    I use a shower puff thing, it makes my skin nice and soft.

    I use this Attachment 151527
    It's not as tough as it looks and just makes me feel cleaner than anything else would imo. I've used it since ever *shrugs*
    They are for washing dishes

    Which part do people wash first when they get in the shower? With me, it's the belly and then moving up under the armpits. Thoughts? This is a pretty important issue to my mind, maybe even more than the sponge or flannel.
    I go top-down, so I start by soaping up my hair and work my way down to my feet, then just rinse my whole self off at once.

    Have to be honest, just thought that was normal behaviour.

    Not at all, people commence their showering behaviours in very different ways.

    I use one of them body puff things, if actually used a flannel then I would use it more for just washing face without going in shower etc

    I use a shower poof thing. My bf just uses his hands with soap. I always thought just using your hands wasn't sufficient, but he lathers it up well :sexface:

    Showering and even bathing in general are a terrible experience because you end up getting soap in your eyes,luckily I don't have to shave,when I go for a bath.

    Well if everybody is using that sponge or flannel, wouldn't It get more dirty? Also, my flannels get really stinky, even when not used. Doesn't seem really hygienic to be rubbing that all over your body now, does it.
    I just think its way more simple to just get your products and rub them wherever you need to with your fingers. it's easier and oh won't need to worry about where your fingers have been (well, hopefully not anyway).


    Do you believe in love at first sight? It's an illusion, I don't care.
