Girls Look Hot Wet Guys Don’t

Unilever is promoting Lynx Dry antiperspirant in Australia with an integrated advertising campaign, including television commercials and an interactive site with the message, “Girls Look Hot Wet. Guys Don’t”. The campaign capitalises on two sets of emotions associated with seeing women in wet clothing and being rejected because of sweaty clothes. The Lynx Effect site provides men with the lure of slow motion footage of girls getting saturated, linked with their efforts to keep the guy dry.

The interactive campaign was developed at Soap Creative by creative director Brad Eldridge, copy writer Alex Bodman, developers Jim Boswell and Mark Fennell, producers Alice Le and Josh Hunt.
