It all started when British Artist Hector Janse van Rensburg (AKA Shitty Watercolour. Don’t ask) tweeted a picture of himself hanging out in his bathtub with a bottle of Radox bath gel in the background. “Despite the alluring exploration of the male form combined with a strong brand placement this is not a sponsored tweet,” he wrote. To his surprise however, Radox sent him a direct message telling him how much they liked his tweet and how they’d like to send him a free pack of Radox goodies. Realizing he was onto something, Hector decided to tweet another picture, this time of himself in the bath with a drawing of an Aston Martin. And guess what? They sent him a free car! Albeit a rather smaller one than he was hoping for. Still, not a bad haul from a couple of tweets, right?
