Most products requiring specialised cleaning, assembly, or application these days tend to come with a label that let's you know the best way to utilise the item. Whether you've bought an easy-to-assemble furniture kit, a fleecy hoodie for winter, or something as straight forward as toilet cleaner -- there's a set of instructions to go right along with them. Most are fairly uneventful, but the memorable ones tend to be very, very memorable. Check out some of our favourite promotional label examples below.
Products With Unique Printed Labels
The above Top Gear shirt is a great example of how a stylish promotional t-shirt becomes something even more extraordinary thanks to its unique labelling. Turning the whole "animal testing" debate on its head, the tag on these shirts proclaims they were tested on animals... but don't fit them.
The above is some booklet advice from one of those IKEA-style furniture assembly kits. If you've had enough of putting together a complex wardrobe or dressing table, we can think of nothing more entertaining (or valid) than being advised by your instructions to take it easy for a bit!
Most skin lotion instructions are the same - they tell you to gentle rub the soothing balm into dry or lackluster skin. These particular skin lotion has custom printed instructions that don't sugar coat things - if you have scaly lizard skin, that's where you apply the lotion!
This item of clothing has very straight forward washing instructions, but it is the additional "life instructions" that really don't muck around. Nothing beats your clothes telling you to get in shape and get over Facebook.
Sadly we live in a world where people are now frequently reading their phones while sitting on the toilet. Gone are the days where people spent their toilet time pawing through old magazines and TV guides. Well, almost. This cheeky bathroom cleaner suggests that if you're reading their tiny label you may just have forgotten to bring your smartphone to read instead!
Unlike the other custom labels featured here, this one is a pure and innocent typo (we think). Rather than cleaning a new product with a damp cloth, these guide booklet suggests you reach for a damp SLOTH instead. Unintentional, but hilarious all the same.
And finally, sometimes you don't need any text to convey a seriously funny product guide. The above teaches us (rather vividly) how NOT to put our newly purchased underwear on. Good advice for all, really.
