I wanna know every girl or woman's hygiene tips. like were all sisters having a convo. it can be about literally anything.
This is a safe space forum so please dont feel shy about sharing your experiences with these hygiene tips.
Also every age is welcome to write down, the more mature women in here the better
The best tip I can give is double cleanse and this goes for face and body. Face use a good oil cleanser and then follow up with your gentle cleanser of choice. For your body use a bar of soap like Caprina on a wash cloth, then follow up with your body wash. You will find that your skin is brighter, softer, and you will smell great. ♥
@kaylvang.mp3. I will deff try that out thank you!
You’re so welcome! Also this was a fantastic idea. I can’t wait to see all the replies. I have my notebook ready lol!☺
not a woman, but afab and fem presenting to public. theres some things i had to learn on my own even if it seems more common for others, ill say what wasnt clear to me when i was younger.
two rounds of shampoo, conditioner only on ends. i had to learn this thru youtube, surprisingly. only once a week for washing hair made it feel so much healthier; can depend on ur hair type ofc
scrub!!!! for me i do a body wash with a rag that i switch out nightly, then a second round of body wash ( and or shower gel ) with a hand scrub ( or loofah ) for exfoliation! it got rid of the bumps i see people often complain about along the upper arms or sometimes stomach! also, little detail, but dont wet the scrub - body wash on it dry and then to skin, the dampness on ur skin already will help it foam.
while my showers are nightly, it will depend on your activity levels. i sweat and move around a lot, so i exfoliate more often, though if you do less activity or dont sweat as much, you may be doing more harm to your skin. research depending on your day to day life!
this can start to sound redundant, but my skin cleared up massively with a diet change. even if it wasnt organic, the healthier options did wonders, along with rotating skincare until i found something my face agreed with.
when shaving, i found it the softest and less likely for bumps when i apply witch hazel toner after along with body oil or lotion. also seeing as i walk a lot, my feet more often become rougher - ill see often people will go for expensive products but really you just need to soak your feet a while in water or right after a shower, take a minute or two to scrub your feet with a pumice stone then something hydrating (coconut oil?). consistency after every shower will be enough i believe. though ofc i cant say for fact
@seukaramusyu I do the same aswell. I use a dry brush before taking a shower to remove extra dead skin, then i go in with a exfoliating glove as i wash my body with soap. Then after that i apply a body scrub after i get done exfoliating.
Then after i get out i only dry my feer, under my arms, under the girls, and of course down there. You wanna be dry in those areas but your body still damp. I apply witch hazel under my arms, by neck, behind my knees, and in between the girls to prevent dark spots.
And while my body is still damp i use a body oil, when your body is damp it helps the oil sink into your body. then i do a body butter, followed by a body cream, perfume.
then ofc i use deodorant
Thats just one of my tips for showering. You're tips were very helpful aswell
i've heard that soap souldnt be used at all for the vulva. or at least not the ones they sell at the supermarket
soap is gen so bad for afab genitals. the vulva is self cleaning!!!!! by using soap ur getting rid of all the bacteria and making it dry and itchy. js rinse between the folds and youll be fine
Hydrogen peroxide or bleach to get blood off fabric, but don't mix them PLEASE! Also, oil hair after blowdrying/straightening (after it cools completely) if you wanna prevent crispiness
a few little things that i do!
i always have a oil blotting compact! i got mine from miniso but im sure there are tons at other places!
I try to clean under my nails everyday since i like to keep mine long!
i use lotion after washing my hands to keep them from drying up! i’ve been told i have super soft hands even though i work with clay and my hands in general
with my depression, i find that washing/wiping myself down with a paper towel or cloth of sorts helps to keep myself somewhat clean. it can be hard to find the motivation to keep clean so i target the main points! underarms and genitalia
I also try to wash off any makeup before i go to sleep, and ideally wash my face twice a day, though it can be difficult sometimes! when that happens i slash my face with water periodically to try to keep the oil buildup at bay
this is my favorite deodorant, secret mango tango. it makes me smell so nice.... ( ꈍᴗꈍ) there's also an antiperspirant version
