- I've got the Gamer Goo on my hands.
They literally feel like icicles.
I'm officially Queen Elsa, from the movie Frozen.
(soft upbeat music)
- Yeah I would say in general, I'm a very sweaty man.
- I don't really sweat unless I'm really scared.
- In the gamer sense, I've gotten sweaty.
Fingers have slipped off the keyboard.
It's intense moments, my fingers are gettin' moist.
- I went all out and I bought the scuff controllers
that have all the extra buttons and stuff.
Even with a grip, you do sometimes
get a little bit of slippage.
- When I try a game for the first time,
or I'm trying to play a new character for the first time,
I'll get really nervous and sometimes I'll fumble around.
In that instance I do think it would be helpful
to help my fingers and my hands
just actually do what I want it to do.
Okay.
Ooh!
- First thought, hate the name, real gross.
They know what they're doin' and shame on you.
- Sweat reducing, grip improving, energy enhancing hand goo.
Dang.
- What does energy enhancing mean in goo?
Gonna give me jazz hands?
(laughing)
- Ooh, orange is a nice scent.
- Damn the peppermint, spells like a nice piece of gum.
- Oh god, okay.
This cinnamon is for someone who actually
really loves those really fiery cinnamon red gums.
That person is not me.
I'm gonna go with the orange.
- Let's try the peppermint.
- I'm ready to make some new memories
with the cinnamon scent, memories of winning.
Shake well and apply to palms, then dominate.
I mean are we still talkin' about video games here?
- Oh god, oh god, oh god!
It just droops out.
- This is Gamer Goo.
- It looks like (beeping).
(groaning)
- Upon first application,
I am already feeling the grippiness.
- You know what?
It's really lightweight.
- It somehow smells worse as I start to rub it in.
- She's comin' home with me,
I'm gonna try her out for seven days
and we'll see how this goes.
- All right Goo, I don't like you so far
but you know, we got a week to turn that around.
- All right I grabbed a little bit.
It looks so gnarly.
I do gotta say my hands feel really smooth now.
It feels like I don't have any pores.
It's so weird.
- Let's check this stuff out.
Drops, oh god.
It just keeps comin' out.
There's definitely a period of stickiness.
- So I'm about to go live on stream right now
and you know I got the Goo.
Ooh my heart is pumpin'!
- All right I'm gonna play some Overwatch.
- I've been playing for maybe 10 minutes
and already the palms of my hands
are startin' to get sweaty, like always.
It feels literally the exact same.
- I played six games of Overwatch.
I played five with Gamer Goo on my hands
and then I washed my hands and then I played one more game
just to see if it really made that much of a difference.
And out of the first five games with the Gamer Goo
on my hands, I got Play of the Game four times.
But, when I washed it off, I also got
another Play of the Game with my bare hands.
(soft beeping)
- So we seen it go down in Apex,
but now it's time to use a controller on the PC
and play some Jedi Fallen Order.
So we got the Goo on.
Hey what's up friendo's?
- [Non Playable Character] Hey did you see that?
Yes!
(groaning)
- I just did my morning routine and now I'm gonna Goo it up.
(beeping) Every time!
Oh.
One little drop came out, that's what it's supposed to do.
This does feel grippier.
This just feels dryer.
It seems like it's actually working.
- After I played Overwatch, I ended up washing my hands
but they were still super dry afterwards
and I can still see a little bit of the Gamer Goo residue.
It's weird.
My skin just looks really dry and crackly.
Dude, look at my thumb.
- The hardest part about the Goo
is just gettin' the right amount of Goo on.
The Goo is gettin' everywhere.
All right.
(clapping softly)
All right, let's do it, Goo game.
Get outta here.
Outta here baby!
(laughing) And that's how you do it with the Goo baby.
- I've been playing for 20 minutes
and my hands are already super sweaty again.
I don't think this stuff works.
It does something for maybe five minutes,
right after that it just goes right back to bein' wet.
So for the average gamer who's playin'
for more than 15-20 minutes, I think I'd pass.
- So I had this idea, thinking about how
the Gamer Goo wasn't really working on my hands.
So I figured if it's supposed to help with
sweatiness in general, maybe I could just use
the Gamer Goo as deodorant.
We're also gonna be running around
for Thanksgiving just picking up food
and also cooking in a really hot kitchen all day
so I'm gonna see how Gamer Goo does as deodorant.
(soft beeping)
It actually really worked.
So then we were just by the hot stove all afternoon,
did not sweat at all.
It kinda was the perfect deodorant.
- I'm in the parking lot at a gym
and I'm about to put it to the fitness test.
I'm about to find out if it helps with liftin' weights
because you know a lot of big lifters
they'll use chalk to keep the grip on the bar.
They get mad 'cause it's a little messy.
They don't like us usin' it in the gym
so I brought a secret weapon, I brought this Gamer Goo.
(soft music)
Just got that Goo.
(soft beeping)
- It's the last day of using Gamer Goo.
I am feeling a little bit sick today.
Gamer Goo is helping me because apparently
it helps with energy and I put on a little bit
this morning and it actually did perk me up a little bit.
I just wanna show how flaky and kinda gross
this thing is (chuckling).
That's what I get for using it everyday.
After a week with Mrs. Orange,
I feel like the best use of it for me
was using it as deodorant.
But ultimately it was just really goopy
and it kept leaving white residue everywhere.
So probably not gonna replace my normal deodorant.
- For me, I feel like you can take it or leave it.
I really didn't feel a difference with the keyboard
but I can see if you use a controller,
that really does help the sweat.
The biggest discover I had was findin' out
how dope it is when you lift weights with it.
- If you are someone who is gaming for a long time,
or gets really sweaty holding a controller,
it can be a good solve for you.
It's worth checking out.
