...I'm supposed to wear gloves in the shower?
How are you supposed to thoroughly clean your butthole?
With a potato, in my anus...
My butthole is self cleaning.
If you ever do check that theory for its veracity, you moght be surprised.
who shower barehanded
There is another way...?
You can also get shower brushes, mostly for dislodging dead skin cells...
What? What kind of heathen doesn't have a pair of heavy duty work gloves for showering? Am I the only civilized one among us?!
Arc welding is my favorite shower activity. You need ppe
What if you only have PP? Where to get the E?
Anywhere skin-on-skin contact occurs (butt, balls, armpits), I use a small amount of benzoyl peroxide facewash. It kills the bacteria responsible for BO and for 24-48 hours body odor is impossible.
You apply it, wait 5 minutes and rinse well. If you don't rinse well you can bleach your towel or clothes.
As far as body soap goes, I use a a fragrance free body wash with salicylic acid. Heavy mechanical exfoliation is not necessary when using a chemical exfoliant. Also, loofas are just a bunch of plastic waste.
After the shower, I use a lightweight gel moisturizer with cerimides. I use a thicker moisturizer on my hands and weenis.
That's just the body. I--of course--have a completely seperate routine for my face.
How do you learn all this? Could you also explain your face routine? I'm taking down notes here.
Watching skincare youtube channels and going to a dermatologist.
My face care is a lot. I'd encourage you to find your own products and routine, but I'll list mine as an example:
Daily Mornings:
Daily before bedtime:
Everything kinda has a purpose, so if you have questions please ask.
Your routine looks pretty much what I would expect a modern science-based routine to be when you donβt have very specific issues. My only question would be why not chemical SPF? Arenβt there pretty much proven nonproblematic versions of that these days or do you actually enjoy the mineral based one?
Isn't the soap that touches the body ablated by friction with the skin?
That's the idea of soap, yes. It's how we get lather.
Right. So, I don't get why it should matter where, exactly, the bar of soap goes.
Presumably because it's ablated unevenly in some cases and you wouldn't want for the next person to have to use brown soap.
I shove the bar of soap strait up my ass and just express the foam into my hand from there until I'm done.
