Yep....made my day. I can fully relate. Some things in this world are just getting ridiculous. Keep "Em Coming Gerald"!! Do you put the quotation marks before or after the punctuation? 🤔
I've used Sasquatch soap before and I honestly quite like it. I mean it's absolutely unnecessary expense it for soap. But I enjoy how strong the sentence, the texture of it on my skin, and I actually enjoyed the grainy texture of the Sand & Oates as well. Maybe this is just psychological, but I actually feel like I'm scrubbing the dirt and grime off of my body. My skin it's also very sensitive and gets very itchy a lot so it honestly helps with that as I'm wiping down cuz that grainy texture with these scratches it up real good. That's just me personally, probably other people may not like that. I could tell from your tone that you didn't. But I personally enjoy it. It almost feels like I'm scratching my back as I wipe with soap. It's just quite awkward to hold in the hand given that it's a perfect square ⬛
My thoughts as well. I guess we all have our preferences and I love the natural gritty soap feel. The prices aren't too bad if you subscribe and bundle it. In the end I was paying about $7 per bar of soap.
I get a few at Wal-Mart for about $6.98/bar. That's not too bad for me, in my opinion. Although $5/bar would be better. I also enjoy the smells and I personally enjoy them as well especially considering other soaps and what the ingredients are in them.
The best soap I’ve ever bought and still use today is from Caswell-Massey. It’s not cheap but it’s triple milled and has whatever fragrance u want in the soap. One bar last 3-4 weeks if used everyday. U buy the 12 pack and u get a year of soap for under $100 and no need for cologne after using it.
i feel like i jipped them because they gave me an offer you couldnt refuse, if i bought 3 bars RIGHT NOW, theyd give me 3 more and the little block thingy, all for 40, i think that was around the time the company was getting desperate hahah
The bar is not overpriced when you learn how much it cost to make real natural soap. People have the option to buy commercial soap and they are really affordable, but they have bad ingredients like SLS, parabens, phahlate and others. Real soap is made from fats and Lye. Oils and lye are really expensive, like Shea butter, mango butter, Olive oil, coconut oil, avocado Oil, Palm Oil RSPO certified, sweet almond oil and much more. If you add additives, Kaolin clay, dead sea mud, oatmeal, honey, activated Bamboo Charcoal and much more. People don't appreciate natural products and don't know the real monetary value of those artisan products. Believe me, making real soap from scratch is expensive, difficult, dangerous and time consuming. Commercial soap is just detergent, skin drying and triggers eczema.
Lol this is just wrong, look up soap guy, squatch was selling relabled soap guy before they were big enough to make their own (soap guy (and others) offer the relabling service), you can buy a loaf for the cost of a bar on that site.
I broke down one holiday season and bought a bundle and whatever that bundle was came with a Soap Gripper. My thought on the Soap Gripper was exactly what you suggested before I used it. The Gripper is a hard plastic that you push into the bar and besides making it easier to hold it greatly helps bars from falling apart when they get thin. For what it is the Gripper is overpriced but it does work. I found that a number of the soaps smelled very nice, especially the Bay Rum.
Yea, idk why this guy is shitting on them so much. The soap is good, it works really well and smells nice. It has good exfoliating properties and in fact I can get more uses out of a bar of dr squatch than i can out of the equivalent price of something like Old Spice. And, Dr Squatch doesn't irritate my skin. Plus most of the people complaining about 1) dripage or 2) the bars not lasting obviously dont know how to use a bar soap. You dont apply it under water. The bar should never be in direct water. And the soap dish that lets the water run away does make it last longer
@@pokeraddict Love my Dr. Squatch. I wish they paid me to say it, but they don't unfortunately. The soap is a little pricey because it doesnt last so good, but the shampoo/conditioner/deodorant/ toothpaste/cologne last just as long as any decent stuff you'd get at Walmart for honestly not that much different of a price. 10/10 for me would recommend to anyone.
@@xmobstersal4167 nah just people who’ve actually used it and enjoy it. If it’s not for you then fine, but I’ve gotten actual positives from using this soap.
As someone who has worked on ads, the moment I saw their ads I knew they were spending more on those than the products themselves. Thank you for this, Gerald
A few years ago, I got the urge to make my own soap. It's extremely easy, and there are literally hundreds of fragrances to pick from. Personally, I'll never buy another bar of soap.
So, the issue with free shipping is actually that they don't have the promo setup correctly. It's set to trigger at $77 instead of $75. The screenshot of the support chat you put in the video is hilarious because they obviously just made up the "international processing fee" on the fly to avoid actually supporting a possible customer. If you go to the Canadian store and create an order value of $77 you should see free shipping(works for me).
@@davideffiong1198 I think it's because the banner is set up for USD and the conversion rates make CAD need more or something. But also that's really funny as the package he was getting cost $1 less than free shipping. That's how they get ya 💀
Everyone saying the bars get used up too fast.. I use a loofah to rub it into and I don’t put the bar right in the water. One bar lasts me almost 3 months!

I just buy it at Walmart. It's my favorite soap. This guy has got to calm down. 😂 After watching the ads, I'm convinced that the Dr. Squatch brand is entirely a joke. You're paying for the memes 😂
This is the first Jerald Undone video I have watch. His ranting is truly the voice of the people. It gives me the comforting feeling of getting a second opinion from a reliable source. Well done sir! 👍
Gerald the master of ocd details on the technical breakdown of stuff, drops the bombshell “it’s like wax for waxing up a rail when skating”. Mind blown
I agree with a lot of this but the black trails is easily avoidable, just set it on a soap thingy, not that hard, use your head a bit, if its an easy fix, its not worth complaining, you're only aggravating yourself
This is the exact reason that I have never use this company, and one of the reasons that I stop using duke cannon. I just want to be able to go to the store and have all of your products readily available, choose what I want, put it in my cart and go home. With call things like Dr. Squatch and duke cannon you can’t do that. It’s super annoying, I want convenience I don’t wanna have to order my crap online and wait three weeks to get soap.
Absolutely LOVE your sarcasm!! Great video & review. Honestly touched on every point that annoyed the sh** out of me as well during the ordering process. Just today I recieved the soaps and deodorant...so can't say much about the products myself yet :)
The tone of the third "9 dollars each" where it's like maybe it's different actually got me. I don't normally laugh at youtube videos but god damn was this a good one. Toxic marketing is a goldmine of comedy. I think you should do a whole series about Amazon marketing with the horrible grammar and the ridiculous brand naming. Could be a good source of content. Great video man!
There is an article (I think WSJ?) detailing why Chinese brands use these names and why they use so many labels in their listings on Amazon. Short: it is because it makes applying for trademarks much easier in the US-- any combination of letters that sounds follows English phonotactic rules appears to make it's way through the system easier. The labels comes down to how Amazon suggests items based on search queries, it makes the most sense for a product to list itself with as many tags as possible (specifically phrases, since many people use combinations of words to look for products).
They try to brainwash impressionable men into thinking if they don't buy this they're not a man, or they'll get cancer if they use the soap that many healthy centenarians used for decades, or they'll get divorced just because they don't use this product. Womens products don't need to be advertised this way so why are men's advertisements trying to insult men?
I like how it lasts 3 times more and smells just as nice for the same price, as for if it prevents cancer, do you think they really know, they are still debating on if egg yolks and milk are good for you.
I think it's funny how their ads are all like "soap is a chemical and chemicals bad" but their soap is also a chemical because that's literally how soap works.
This company has improved a lot and their prices aren't terrible if you are into all natural soaps. It's hard to find a good all natural soap that doesn't dry your skin out for less money than Dr. Squatch charges. They really want you to make an account and buy in bundles. Also they're always 20%+ discount codes floating around you can find online so I never spend more than $5 or so per bar. That's not bad since the soap bars last me about a month.
Got gifted three bars it's novelty soap. Took one of them out on the boat pike fishing as a hand cleaner for after I baited up. It sat in a recess i have on the splashguard so was only aubmerged for maybe 5hr max and withing 18hr it was a lump of mush that stained my gellcoat black
I've gotten their soaps before I love the pine tar and I never had any problems with the soap except for the cost LOL probably cost like $0.02 for them to make
I got a couple of them to try them out including pine tar and I loved it just didn't love the side for the price I just get duke cannon soap now may be around the same price but you get a whole brick of soap and it's in stores.
@@him-ph6fi if you use honey, I got 40% percent discount on a holiday bundle with the 12 soaps and the colognes for just under 100$ so I recommend u try that and the price will at least go down
I generally become disinterested when a channel I've been a loyal viewer of for years begins take a different direction... Gerald Undone is the first channel to successfully do this without losing my interest. I will not honestly admit how many times I've familiarized myself with the ultimate banana guide, but I must say, well done Gerald. This is the information we didn't know we needed in life. Keep it coming! At some point, can you explain what Dr. Brown's Gigawatt is?? Rock on!
My Friend: “You should check out Gerald Undone, he has great camera/tech reviews!” Me actually checking him out: Watches banana and soap reviews instead 😂
very cool. thanks for the review.. i pay 3.33 for my all natural bars of soap, that are a quite a bit bigger than that and it is a local farmer near me that i buy from. real nice soap as well.
I tried these soaps once. It wasn't for me, it dried out my skin. I just recently saw them being physically available at Walmart, which was a surprise.
Yeah, Their original line up was super harsh on the skin. But now they offer some moisturizing/revitalizing soap options. ( Thou it seems these higher quality/luxurious products) cause them to hike up their shipping price. ( As away to hide the real price increase)
This was a good video, Gerald, but I feel like you are complicit in your silence by not addressing the fact that "Dr." Squatch has yet to provide evidence of the fact that they completed ANY higher education, let alone a full doctorate program. We need to see the dissertation.
I do enjoy using the squatch soaps. They are my go to soap because they don't make me itchy like a lot of other soaps do. I have been buying mine at Walmart though. I live in the US and my local Walmart sells them for $6 a bar. I've also tried their shampoo and conditioner. It's okay but honestly I prefer the Black Wolf shampoo and conditioner even though it is outrageously expensive.
I hate their ads popping up constantly I never bothered to check their site though... thanks for the video I know to never buy these overpriced soap bars now lol
i do get Dr. Squatch, and I do like it. With Amazon, I usually pay 11-12 Dollars. Now the last bar, I paid did cost 15.80, but it lasts about 2 to 2 1/2 months; overall I am satisfied.
It’s crazy $20 dollars on Amazon and 10 on there site. I got mine on Black Friday with like a discount code for I think 3.50-4.50 a bar I stocked up for like 2 years worth. I love them but if I had to pay full price….. well I wouldn’t
Not really understanding the complaints about how it smells and how it feels on your body. It’s soap. Also, I can get one bar at Walmart for five dollars and it lasted me quite a while.
It’s crazy to me that people actually buy their products with how bad the economy is right now and how expensive necessities are. Why would anyone spend this much for soap?
Didn’t even mention the exfoliating properties and the choice of no grit, light grit, medium grit or heavy grit. For that reason alone I’d buy it. Plus it’s like 5 dollars at the grocery store
I will never buy anything I see in media commercials. EVERY single one becomes a scam in one way or another (Usually the issue is it's nearly impossible to cancel).
Nice review about... soap. I found your channel after watching a video by Jeven Dovey. I've been wondering about the Dr. Squatch product and now my questions have been answered. I don't need $75.00 of shower stuff 😁
100% agree. Makes me feel rubbery like most of the artisan soaps still haven't figured out why. Even after reading all of the google searches concerning the I guess there could be 1 of 4 reasons why.
Just bought a bunch of their products and I was unsure if it would feel rubbery afterwards…. Used it and felt rubbery but as soon as I dried myself, skin actually felt really nice. Birch wood scent smells great honestly. But bummed I spent a fair bit on it but I do like their scents 😂
In all honesty I wouldn’t buy it online. I only started using it because I saw that they sell it at my local Walmart for like 6$. So I get like 3 for 20$. But yeah when I looked at it on the website I was like “hell nah” but then I gave it a chance when I saw it at the store and surprisingly I really like the soap and the deodorant they have.
This brand of soap is the single biggest reason I will always have a UA-cam Premium account. Their adds are intrusive, insulting and just plain stupid. That assclown they have in their adds gets under my skin on sight. This brand is the single worst example of internet marketing and their website seems to show that. Ok, I'm done. PS great review Gerald! Watching you rant was a great Monday start!
I would probably pay for an Instagram Premium to avoid the idiotic ads there as well. It's absurd how little actual content is seen compared to the number of ads and sponsored posts. As soon as I learned about UA-cam Premium, I was all over it.
@@theroachden6195 literally the definition of detergent is "a water-soluble cleansing agent" lol it's insane the marketing ploys they use, and how many people fall for it.
I personally found a soap from another company that sells equal quality soap for half the price, but when I bought from dr squatch I literally preferred to just buy off amazon because the one time I ordered from their site it was the most annoying process ever, and it took like 2-3 weeks to arrive cuz they just wouldnt ship it out for like 2 weeks.

Also they're always 20%+ discount codes floating around you can find online so I never spend more than $5 or so per bar. That's not bad since the soap bars last me about a month.
I am right there with you on the pricing on these. IT'S JUST SOAP! Also, your pitch for the Curiosity Stream + Nebula bundle got me. I just signed up.
Got gifted three bars it's novelty soap. Took one of them out on the boat pike fishing as a hand cleaner for after I baited up. It sat in a recess i have on the splashguard so was only aubmerged for maybe 5hr max and withing 18hr it was a lump of mush that stained my gellcoat black
We are now entering the hilarious "Gerald Unhinged" arc xD
I wish there was a channel that was solely dedicated to reviewing the most common sponsorships from various UA-camrs and those annoying ads.
I've gotten their soaps before I love the pine tar and I never had any problems with the soap except for the cost LOL probably cost like $0.02 for them to make
I got a couple of them to try them out including pine tar and I loved it just didn't love the side for the price I just get duke cannon soap now may be around the same price but you get a whole brick of soap and it's in stores.
@@CCXZBlur yeah only bad thing about them is the price, their scents are too tier though, especially ones that are heavy grit
@@him-ph6fi if you use honey, I got 40% percent discount on a holiday bundle with the 12 soaps and the colognes for just under 100$ so I recommend u try that and the price will at least go down
They cost a lot more to make. Oils and butters are very expensive
Actually it’s like 12$ per unit on these because of the natural oils and natural scent oils processing and the package.
The trail of soap happened to Pine tar and another one (red) which I forgot...the rainforest really smells good.
“Cereal grains and beach scraps” 😂😂 idk why but I laughed so hard
Who knew that I wanted/needed to watch a 15 minute video on soap.
Gerald, I thank you. I hope you keep up these review videos hahaha.
Bravo sir! This is why I love UA-cam reviews. No Squatch for me. 🤷🏽♂️
Please don't stop this series, it is so good!
My brother used to buy it. It smells really good, and he stopped using it... Too expensive.
I generally become disinterested when a channel I've been a loyal viewer of for years begins take a different direction... Gerald Undone is the first channel to successfully do this without losing my interest. I will not honestly admit how many times I've familiarized myself with the ultimate banana guide, but I must say, well done Gerald. This is the information we didn't know we needed in life. Keep it coming! At some point, can you explain what Dr. Brown's Gigawatt is?? Rock on!
11:50 Let him cook, Let him cook
12:21 Trust the process
12:33 GET THIS MAN OFF THE FUCKING KITCHEN 🔥🔥🔥🚒🚒🚒😭🙏
My Friend: “You should check out Gerald Undone, he has great camera/tech reviews!”
Me actually checking him out: Watches banana and soap reviews instead 😂
Sure, Gerald, but how’s the low light performance? Has it fixed the rolling shutter problem with the previous soap?
"It's soap! My god!" Is my new ringtone. Thanks Gerald!
bulk apothecary sells the soap at bulk prices. i get the pine tar soap for like 1.70 per bar
I really liking this series! and Yes I will sign up for Nebula if that is what it takes to get more of Gerald screaming at soap!
very cool. thanks for the review.. i pay 3.33 for my all natural bars of soap, that are a quite a bit bigger than that and it is a local farmer near me that i buy from. real nice soap as well.
I tried these soaps once. It wasn't for me, it dried out my skin. I just recently saw them being physically available at Walmart, which was a surprise.
Yeah, Their original line up was super harsh on the skin. But now they offer some moisturizing/revitalizing soap options. ( Thou it seems these higher quality/luxurious products) cause them to hike up their shipping price.
( As away to hide the real price increase)
This was a good video, Gerald, but I feel like you are complicit in your silence by not addressing the fact that "Dr." Squatch has yet to provide evidence of the fact that they completed ANY higher education, let alone a full doctorate program. We need to see the dissertation.
That's a good point.
I hope whenever you buy a branded clothing, you would analyse the value same way.
Also, people keep their soaps in soap holders.
I do enjoy using the squatch soaps. They are my go to soap because they don't make me itchy like a lot of other soaps do. I have been buying mine at Walmart though. I live in the US and my local Walmart sells them for $6 a bar.
I've also tried their shampoo and conditioner. It's okay but honestly I prefer the Black Wolf shampoo and conditioner even though it is outrageously expensive.
Do you also use their deodorants?
I use the Rum barrel soap and its great and somewhat cheap i use it instread of shampoo and lasts for months
@@ramborenegadephantom9434 I used their deodorants and I tried the pine and river and rum but i really like the rum barrel {or beer barrel i forgot.}
*me who uses generic axe body wash because I'm cheap and don't really care as long as I'm clean*
I hate their ads popping up constantly I never bothered to check their site though... thanks for the video I know to never buy these overpriced soap bars now lol
8$ is totally fine for hand-made soap.
fr
It's a big brand. It's not handmade
@@Stettafire just because its a big brand doesnt mean its not handmade
i do get Dr. Squatch, and I do like it. With Amazon, I usually pay 11-12 Dollars. Now the last bar, I paid did cost 15.80, but it lasts about 2 to 2 1/2 months; overall I am satisfied.
“Instructions - in case you’re new to soap..”. LMAO 😆😆👍🏼
It’s crazy $20 dollars on Amazon and 10 on there site. I got mine on Black Friday with like a discount code for I think 3.50-4.50 a bar I stocked up for like 2 years worth. I love them but if I had to pay full price….. well I wouldn’t
I will never not laugh at an off-screen cat yelping gag
It is mandatory. 🤣
One of the soaps from there stained my bathtub so I threw them all wash lol
I was already on Nebula, but I want to say, Im so happy to see you over there, I really believe in the project and the Curiosity Stream alliance
Not really understanding the complaints about how it smells and how it feels on your body. It’s soap. Also, I can get one bar at Walmart for five dollars and it lasted me quite a while.
They have it at Walmart and it's only $6. Best soap hands down.
States or Canada
They are selling a much less quality product no than they did 6 months ago. I’m heartbroken. The pine tar ain’t pine tar no mo. It’s like flowers.:(
Mine was 5 also at Walmart
@Liberals now know Biden was the worse choice Squatch has soap with goats milk in it.
@Liberals now know Biden was the worse choice They have a goats milk scent lmao
It’s crazy to me that people actually buy their products with how bad the economy is right now and how expensive necessities are. Why would anyone spend this much for soap?
Being Canadian truly was mistake #1
Didn’t even mention the exfoliating properties and the choice of no grit, light grit, medium grit or heavy grit. For that reason alone I’d buy it. Plus it’s like 5 dollars at the grocery store
Professor Yeti got me 😂😂😂. I do have to say though, as a woodworker I do enjoy their scents. But yeah, overpriced...unless you buy 4???
I know I’m a little late but yeah I notice the bundles are much better than buying one a piece
The ads are so annoying. I'm so tired of seeing and blocking the ads but I still get tormented by them
You should totally fire up a second channel "Products Undone" where you break down non-camera related mainstream products. It would explode.
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT! It's SOAP! This is better than anything on UToob right now.
It's available at Target now. Bought a bar today and haven't tried it yet. I'll update after I use it.
I’m genuinely loving these kinds of videos from you man! 😂
Walmart has the soaps $5.98 each
Bulk apocarthy has better quality soap for 2 dollars a bar and is where they originally got their soap from
The ad on this video was for the Star Wars soap. Absolutely hilarious
I got that one too.
They have it at walmart now in canada.
I love sassy Gerald lmao, this was great man
I will never buy anything I see in media commercials. EVERY single one becomes a scam in one way or another (Usually the issue is it's nearly impossible to cancel).
This whole series is genius. Mixing old Gerald comedy with new Gerald analysis. Great combo! 🤣
Nice review about... soap. I found your channel after watching a video by Jeven Dovey. I've been wondering about the Dr. Squatch product and now my questions have been answered. I don't need $75.00 of shower stuff 😁
100% agree. Makes me feel rubbery like most of the artisan soaps still haven't figured out why. Even after reading all of the google searches concerning the I guess there could be 1 of 4 reasons why.
Just bought a bunch of their products and I was unsure if it would feel rubbery afterwards…. Used it and felt rubbery but as soon as I dried myself, skin actually felt really nice. Birch wood scent smells great honestly. But bummed I spent a fair bit on it but I do like their scents 😂
I used to clip coupons every Sunday and buy soap at a discount. Now everyone is content with paying $6 for soap and I have to deal with this reality.
In all honesty I wouldn’t buy it online. I only started using it because I saw that they sell it at my local Walmart for like 6$. So I get like 3 for 20$. But yeah when I looked at it on the website I was like “hell nah” but then I gave it a chance when I saw it at the store and surprisingly I really like the soap and the deodorant they have.
3 times 6 is 18 they robbing you
You are paying too much, it’s SOAP.
@@r0btech It's their money let em do what they want.
@@r0btechnah one bar lasts me 3 months🤷🏻♂️
Thats a good price a bottle of shampoo is 25 bucks
I have rash on my armpit because of the soap bar…. now I will be using Hawthorne
This brand of soap is the single biggest reason I will always have a UA-cam Premium account. Their adds are intrusive, insulting and just plain stupid. That assclown they have in their adds gets under my skin on sight. This brand is the single worst example of internet marketing and their website seems to show that.
Ok, I'm done.
PS great review Gerald! Watching you rant was a great Monday start!
I would probably pay for an Instagram Premium to avoid the idiotic ads there as well. It's absurd how little actual content is seen compared to the number of ads and sponsored posts. As soon as I learned about UA-cam Premium, I was all over it.
sounds like u dont have thick skin😭 mans prefer bullshit in his soap compared to natural stuff
Yeah the whole "FDA classified as detergent" part makes me laugh. All soap is a detergent if the super fat is right.
You’ve never been introduced to Bird Dogs
@@theroachden6195 literally the definition of detergent is "a water-soluble cleansing agent" lol it's insane the marketing ploys they use, and how many people fall for it.
Never seen any of your videos. But that cutaway clip from "I think you should leave" killed me. Earned a like lol
I personally found a soap from another company that sells equal quality soap for half the price, but when I bought from dr squatch I literally preferred to just buy off amazon because the one time I ordered from their site it was the most annoying process ever, and it took like 2-3 weeks to arrive cuz they just wouldnt ship it out for like 2 weeks.
What’s the company?
Which company?
Whats the company
Great Review, Definitely the funniest review of this product line on UA-cam.
Its Just SOAP!!! 😂😂😂
I just love Gerald's humour its the best
