Dr. Squatch Call of Duty soaps — Dr Squatch

Few companies feature promotions that are more fun than the ones cooked up by the folks at Dr. Squatch, and this spring’s entry is no exception.

The new soaps are linked to a couple of the key characters from Call of Duty, which feels like a natural fit for this brand if ever there was one. Think grit and toughness as it pertains to soap and cleanups, and you’ll be on the right track.

Cleaning up when the Call of Duty is done

Dr Squatch Sarge — Dr Squatch

The title of this particular product release is the Call of Duty collection, and the first soap is called Ghost Grit. It’s a heavy-duty soap inspired by Lieutenant Simon “Ghost” Ridley, and the specific scents are pepper and leather, along with charcoal to help customers feel like part of the masculine action.

Next up is the Sarge Soap, which is named after Lt. “Soap”MacTavish. The scents in this bricc tend toward lighter — specifically we’re talking pine, Scottish juniper and moss. Both soaps are available individually to subscribers for $6, and there’s a customized Call of Duty calling card included in the packaging.

With all this manly action involved, you knew there had to be a deodorant available for post-duty cleanup, right? That would be the Ghost Stick & Sarge Sticc, which includes charcoal powder, postbiotics to fight bacteria growth that can cause odors, and arrowroot powder to absorb said odors.

The moisturizers here include jojoba and shea butter. The package has been dubbed Ghost’s Destruction Deo, and it’s available for just over $20 in a separate package.

The final entry on the Call of Duty roster is the Call of Duty 4-Pack, which checks in at just under $40. It includes Ghost Grit, Ghost Sticc, Sarge Soap and Sarge Sticc, and it’s also available for US customers on Amazon.

Drunk Elephant’s new must-haves for year-round skin care

Check out Drunk Elephant's new products

It's always big news when multipurpose skincare products become available, and it's especially fun if at least one has a unique origin story. That’s definitely the case for the first, Drunk Elephant’s new Mello Marula Cream Cleanser, which was inspired by a request for a cleanser that would also work as a shaving cream. The second DE offering, Therabu Buttered Reparative Hand Cream, provides the ultimate in winter skincare to ward off the effects of cold and harsh winter conditions.
The story behind Mellow Marula began when founder Tiffany Masterson needed to create a gentle cream that would remove water-resistant makeup, sunscreen, and the daily effects of pollution. Meanwhile, her husband also wanted a product that could be used as a shaving cream as well as part of a comprehensive skin care routine. She told him to mix two other Drunk Elephant products, Slaai and Beste, and the results were so impressive that she decided a two-in-one product was in order.

The Mello Marula package
The three key ingredients here are colloidal oatmeal, which has antioxidant properties and can soothe skin and reduce redness. The cream also includes marula oil, which provides antioxidants along with omegas 6 and 9 to help moisturize and nourish skin. The third member of this trio is shorea stenotera seed butter, which is rich enough to moisturize effectively and also contains vital fatty acids.
In keeping with the versatility theme, Mello Marula is a low-lather formula with an attractive vanilla scent, hence the appeal as a shaving cream. Like all of Drunk Elephant’s products, it’s free of silicones, dyes, solvent alcohols, and sulfate surfactants. It can be used daily on wet or dry skin, and Mello Marula can also be combined with the company’s other products.
The initial test results were impressive. Mellow Marula rinses off easily and completely, and over 90 percent of the participants said their skin was both soothed and comforted with consistent use.

Dr. Squatch just launched their first-ever body wash — here’s what it’s like

Dr. Squatch might be famous for their bar soaps, but their new shower gel is perfect for anyone who prefers a body wash.

Most guys probably already know the brand Dr. Squatch. If you go to the men’s aisle you’ll see their deodorants, face washes, and most notably, their bar soaps, which are famous for having tie-ins with big franchises like Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the MCU. Surprisingly, one thing Dr. Squatch didn’t have until now is a shower gel. Their new body wash collection launched on September 13 and comes in four scents: Coconut Castaway, Fresh Falls, Pine Tar, and Wood Barrel Bourbon.

The Manual was able to try out one of their shower gels before its launch, and after showering with their wood barrel bourbon body wash for over a week now, here are my thoughts.
