My Current Shower + Post Shower Favorites
Hi friends!
There is just something about an everything shower that makes me feel like I have my life together. I take an everything shower pretty much once a week, sometimes more if something is coming up or whatnot, maybe it's after a long day or before a trip or something but there is just something about taking an everything shower as a part of my weekly self care routine that I really just look forward to! I love all of the products that I am currently using and I feel like that helps with looking forward to the task! Over the past few months I have really found a routine that works really well for me, and these are the products I've been reaching for over and over again! I wanted to put a quick little disclaimer in here that I am by no means a skincare professional, dermatologist, esthetician, or even a beauty expert. These are really just products that work well for me and fit my personal preferences! Keeping in mind that everyone's skin, hair, and body are different, so what works for me may not work for everyone! I just love sharing products that I've genuinely enjoyed and repurchased because they've become staples in my routine and maybe you will find one of your own new favorites too!
Happy reading!
Shower Favorites
1. Tree Hut Tropic Glow Firming Shea Sugar Scrub
If I had to pick a favorite product from this entire list, this might be it. The Tree Hut Tropic Glow Firming Shea Sugar Scrub smells absolutely incredible and leaves my skin feeling so smooth and clean! I usually use it a couple of times a week, but it is a must for me to use before shaving! It helps get rid of any dry skin while making my skin feel ridiculously soft afterward.
2. Tree Hut Bare Tropic Glow Moisturizing Shave Oil
I used to think shave oil was unnecessary until I tried this one. The Tree Hut Bare Tropic Glow Moisturizing Shave Oil makes shaving so much easier and helps my razor work just so much more smoothly! I notice less irritation and my legs feel much softer afterward compared to when I use shaving cream or nothing when I would shave my legs.
3. Flamingo Non Disposable Razor with 5 Blades
I feel like for a long time I was going through many razors trying to find one that I like and I finally found one! It gives me a close shave without feeling harsh on my skin, and I love that the replacement blades are easy to find!
4. L'Oréal Elvive Shampoo and Conditioners
I actually rotate between two different L'Oréal shampoo and conditioner lines depending on what my hair needs or what I am feeling when I am in the shower!
Elvive Hyaluron + Plump Shampoo and Conditioner
When my hair feels really dry or needs a little extra hydration, this is the set I reach for. It leaves my hair feeling soft, hydrated, and lightweight without making it feel weighed down!
Elvive Total Repair 5 Damage Reversing Shampoo and Conditioner
When my hair has been through a lot of heat styling or just feels a little rough, I switch over to Total Repair 5. It helps my hair feel healthier and smoother!
When it comes to a cleanser in my skincare routine, I prefer to keep things simple. I have used the CeraVe cleanser for many years and it is absolutely a staple in my routine! It works well, doesn’t make my face feel stripped after I wash my face but it does feel clean which is exactly want I am wanting from a cleanser! I love that I can grab it from Target and it consistently works for me!
I used to use a loofah and then one day I was just over how frequently I would have to get a new one and it seemed wasteful so I decided to try an EcoTools cleansing net and I love it! I feel clean, it feels like it gently exfoliates while I am washing my body and I like that I can throw it in the washing machine to make sure that it is clean!
9. Naturium The Energizer Cooling Body Wash
This body wash has become one of my more recent favorites! I love the way that it makes my skin feel, it leaves me feeling refreshed and clean without drying out my skin! It has quickly earned a permanent place in my shower.
10. Pink Silicone Face Scrubber
I have been using a little silicone scrubber to wash my face in the shower and I absolutely love it. It is gentle but it feels like it cleaning my face better than my hands or even like a washcloth! I will link one here but I also get them in a two pack from TJ Maxx for like $3 or something like that!
Post-Shower Favorites
The first thing I do when I get out of the shower is apply body oil while my skin is still slightly damp. I've been loving the Saltair body oil because it absorbs surprisingly well and helps lock in moisture. It leaves my skin feeling soft and glowy without feeling greasy because I literally can’t handle when my skin feels gross, ESPECIALLY post shower. I know using a body oil is good for your skin so that’s why I use one but the texture of any body oil makes my skin crawl haha so I was happy to find one that wasn’t so bad!
My Favorite Lotions
I know using multiple lotions sounds a little extra, but I actually use the different products on different parts of my body depending on what I want them to do/what they say they do haha!
eos Shea Butter Moisture Body Lotion in Vanilla Cashmere (Legs)
If you've spent any time on TikTok, you've probably heard people talking about Vanilla Cashmere. I have been using this for a couple of years now and the hype is justified. I use this lotion primarily on my legs, and it leaves them feeling incredibly soft especially when you use it after the Tree Hut Tropic Glow Firming Shea Sugar Scrub, and the Tree Hut Bare Tropic Glow Moisturizing Shave Oil! The scent is warm, cozy, and sweet without being overwhelming, and it lingers just enough throughout the day!
Saltair Retinol Revive Night Lotion (Arms, Chest, and Neck)
For my arms, chest, and neck, I've been loving the Saltair Retinol Revive Night Lotion. It feels lightweight while still being hydrating, and I like that it contains retinol, especially for my chest and neck area!
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Firming Lotion (Stomach, Glutes, and Upper Thighs)
This lotion smells exactly like chocolate cake to me, which is honestly reason enough to use it. I mainly use Palmer's Firming Lotion on my stomach, glutes, and upper thighs. Whether the firming benefits are magic or not, I enjoy using it and it keeps my skin feeling moisturized and smooth!
If I were to go back in my Target and Amazon orders I would say that I have probably bought this product over 25 times, maybe even more. I love it so much, Dustin uses it every day, I give it to people as gifts, I seriously love this Ouai leave in Conditioner so much! This helps detangle my hair, reduce frizz, and leave it feeling soft without weighing it down. It also smells amazing, which is always a bonus!
