Sweeney collaborated with Dr. Squatch to create a bar of soap infused with her actual bathwater.
The soap sold out online minutes after the drop on Dr. Squatch’s website, but now fans are reselling it on platforms like eBay. Some fans on Reddit claimed the soap sold out just seconds after they clicked on their cart to purchase.

“Been in line since they dropped, finally refreshed and got the checkout only to be met with a ‘out of stock’ pop up,” another wrote.
Some scalpers who scored bars of the soap listed them for hundreds of dollars on resale platforms. One bar of soap sold for $800 on eBay.
The soap was sold with a certificate from Dr. Squatch that assures Sweeney’s bathwater was infused into it.
