostril burning pure essential oils with an undercurrent of rancid pit-stink any time one of those assholes walked by.The real problem with AXE is that it popularized spray-on deodorants and their marketing actively encouraged young men with filthy lifestyles to use it in excess instead of actually showering.

>>733661346There were literally AXE body spray commercials showing guys not having time to shower and using the product instead. They weren't promoting better hygiene, they were trying to sell as much shit as they could. And getting teenage boys to waste entire cans in an obnoxious game of clout chicken with other teenage boys suited Unilever just fine. They did not give a shit if anyone but the target audience liked AXE products as long as the marketing was still working on the people they wanted it to, and getting them to massively overuse it, too.

>>733629382Those products are for stoner loser types, the Jeremies and Andies of the world. The types with white guy dreadlocks, tattoos of video games, and who wear weird clothing like pic related being taken grocery shopping by exhausted grandparents in their mid and late 20s. They get into frequent arguments over trivial bullshit and start fights online and just generally fail at everything. I know you know the archetype I am describing. They collect Funko Pops and try to sell used PS5s with a custom faceplate but that don't work for $500.
