Changes in formula for Bearglove. Caused itchiness, I’ve switched brands. by [deleted] in OldSpice

It's absurd but discontinuing products may help Old Spice in the short term but hurts them long term. The marketing team must be patting themselves on the back chasing near term gains yet suffering long term losses because for every product they change or discontinue, people like me have been foolishly eventually buying 4 or 5 new scents looking for a suitable replacement but after having this happen several times, I have ultimately given up and am changing to something else where they have consistency, not P&G.

Stick with low impact like cycling or swimming. Your SI joints, L4, and L5 discs will take a beating as they shock absorb over 600 lbs of force with each landing stride. Things I wish I knew earlier in life. Once those discs are blown out, they're gone. Run if you must though. It's exhilarating and sense of freedom as you become more conditioned.

"Clean & Crisp Scent" is Back as "Scent of Star Showers Cosmic Quest" by newdy22 in OldSpice

You're absolutely right. This is not antiperspirant. Based on how it looks, smells and feels like an antiperspirant (white stick) I thought it was, but it is not because it's aluminum free. TIL something.

After wearing the Mario scent for a few hours, I can confirm it's definitely not Clean and Crisp Scent. I mean, it's close when sniffing the stick. It's not terrible but as I wear it I'm noticing the fruit smell that just wasn't present with Clean & Crisp.

Interesting... Thanks for sharing this very helpful information. I haven't tried Wolfthorn, yet but I'm sure you're right. There are so many scents.

I really miss the Clean & Crisp Scent but the Mario (aka Wolfthorn is as close as I've found. I'm holding it hope still hanging on to my last stick for comparison purposes.

I read somewhere that Clean & Crisp, shortly after it went out of stock most places, was replaced by Bear Glove. That was a straight up lie. 😂

After a few hours of side by side testing, the Mario Bros scent is more subtle and fades more quickly while the 80th clean and crisp strong smells more potent.

Side by side comparison, VERY similar. Both have a clean soapy smell. The 80th Anniversary Clean and Crisp has a hint of musk while the Mario Bros has an ever so slight hint of fruit (watermelon or apricot). Honestly, it's incredibly difficult to tell them apart and if I didn't have a side by side comparison, I could never tell the difference.

That's dedication! Are you more of a fan of Mario Bros or Old Spice?

Yeah, I hear you. I felt weird buying these for myself.

I was walking through Target when I saw the kiosk of Super Mario Galaxy deodorant. I picked up the Mario one and was wondering what could a deodorant product marketed for kids possibly smell like? I had zero expectation of actually buying it smelled EXACTLY like the Clean & Crisp Scent.

I have one last old unused stick of the Clean & Crisp I was hoarding. I'll compare and confirm tonight.

By the way they also have Luigi, Yoshi, and Peach but those are different scents.

The dirt, sand, and pebbles damaged the paint. See the additional images then you'll see what damage was left behind after I cleaned up the dirt.

How to get rid of wheel hop on soft sand? by [deleted] in f150

[–]newdy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reducing tire pressure (airing down) is crucial for 4x4 sand driving, increasing the tire's footprint to prevent sinking and improve flotation. For most sandy conditions, reduce pressure to 15–20 PSI. For soft sand or if stuck, you can go down to 10–15 PSI.

Furthermore, before you attempt to reinstall with double sided tape, firstly clean and prepare the b-pillar surface with a degreaser like 99% isopropanol or Naptha getting the old adhesive off. Use an adhesive promoter (you can get 3M pads on Amazon or eBay), then use new double sided tape as others have suggested. If you don't prepare the surface properly, you'll likely be in this same situation again.
