What I Use in My 'Everything Shower'
16
items My everything showers are a long and detailed (as my friends like to call it) ritual, that is thorough as much as it is therapeutic. Not all products listed are done together and I didn't include ordinary tools such as nail clippers ect.

Hair
Quick note: I have 1C straight, dark hair, so these recommendations are based on that, but the products are pretty gentle and could work for other hair types too :)
I love this mask. It has rosemary mint to promote hair growth and it leaves my hair incredibly soft after I take it off! It's advised to use weekly.
Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Hair Masque - 12oz
I usually spray this before going out but when my hair needs extra help I like to use this only on my ends (leave on overnight) and then put my hair in a braid so the oil doesn't rub around on my pillows while I sleep and cause me acne. It's safe for...
OGX Renewing + Argan Oil of Morocco Weightless Healing Dry Oil Lightweight Hair Oil Mist - 4 fl oz
Great deep clean for buildup! I don't use too often since I don't really use product on my hair a lot but I'll wash with this if I put product in my hair that day.
Odele Clarifying Shampoo for Buildup Removal for All Hair Types - 13 fl oz
Face
I use these sparingly and not all together—just when I need a quick refresh that won’t upset my skin. I have oily, acne-prone skin, for reference.
I use this face mask specifically only once in and a while, mostly when I'm on my period or feel like my skin is super dehydrated and needs extra help.
Avatara Niacinamide Water Gel Face Mask - 0.71 fl oz
I do not use often! But when my skin feels like it needs a reset, I use this. It's a great exfoliant. I would advise to follow their directions exactly being that it's a “stronger” chemical.
AHA 30% + BHA 2% High-Strength Peeling Solution for Brightening - The Ordinary | Ulta Beauty
Great choice for dermaplaning. It's very similar to what aestheticians use. Make sure to shave at a 45 degree angle to avoid irritation and cuts and be cautious using this one specifically since it's so sharp.
Metal Facial Razor
Body
I like to keep my routine simple. I don't like using too much stuff on my skin at once, but I also want products that get the job done. Here's what I use in my shower.
I do not use any other body lotion. I've tried them all and this has so far been the best. It doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky, but it also doesn't leave it feeling like it's just on the surface. I get intense hydration, without overpaying for a ...
Jergens Hydrating Coconut Hand and Body Lotion For Dry Skin - 16.8 fl oz
Not as harsh as other exfoliating towels for me. I used to use loofas, but I noticed that when I was towel drying, it looked like dry, dead skin was getting removed. That's when I knew my loofah wasn't doing the jobs. So I switched!
Earth Therapeutics Natural Exfoliating Hydro Towel
The only body soap I use. My dr. told me that liquid body washes are horrible, and it caused my skin irritation! Now I only use this. It's gentle, fragrance-free, and does the job.
Dove Beauty Bar Soap for Women Sensitive Skin Fragrance Free and Hypoallergenic, 2.6 oz
My FAVORITE razors. I like these specifically because of the gel bars that smoothens the shave and the scent honestly just makes the experience even better.
Venus Comfortglide White Tea Women's Razor + 2 Razor Blade Refills
If I don't feel like paying extra, I'll buy these. Almost half the cost of the Comfort glide. But they are still better for my skin than the cheaper disposable razors. Those hurt!
Venus Sensitive Women's Disposable Razors - 3ct
I like to use this shaving cream because it smells good, and it has shea butter so it's doesn't leave my skin feeling irritated and dry.
eos Shea Better Women's Shave Cream - Vanilla Bliss - 7 fl oz
Feet & Hands
I think that most of our energy is stored in our feet and hands. And as easily as we can forget them, they're such an important part of us that deserves extra treatment.
I love using foot peels when I feel like my feet need extra help. Expect peeling! It leaves my skin super soft after.
Baby Foot Original Exfoliation Foot Peel - Lavender - 2.4 fl oz
I use these when I don't want to peel and want to moisturize me feet.
Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Repairing Foot Mask - 0.7 fl oz
When I'm looking for a spa type of night, I pull this bad boy out! I usually don't find that machines do a good job but this one is great!
Nekteck Shiatsu Foot Massager with Soothing Heat & Deep Kneading-Black
I like these because they claim to have collagen, shea butter, and vitamin E. Collagen (and overall moisturizing) is so important to keep your hands not only healthy, but looking young by improving elasticity.
