Twilight Fever Reaches the Grooming Aisle

October 30, 2009

Via this semi-NSFW Twilight lulz blog, I've learned that Bic's line of Soleil razors — whose funk turned me off last year — now includes Twilight and Bella shaving options. I assume it's an attempt to hop on the New Moon train, but don't the bigwigs know that a true Twi shaver would have sparkles in the handle?

it is absolutely a coincidence...the twilight ones were out before the book and movie, and they're called that because they have lavender scented handles, and probably because when one thinks of twilight (and isn't obsessed with these books) they think of the time between dusk and night and there are usually some romantic connotations with that. bella also does not only refer to twilight but means "beautiful" in various languages, notably italian. there's also a citron one with lemon scented handles- can we find a way to make that about jacob?!?!? sorry to get bitchy but i'm just really aggravated by all this twilight overkill and it's bad enough there are all those twilight products out there- let's not ruin one that actually isn't.ps sorry bella i know you're just trying to write a good blog entry but i had to vent this out haha

disturbing...Because that's what obssessive fans need, One more oppurtunity to let the Twilight franchise dominate their lives.

Just because the Twilight ones have been out for a long time does not mean it's just a coincidence. We don't know what's been going on behind the scenes with both companies. When it comes to marketing I don't believe there are many coincidences.

I'm pretty sure it's a coincidence. The twilight ones have been out for a while and the bella ones have been out for a bit as well. I have the bella ones, there's nothing else twilight related on it. I think they just happened to name them that way and got lucky. They also have some kind of tropical-esque ones if I remember correctly...venjen: I legitimately laughed out loud at "Edward Cullen tampons" hahaha ...you should be in marketing

I don't get it . . . is there actually anything special or different about these, or did they just stick "Twilight" and "Bella" on the front of the package?

I know the Twilight ones have been out for some time now (I've used them and didn't think too much of them, to be honest), but I haven't seen the Bella ones anywhere.

I've used the one listed as twilight for over 4 years now. Maybe they figured out they had coincidentally hopped onto a good thing and came out with the other one, but I don't think that they did it on purpose.

The twilight ones have been out for a while now, I think any connection is coincidence... but I haven't seen the bella ones.
