You’re Soaking In It!

Posted by at 11:41 am

The other day as I was doing some dishes, I was wondering if anyone actually still soaks their hands in Palmolive. When I was a kid, it made me feel so very elegant and grown up. And then, as often happens, my thoughts turned to YouTube.


’60s Palmolive Commercial

YouTube also has the original Madge commercial — the quality on that one is pretty poor, though.

    The funny thing is that they say that it is good for your hands, but apparently not so nice to other parts of the body. My wife’s ex-husband once used Palmolive as a body wash since he didn’t have any soap and didn’t think to check under her sink for any of the myriad soaps that she had. He burned his…um…well, sack with that stuff. So, let that be a lesson to all those people out there who might think, “If it is good for my hands, It must be phenomenal for the rest of my body.”
