First cleanse with an antibacterial soap. Dove Antibacterial and Dial are my two favorite brands. You'll want to leave the soap on for a few minutes, especially in those prone to be stinky parts like your underarms!

If you don't like Dove, you can use Dial. Same concept: lather this up on your wash cloth or African net and let it sit on the extra stinky parts of your body. Has to be the gold dial I don't make the rules

YOU HAVE TO USE A WASHCLOTH KR AFRICAN NET! Just lathering the soap on your hands to wash your body is not enough. You have to scrub! I personally rotate between a washcloth and African net

Use a body wash for your second cleanse! Much like double cleansing for your face, except you're doing it for your body. I love a body wash that packs a punch and this one by Dove has vitamin C in it for brightening

Next up is your face! If I need to remove makeup, I'll use this, followed by an oil cleanser, followed by a foaming or gel cleanser (depending on the season). Hands down, Albolene is the BEST makeup remover and leaves your skin so clean and nourished...

When I'm not wearing my makeup, my first cleanse for my face is always an oil cleanser and this one by Skin1004 is my favorite! I've gone through three bottles of this stuff and will never switch

Once again a fantastic option for your second cleanse. For me she works wonders and I feel like people either love this product or hate it and there's no in between. I love it and it works well for me, also the fact that it's a scrub gives me a littl...

Now that you know to use your wash cloth and/or African net to scrub your legs (you don't just let water run down your legs friends) get yourself a pumice stone and scrub the bottom of your feet. SCRUB THEM

Now baby you're almost the cleanest you've ever been! Now use a shower oil for a little extra razzle dazzle. There are some shower oils that lather like a body wash (like this one!) and some that just lock in moisture. I'm linking both for you stinky...

This shower oil does not lather like a body wash so you can apply this whole still damp and your skin will absorb it immediately! Another favorite of mine.

After all we've been through I better not catch you using a bathroom hand towel TO DRY YOUR FACE! Use these instead. They're super hygenic and don't breed tons of bacteria. Honestly just ditch the towel all together and use these for your body too

Like I said, I better not see you putting a towel to your clean face! But if cotton towels are more practical than single use towels, you need to have multiple towels! Towels need to be switched out and washed often. Don't use fabric softener!
