Ivanka Trump set out to educate the public about the importance of good hygiene and keeping clean and germ-free in times like these but ended up being bashed by social media users. Reason? She used a darn expensive soap to wash up. At a time when a lot of people in the US have lost their jobs or are struggling to keep theirs, Ivanka's display of riches has rubbed off people the very wrong way. Sharing a video to her Instagram account, featuring her kids, Arabella and Theodore, Ivanka wrote, “We ALL have a role to play to slow the spread!” read Ivanka's caption.
“Wash your hands (ohhh…and turn off the sink with your elbow or a towel while you do to save … still a work in progress with these guys 10 days in ) .” People pointed out that the Aesop soap used by Ivanka in the video, which was rather cute by our admission, costs a whopping $39, which is approx, Rs 3000. Yes, you read that right!! In a time when the economy is on the down sling and people are struggling to make ends meet while a constant fear of contacting Coronavirus looms large, people found Ivanka’s video 'soul less'. They didn't care much about the botanical extracts of the expensive soap.
“Ivanka Trump posted a video of her children washing their hands, with $39 hand soap. What’s next, tomorrow she’ll tell us to eat $100 cakes?” read a tweet.
“WTF?! Again completely out of touch with the real world! I stock up twice a year when they have good sales from bath & body antibacterial soaps, hand sanitizer etc. $40 4 soap that cost $2 to make is just ridiclous & the fact that Ivanka is pushing it while people can’t work.”
