Sydney Sweeney is relishing the internet buzz surrounding her recent collaboration with men's grooming brand Dr. Squatch, which features a limited-edition soap named "Sydney's Bathwater Bliss."
The actress has numerous projects in the pipeline and is set to release her latest film, "Echo Valley," in which she plays the daughter of Julianne Moore, as they strive to keep a dark secret hidden.
Two months after her split from ex-partner Jonathan Davino, Sydney Sweeney broke her silence on her relationship status, confirming she's single.
Sydney Sweeney has reacted to her bath water, causing massive buzz on social media after it was featured in her collaboration with Dr. Squatch.
The "Anyone But You" star made waves when she announced a new partnership with the men's grooming brand for a limited-edition line of bar soaps that include an unusual key ingredient: her actual bath water.
Following an initial Dr. Squatch commercial, where Sweeney appeared in a bubble bath, several fans humorously took to social media to demand that her bath water be featured in the soap, and the brand heeded their call, which has now resulted in a teal-colored bar of soap called Sydney's Bathwater Bliss.
"You kept asking about my bathwater after the @drsquatch ad…" she captioned a recent post. "So we kept it."
During a recent appearance at the New York premiere of her latest film, "Echo Valley," Sweeney shared more details on the origins of the viral soap.
When asked about the unique product, she told E! News, "I pitched it!"
Addressing the online chatter, Sweeney commented, "I think it's more fun to see everyone else talk about it."
The "White Lotus" star has been busy working on several new projects, as her new Apple TV+ film, "Echo Valley," is set to hit the streaming platform on June 13th.
In the film, Sweeney plays the daughter of Julianne Moore as the two battle to keep a dark secret hidden. According to E! News, she noted that the project gave her "so many reasons" to say yes.
"The character, Claire, is such a multi-layered, troubled young woman," she explained. "And being able to explore a character that has so many dimensional relationships with their mother, it's fun."
Also, she admitted that working opposite the legendary Moore was "such a dream" for her; hence, she couldn't say no.
"She is beyond kind," Sweeney gushed. "Like one of the kindest human beings I've ever met."
Meanwhile, Sweeney has had to deal with a sad situation in her personal life after calling it quits with her partner of 7 years, Jonathan Davino. The pair began dating in 2018 and got engaged in 2022.
In a recent interview with the Sunday Times, she confirmed that she's single again, months after multiple outlets previously reported that they'd called off their engagement and ended their relationship.
"I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends," she added. "And I'm loving it."
People Magazine confirmed that Sweeney called off her wedding to Davino after weeks of speculation about the state of their relationship.
A source close to the situation told the news outlet that the actress did not feel "right" about marrying Davino.
The source also noted that, unlike some people, Sweeney was not being "overwhelmed" by her busy work schedule, but was instead stressed out about a potential wedding to her then-fiancé.
"She's exactly where she wants to be. Most people would feel overwhelmed by her working schedule this year, but not Syd. She's all about working right now and very excited about all her projects," the source said.
"What did make her overwhelmed, though, was her relationship and her wedding. She didn't feel right about it," they added.
Sweeney opened up about her surprising acting process during an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Thursday to promote her upcoming movie "Echo Valley."
While chatting with Fallon, she admitted that she's "kind of psychotic" on set and feels "bad" for her costars while filming specific projects, per the New York Post.
"I, like, jump in and out," Sweeney told Fallon after he asked how she prepares for her roles. "It's kind of psychotic."
"Like, you're happy and fun, and then…" the late-night host said, to which Sweeney added, "And then they say, 'Action!' and then I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'"
Elsewhere in her chat with Fallon, Sweeney shared some updates about her "Euphoria" character, Cassie, ahead of the show's upcoming third season.
"Cassie is crazy," she told Fallon. "It's the favorite version of her. She's even worse, she's even worse."
