Brush your teeth well and always carry some gum or mints to keep away that little “day breath.” If you skip breakfast, sip on lemon-infused water, or chew on a clove or a tiny piece of cinnamon stick it works like magic! 🍋💕
2. Showertime sparkle.
Take a shower every day using a gentle intimate soap and your favorite body wash or bar soap for the rest of your body choose one that smells absolutely dreamy. 🛁🌷
3. Glow-up ritual twice a week.
At least twice a week, apply a bit of body oil after your shower. It makes your skin shine beautifully, and your perfume or body mist will last way longer. ✨💖
4. Moisturize, always.
Before perfume, apply a hydrating lotion or just use the lotion by itself for a soft, baby-like scent. 🧴🌸
5. Hair love (optional but adorable).
Use a hair oil that treats your hair and smells delicious. It’s such a girly secret touch! 💕
6. Everyday perfume magic.
Have a few body mists or light perfumes for daily use. Choose ones with a lovely, long-lasting projection so you leave a sweet trace everywhere you go. 🍓🌼
7. Ditch the spray deodorants.
Go for moisturizing deodorant creams or roll-ons instead aerosols darken underarms and don’t hydrate at all (you want soft petals, not asphalt!). 🌷🚫
8. Keep your lingerie fresh.
Wash your underwear with intimate soap or gentle baby soap to keep everything soft and clean. 🩷🫧
9. Fresh socks = happy feet.
Never wear the same socks twice! Reusing them causes sweat buildup, bacteria, and even fungal infections. Keep your feet clean, soft, and smelling sweet. 🧦✨
10. Wrinkle-free & cute.
Never leave your clothes wrinkled it gives a messy impression. Ironing makes you look neat and extra lovely. 👗💞
11. Pretty shoes, happy vibes.
Always keep your shoes clean and sprinkle some foot powder inside to prevent bad odors and sweating. Clean shoes, clean soul! 👠🩰
- I would say it’s a decently easy routine but it has become habit for me so don’t take my word for it.
Pre-shower:
- Brush teeth: Any toothpaste works, honestly. I personally use the marvis whitening one when I have been to tk maxx, if not just the Colgate 3 toothpaste works.
- Mouthwash: I usually go like 60-70 seconds regardless of the instruction, and usually I either use purple listerine one or the Thera Breath blue one, but any would work fine. I don’t really floss because it’s never been a thing that I’ve done tbh. If I NEED to start flossing, I will, but I have decently strong/heavy duty(?) teeth (but also very tightly packed teeth).
In the shower:
- Body:
- Body scrub: I like dove body scrubs, but I definitely don’t use them often. Maybe once a week or less, I just couldn’t be bothered most of the time. I usually only do arms and legs, too, I’m not sure if that’s what you should do but it’s what I do. Personally, right now I’m using the coconut shea butter one most.
- Soap: Dove again, their vanilla soap is really good and it can be bought in bulk, which is pretty handy. I use soap every time I shower.
- Body wash: idk if this is called something different household to household but I basically mean liquid soap. I use a luffa to apply it and it’s usually something from TK Maxx, the Lux gold one, or milk and honey Palmolive soap.
- Hair:
- Shampoo: I swear by either the CP1 ginger shampoo or the Pantene biotin shampoo but mind you I have 1B-1C hair and unfortunately I cannot help you curly girls. I love you, but never take my advice. I also typically shampoo twice.
- Conditioner: I tend to use more conditioner than shampoo despite shampooing twice because I have long hair, and I often use the Pantene biotin conditioner or CP1 ginger shampoo. Once again, I have straight hair. Do not replicate the what I do if you have curly hair.
- Face:
- Cleanser: I’m really acne prone to the point I’m on medication for it, so I use the CeraVe hydrating cleanser with the leaf green bottle. One thing you should never use, though, is St. Ives peach scrub, I feel like that or just face scrubs in general are pretty bad for your skin.
Post-shower:
- Face:
- Moisturiser: I usually use the QV ceramides moisture cream. It’s a pretty good all rounder. Either that or CeraVe moisturiser in a pot, I think it’s called just moisturising cream.
- Sunscreen (if it’s daytime): I like to use the cancer council one in the blue bottle with the pump at the top or la Roche Posay. Right now I’m using cancer council SPF 50 moisturiser in the bottle though because I couldn’t be bothered to go hunting for the other ones.
- Lip care: I will typically just reapply plain vaseline and Nivea SPF 15 throughout the day or some of the essential health pawpaw + macadamia lippie. Oh, I also liked this glazed donut lippie by Lanolips but I lost it. I want to branch out with my lip care but in the same vein who gaf. At night I use Amolin as a lip mask, it’s also pretty good for dry and cracked skin after sunburns.
- Body:
- Body oil: I like to either use scented ones from TK Maxx, Palmers shea oil or coconut oil from the cooking aisle. It’s pretty nice either way just be careful with the scented stuff cause sometimes it’s gonna smell like asscheeks.
- Moisturiser: Vaseline coco glow is pretty good, or just the face moisturisers I listed earlier. Or random tK Maxx ones if u like the smell. I also use this Hawaiian tropic silk hydration body lotion/sunscreen, and sometimes Vaseline gluta hya if I wanna smell floral.
- Body Butter: I usually use it just to smell good, any work fine just match it to your perfume. I use one by ciroa which is peak and smells great.
- Hair:
- Hair oil/serum: I use Pantene biotin hair oil, or sometimes hair serum I pick up at random. Right now I have one by Bondi boost that I mixed Pantene conditioner into. It works well. Not every night though.
- Scent:
- Body mist: sometimes I use it, sometimes I don’t, depends on if I feel like layering and how I feel like layering. Usually I don’t layer perfumes with anything though unless it matches really well.
- Perfume: For cheaper perfumes I would say Britney spears perfumes, Chemist Warehouse sales, Anna Sui ones or Ed Hardy. Also Arab perfumes by lataffa go hard, so does Paris corner, and they’re cheap but hard to come by. I also love aerre and Whif for dupes of designers. Keep those in mind. I have a lot though, and it’s hard to recommend one perfume that’s an all rounder.
- Deodorant: Dove roll-ons work well, I like powder soft. I also like their sprays as well as pearl and beauty by nivea.
Once again, I’d say it’s easy to follow, but I don’t follow it extremely consistently either. Bare minimum on bad days and on good days I do it all. I also really like smelling good so it focuses way more on that department than hair and teeth because I was blessed pretty well for those. It’s not a guide so much as an outline if you have no clue whatsoever about what you’re doing.
Hygieia, daughter of Asclepius and Epione, goddess of health and cleanliness and prevention of illness, hear me in my time of need; there are cruel individuals who have taken your name in vain. Plague ravages the streets, kindly Hygieia, come to me, come to us; destroy those who would sully your name! Cast plague upon them when it would find us, thrust them in our place. Retract your blessings from them, O Hygieia, they love you not, they seek to sully your name with the worst of sewage, come not to them Hygieia, to those who only harm you. Seek revenge on those who sully your name, Hygieia. Cast snakes and plague upon them, Hygieia, take from them your blessings, let them wallow in the filth they seek to thrust upon you like swine; come close, Hygieia, to the ones who love you, grant us safety from them and their devices, praise be upon you Hygieia.
