The Internet Reacts to Sydney Sweeney Selling Her Bathwater: 'That's Disgusting! Where?'

Since October 2024, when Sydney Sweeney was featured taking a glamorous bath in a promotional campaign for Dr. Squatch’s body wash, her fans have been intrigued about the extent of her brand collaborations. Recently, it’s become clear that Sweeney is fully committed to leveraging her image for business, as evidenced by her latest project. The star of "Euphoria" and "Madame Web" is once again partnering with Dr. Squatch, this time to create a soap that purportedly includes her very own bathwater. Indeed, you heard it correctly.

A Unique Product Launch

Sweeney announced on her Instagram, “After your curiosity about my bathwater post-@drsquatch ad… we decided to save it. Let me introduce Sydney’s Bathwater Bliss! This very real, limited-edition soap actually contains my bathwater.” The internet’s reaction was swift, with the product limited to just 5,000 bars at this stage. Online comments ranged from skeptical to amused. One Reddit user explained, “Legally, you can’t sell sanitary products unless they’re clean, so it must just be a marketing ploy. Though I guess she might have chosen the fragrance.”

Others speculated on the production details. “I’m just picturing her having to siphon the bathwater into sealed buckets for collection and transport to a soap manufacturing site,” pondered a Redditor. Another joked, “No way, she probably just bathes directly at the factory.”

Some took a more analytical approach, calculating the logistics. “If it’s limited to 5,000 bars, then using about 2 oz of water per bar, it might only require one bath, given a bathtub holds around 302 liters,” someone calculated.

Despite this, many doubted the claim’s authenticity. “There’s no chance it actually contains bathwater,” a commenter argued, “It’s a gimmick by a brand known for outlandish marketing claims.”

Debating the Merits of Celebrity Brand Deals

The discussion also touched on Sweeney’s strategic approach to brand partnerships, a tactic she has openly embraced since gaining fame. “Is she just addicted to the hustle, or struggling financially?” one person speculated. Yet, another highlighted the transient nature of celebrity today, noting, “There aren’t true movie stars anymore. Celebrities like her have to capitalize quickly before the next big thing arrives.”

Some questioned the wisdom of this move. “It seems like something a washed-up celebrity would do, not a current star,” one comment read, while another countered, “This D-lister strategy with A-list appeal might just rake in a lot more money.”

Nevertheless, many fans endorsed Sweeney’s business acumen. “She’s smart and knows her audience well,” a supporter mentioned. Others saw the humor in her approach, “Why not make money off fans? It’s quite amusing,” and another predicted, “With all the eccentrics out there, she’s going to make a fortune.”

With only a few thousand bars available, the novelty soap is likely to become a sought-after item, though some fans humorously predicted misuse, referencing pop culture jokes and quipping, “People are going to eat the soap, aren’t they?”

Availability and Anticipation

For those eager to own a piece of this unique item, Sydney’s Bathwater Bliss will be available for purchase starting June 6 on Dr. Squatch’s website.

In the end, the conversation around Sydney Sweeney’s latest venture reveals much about modern celebrity culture and the innovative, sometimes bizarre ways stars engage with their fanbase. Whether it’s seen as a clever marketing stunt or a bizarre product choice, it certainly has people talking.
