What time of day do you shower?!
NIGHT GANGGG 🌙
Usually at the middle of the night✨💅

Let's remember that personal hygiene isn't just for girls/women! It's important to educate boys about this as well. After all, we are all humans with the same needs :)
Or any gender !!
@@lisavalerie3691 there’s only 2 lol.
@@RonniesxLife no
@@wherearetheavocadosseilish2020 yes there is. male and female. And there are people who chose to not identity with either. non-binary. but that’s not a whole new gender lol.
Dude i did this and im a male and it was perfecu
It is SOOOOO important that you cover these topics. So many young girls (maybe even women) didn't have their mothers/parents help them with these tips. I use all these tips and have taught my young daughter the same, but I know MANY who follow minimal hygiene practices and it shows. It's not a fun topic, but def an important one. Great video!!! PS I shower before bed no matter how late or exhausted I am. ☺️
Beautiful said
I agree actually I can’t relate with these. Because my mom taught me to take care of myself, my hygiene, and mental health.
Skin and body self care is a great way to feel confident in yourself.
@Energetic Fag thank you for such kind words and I am so glad you found this video too. I hope you gain the confidence you deserve to have using these examples to share and shower (no pun intended) us all with the little things we are too shy or unsure of to ask. 🤗
I met my stepdaughter when she was 13 and she still asks me personal hygiene questions, it’s CRUCIAL to have a source of information for personal hygiene because it’s NOT common sense to most girls who don’t have another female role model.
As a single child, no parents and siblings, I badly need this. I just got out of an orphanage 2 years ago. Thanks for this.
Orphanage?
@@nnibbbb ?
I was neglected as a child and self-care wasn't encouraged. I'm learning now for the first time. I'm very grateful to channels like this. I wish you the best.
@@elliotRust29 most orphanages don’t exist no more 💀
@@nnibbbb they do? Where do you think children without parents live? Maybe they are not call orphanages in English anymore idk I'm not native English..but maybe the person is also not native Englisch so didn't know the name change
For a single dad that's new to this. Can you show us a close-up of how you attach the claw clip? Maybe a rebuk review of different clip types. For my 8 y.o. daughter with long hair. Just started using some of your routines/ product recommendations, thanks!
look for a simple claw clip tutorial on youtube! Also she has that kind of videos on her TikTok so check them out if you have TikTok! I hope I helped
Love to see single dad's killing it!!
You're really a great Dad
Wtf lmao these comments look like bots
@@user-hv4jp6sm7i people like being repetitively nice when it comes to stuff like that, and it happens a lot.
Another good idea is take a quick shower just with water either in the morning or evening because sometimes you sweat over night so it’s good to have a quick rinse in the morning if you showered with soap the evening before or visa versa
This is what I do because I work out everyday
that's a really good idea, especially for the hot summer months!
@@sugarrush4770 so like just wash hair with water and dry it ????
@@girlygirl336 ehhh honestly every time I’ve ever washed my hair with water only it turns out horrible. What I meant was put my hair up and not get it wet at all and use dry shampoo but if I’ve had a hard work out and the sweat is just too much I’ll have to wash my hair with soap. It’s hard for me…I work out 5 times a week so I was showering daily but it’s making me have dry skin and ruining my hair. No matter how much lotion or oils I put on 😩 so I’m still trying to figure out some routine for myself which is why I partly watched this video lol
@@sugarrush4770 try using dry shampoo! It’s a huge help
Girl i have depression since 2012, i was eleven and eventually went through that phase of not wanting to take showers and now im not sure i know how to do it.
This video literally changed my life.
Thank you ♥
Me too
🥺me too, i always thought i was alone
That’s a big step congrats! I’m so proud of you
Oh that’s so nasty not taking a shower just kidding! I do that too I’m so happy that you don’t have depression anymore I’m so happy this video made it easy for you
bestie i hope ur doing better now, and even if ur not, the best u can do is get out of bed everyday and make this day better than the last
As someone who wasn't really taught about personal hygiene and has struggled with depression for most of my life, this was helpful ❤ Thank you for sharing these tips
My guess is most people, even young ones, knows how to shower in a way that suits their needs? Something they should be taught is how to not waste water, how to be mindful when choosing soaps etc, how to pick sustainable habits. We need to think about our earth if we want to keep it 🌸
this is a really good point! something i should've mentioned in the video, is how important and helpful it is to use a handheld shower head. i find that i waste sooo much less water this way. because i can control where the shower head is going, the soap rinses off my body much faster, thus using less water. also, if i don't need to have the water on (if i'm washing my hair, face, etc), then i just turn it off until it's time to rinse! hopefully everyone will see this lol, i regret not mentioning these points in the video
When we bought our shower head we chose the one that use 60% less water.
Hi! I agree that we should talk about conserving water. However, I'd like to point out that assuming people know how to shower, or any other "basic" act of hygiene, is a privileged thought process. Not everyone had a proper guardian in their life who communicated or cared enough to teach them 💕 just food for thought!
@@DM-fp8rr same here, i shower every other day, shower i cant believe that some people shower two times a day! Lol
@@DM-fp8rr you could b accustomed to your won smells but if you feel comfortable then always do u
So glad I found your page!! As a young 19yr old I was never taught how to properly shower. I came across your tik tok , which has a lot of hair care routine that has helped me so much. I didn’t know how bad I was damaging my hair until you made me realize how amazing healthy hair can really be. Now I’m using products that make my hair look amazing , I have always dreamed about have long beautiful Silky hair💕. You have given me so many tips to always be fresh and take care of myself. I have unlocked a new way of loving myself. These tips will definitely be great when I have my own kids in the future. Thank you for sharing. 🥰
Rihht???? Im 30!! But i wasnt raised by my parents at all. This is informative
notes:
1. the amount of times you shower depends on your skin type but its better to shower every 1 or 2 days.
2. shower with lukewarm water!!
3. wash your hair first
4. when using shampoo, just clean your roots and scalp because thats where all the oil builds up not your roots.
5. when conditioning, you want to apply on the mid length of your hair to the ends and leave it there for 2 or 3 minutes.
6. while waiting for your conditioner, just wash your armpits with your HANDS loofas and stuff like that just harbor bacteria.
7. while cleaning your armpits, use castile soap DILUTED to get rid of your deodorant residue so your pores dont get clogged or in-grown hairs. it can also clog your razor!
8. dont use a wash cloths, loofas, body brushes and stuff like that. they harbor bacteria which gives you acne and other bad stuff. just use your HANDS.
9. apply your soap directly to your hand and rub it on your body. oh and after rinsing the soap, you can just shave your armpits
10. WASH YOUR BODY *AFTER* CONDITIONING! or you'll get back acne and just acne on your body in general. and it can also clog your pores.
11. put your hair in a clip or towel while lathering your body or your hair will pick up some of the body soap making your hair dry.
12. wash your face before washing your body.
13. bar soap doesnt harbor bacteria!
14. use irish spring if you are really really dirty and avoid it if you have sensitive skin at all costs!
15. after using irish spring use shade butter
16. places you forget to clean: behind your ears, in between rolls, underneath your knees, in-between your fingers, in-between your toes, and in your belly button!
17: Clean your feet last!
im too lazy to write everything else...

**Caribbean people left the chat**
This definitely depends on the environment. For us islanders, nothing less than showering twice a day is the norm. A healthy dose of lotion after a nice shower morning and evening works just fine.
Thank you for this video!! Informative as usual!!
Lmaooo Im from Trinidad and that's exactly my thought.
But ive thought of... just washing my body with water in the morning and in the evening after i workout i bathe with soap and everything.
True true 😄
🇹🇹🇹🇹
right
Yee cuz it hot e bui xD
I shower before bed without fail.
My friends think I'm nuts because even if we get back from a night out and I'm drunk, I always take my makeup off, shower and brush my teeth before bed 😂
I’m the same way!
Same ! Haha!
girl you have literally saved my life in all the categories of beauty 🥰
ahhh i'm so happy to hear this!!
SAMEEE!!
@@AudreyVictoria It’s so true! i’m so thankful for you ❤️
I just finished showering and used this whole routine and it helped me so much I feel so much cleaner. I will use these tips more often!
i love videos like these, especially i grew up in an abusive household where i wasn’t taught this. im 13, im still growing. but, it makes me happy that it isn’t treated like everyone knows it, because some people dont. i sadly didn’t and i’ve been getting better at it the past year :))
kudos to all the lovely creators helping others 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Man i feel so disgusting in my body. It's hard for me to accept that my body needs self care, i kind of just refuse it because there are many factors i don't like about myself. "Oh im already - so i wont do - there's no point"
I'm in an uncomfortable stage. Thank you for the video tho. I will try my best to take care of my body...
It's OK. You don't have to start at perfect. If you have zero days now, then 1 day a week will be an improvement. Nobody expects perfection from you. A therapist can help you with the feelings about your body as well. Just try for small improvements and if you can't do the whole routine, that's OK, because you tried and still made an improvement. Wherever you are at now is OK as long as you try to go forward.
@@Lizzard2060 ah thank you so much ! I actually just got out of shower and changed my bed sheets. I want to improve my mental health, thank you for your support :]
I wish you the best of luck
ur strong. u can do it:-)
These are really good tips, buy I do feel like it will depend on each person and their lifestyle. For me I cannot shower at night because of work, I get home 1130/1200 at night which is way too late. I prefer to wash my hair morning/early afternoon on my day off after a workout. I have trained my hair to the point I only have to wash it every 7 to 10 days before it gets oily.
this is very true! everyone has a different lifestyle, and sometimes showering at a certain in the morning is just overall better than showering at night. also, that's awesome that you only have to wash your hair every 7 to 10 days! i'd love to get my hair to that point
how did you train your hair i swear it doesn’t work for me
@@cassiebenson6402 according to dermatologists its not a thing since oil glands don't have receptors
Omg may you give us some tips how you trained your hair to be up to 7 to 10 days without washing? Itd help me a lot
@@lauramikic3636 Not a dermatologist but I am a hair stylist. You can't really "train" your oil glands to a new schedule, you have to work around your oil glands. I'm able to wear my hair for 6/7 days if I push it. It's a matter of finding the right products that target your hairs need without weighing it down. If you go for intensive moisture on wash day and you don't have a coarser hair texture, it's going to weigh your hair down. By day 3 or 4 it will most likely feel too oily to work with. Learning how to style your hair throughout that many days is just as important as finding the right products. I wait until I'm closer to a wash day to break out my dry shampoo to avoid too much build up of product. The closer you get to wash day/the oilier your hair is, the easier it is for it to hold texture. Nearing wash day I gravitate towards dutch braids, top knots, ponytails, or any type of curling/waving. Hope this helps!
found out about you on Instagram, and since been following all your hair care videos, watched this video yesterday and straight up took a good shower, you're like a big sister ❤️
Thank you so much, even as a person told by my mother how to keep up hygiene it’s so nice to have someone directly explain these things
of course!!
3:40 no to these items
10:00 wash these areas
10:28 wash your feet last
14:16 nails
Pro tip: The original Irish Spring helps deter bugs in the summer. I started washing with it and got significantly less mosquito bites.
Hmmm, I used it as a kid. But haven’t showered with it in recent years. I will be sure to try it🤔 thanks
Thank you for sharing I'm allergic to mosquito bites really bad
Your videos are a beautiful piece of work! I love the thought you put into your words & the layout of the video. Super simple and to the point. Love it
I dont watch many beauty experts but she really sounds she knows what she is talking about. I like the way she uses medical evidence research to back her statements which merits her opinions.
Oh girl. I agree with you on overly fragranced body washes or gels. Because as someone with eczema I am okay with fragranced soaps or body washes I do use washes for my eczema too. I prefer using body washes which are lightly scented and not overpowering, and making sure they’re good for my eczema. I use Kirkland bar soap and it’s amazing for people with sensitive skin, and eczema. They have the original scent which is my favorite, the fragrance free, and aloe vera.
So what kind of body wash are u using I have eczema too but I can't find any body wash that work for me in my country
My showering style has completely changes and have noticed a huge difference thanks ❤
I was just getting ready to take a shower! Talk about perfect timing!
Also, including an article?! LOVE YOUR CONTENT! 🥰💜
thank you!! most of my info comes from experience, but when i present it to you guys i always do some research first just to make sure i'm correct lol
If you are going to shower at night and therefore wash your hair at night DO NOT go to bed with damp hair. It will create the perfect environment for yeast/fungus to grow on your scalp because of the combination of humidity and heat that gets trapped between your hair and pillow or towel. Showering specifically with the purpose of also washing your hair is sometimes better in the morning for this reason.
This! The only think I do differently is I use a washcloth in circular motions a couple times a week as my exfoliant. Once a week maybe I will use a physical scrub. Otherwise I just use my hands with soap to clean. Feet are always last too!
audreys videos are really a BIG help!
so happy to hear this!! you guys are the best
You just make me happy I don’t know how but I relaxing when see you and hear your voice 🥺
LOVE the new editing! Also you look so pretty 😍❤
thank you!! i have a video editor now, he's awesome! i'm glad you're enjoying it 💜
I don’t know how I ended up here, but all I can say is that you gotta find what works for you, I have the same routine as her and she’s giving really good advice, specially with the order of every step.
We love an educated queen as you Audrey. 💙
Your voice is gentle and comfortable😊
I love how polite she is . Keep up the good work 👍🏽 👏
I just tried this routine and i feel so insanely clean rn, i love it thank you!
We are supposed to exfoliate after body wash?
you make the best beauty + hygiene videos, I always enjoy watching them. and as always your so pretty
Irish Spring and body wash from Bath and Body Works are exactly the same thing in that they’re just fragrance and strong, unnecessary surfactants. You can for sure use something to assist your body washing technique aside from soap. There are antibacterial gloves from supracor or exfoliating gloves that can be found in Target and many other stores. Throw them in the wash after your shower like you normally would a rag and you’re set to go.
This video was actually very helpful, thank you
After a couple nasty comments from people last year and depression. I’ve really upped my hygiene game since then. It has made me feel really confident about myself.
I grew up with my Grandmother. And everyone at the house had to take a shower two time a day. One in the morning and one at night. As an adult I continue that same shower routine and I love it . Everyone is different and have the right choose what is the best shower routine for them .
No one said to stop showering twice a day. However she’s just explaining (based off of facts) that showering twice a day isn’t that good for your skin.
waste of water with that kind of a routine huh
@@feyzaoz8536 😐
Girl you’re about to change my life with your channel
Loved the vibe of this video ❤
Thank you. I tried following this to the best of my ability with the resources I have, and the shower ended up feeling more fun and refreshing than normal. It was even shorter than my usual ones, too! I definitely plan on using this again and would recommend it to anyone
I had irish spring soap for a very long time. I started noticing my skin way getting very dry im glad you pointed it out.
Girls thanks for this I really needed this badly thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH you are a blessing 🤧 not only was this not confusing but it's so helpful, now hopefully it stays in my head by memory lol✨
DONT WASH YOUR HAIR EVERYDAY!!
Taking showers everyday is important! But only your body. I would suggest washing your hair every other day if you shower everyday. But if you shower every 2 days or more just do the whole routine
Thank you for everything you introduce and share with us love you keep going 💖💖💖💖💖💖
This is actually such a good video! Will be trying to add this to my routine!
I didn’t start becoming conscious of the way I took care of myself until SOPHOMORE year!! I didn’t even know we were supposed to wash our body! So please tell your children how to properly take care of themselves!
Lmao what?!
??? Excuse me
You didn't know you had to wash your body?
@@reiilun8648 as gross as it is,some people have parents that genuinely neglect their hygiene and dont teach their kids basic hygiene
I actually think that you should shower as many times as your ambient temperature demands, cuz I have to shower 2 times a day since I live in the tropics, and it’s really hot in here haha.
It's definitely related to climate. I live in finland and during the long winter months it gets so freezing cold if I shower more than once a day my skin cracks and i get eczema. In fact during winter I generally shower every other day
I wasn't ever really taught personal hygiene other then "you use shampoo in your hair, and body wash for your body." Kind of just winged it but I'm glad to find out I have been doing it *mostly* right.
This is what we actually needed !!!❤️
i personally use exfoliating gloves because it really gets all that dirt and exfoliates, things that hands and loofahs can’t do. it helps my skin stay smooth. ✨
The only soap that doesn't break out my skin so far is aveeno and dr sasquatch bar soaps. Though I usually use dr sasquatch if I need a little more pampering. Also the best shaving cream I have ever used is the dollar shave club shaving butter. A tiny bit goes a long way so it lasts forever.
hi audrey thanks for making this video and providing subtitles in different languages… its very helpful and very usefull.. omg thank you so much i am very happy
ooh my gosh!! yess!! thank you!! love you audrey!! 🫶
This is so helpful.. thank you ❤️😊
Great video! I actually already do all of these things in the shower. I thought everyone already knew these things lol! But surprisingly they don't. By the way I also like to take a shower/bath everyday at night. 🙂
thank you so much for this! i definitely did not think of those cleaning spots!
Dude I NEEDED THIS thank you SO much
You need to use a washcloth to remove the dead skin that feeds the B.O. causing bacteria. Btw washcloths ARE much more sanitary than a loofa and don't "spread bacteria," at least not when you use them correctly. You can get a pack of 7-10, use a fresh one each time you shower and then wash them all on laundry day.
With fragrance I like to spray it in the air and then quickly walk through the mist. If I want the fragrance to last, I'll wear a scented lotion too. Some scents smell better when they're layered.
This was really helpful😭❤️
Glad I found this. I grew up with just my mom and she's gone when I turned in the age where adolescence starts and I don't know what to do, thanks for this!
Thank you! I mean some people don’t even brush their tongues so this is great 😂 I shower the same way and it’s really the best.
My hair looks so fabulous after i follow your method, thanks!
thank u so much! i have back acne and that really helped!!! a new sub 🥰✨
Now I know how to properly shower 😂
Thank you for the tips.
I loveee dove bar soap, also don't know if this works for everyone, probably not, but dove bar soap cleared my face so muchhh
I started using it after buying expensive skin care that didnt work for me and ruined my skin completely
I would cry about my skin everyday, i didnt know why the products i was using weren't working... but they werent for me thats it. Dove bar soap has helped so much
Of course if anyone wants to try dove for their face, its better to have one exclusively for the face and another for your body, just to be safe
Oooh yess I remember I tried some terrible “skin care hack” and dove got me right so fast 👏🏽👏🏽
Yeyyyy new routinesssssss im sooo happyy im here since years hahahaha i loveee you so so much 😍😍 you're always gorgeous
Amazing video thanks very helpful ☺️💕
Wow i feel genius that my shower routine is exactly the same except the shaving part
This is like really random but she looks like her and her house smells like vanilla 😭😭
Lol second that
she looks so put together 😭😭💞
Yes
i just love your videos!!! so much good info that i didn't know about :D
Life changing......my life just got alot more organized
Hey, it was a very helpful video! I was just wondering what type of physical exfoliant you recommend? Because I use a Loofah sponge which harbours a lot of bacteria.
A scrub with sugar or jojoba beads or one of those korean exfoliating cloths like once a week on legs and arms
Any physical exfoliant should preferably be one that 'melts' like sugar or salt and don't scrub to hard :)
Exfoliating gloves, or cloth can also be very good!
This is true. I recently discovered my back acne were happening due to conditioner. I washed my hair by bringing them to the front since then and the back acne are gone.
honestly thank you so muchhhhhh this helped me clear my back acneeeee
This is SOOO HELPFUL TYSM
Ok so I think this explains all of the acne on my forehead, chest, and back... I'll try to do this stuff in this order to see if it'll get better. THANK YOU SO MUCK FOR THIS VIDEO☁️
I take a pretty long shower on Monday’s, and I take a quick shower on Wednesdays, and on Friday’s I wash my hair. So basically I wash my hair 2 times a week, but wash my body every other day.
Probs the most helpful shower video everrrrrrr
your hair looks really pretty in that side ponytail
thank you for the loofah comment because my friends make me feel dirty every time we talk about how we shower lmao. I just wash my body with my hands and they tell me i’m not getting clean
As a curly girl it’s tough because we need a lot of conditioners and deep conditioning 😂🥲 so it’s like you do your hair , but then you need to keep the conditioner in while doing the rest of your shower routine. I always feel like the conditioner is dripping down my face and neck 😪 I’m not sure if there’s a tip for that? I’d you have any ideas , please share 😂❤️ I love love love your content !
I finish my deep conditioning out of the shower! I put my hair in a shower cap and let that sit for about 30+ minutes, leaving a towel around my neck. Then I rinse it out upside down in the tub
Thank you so much, this video helped me a lot. As a kid I wouldn't shower often and I've been depressed for as long as I can remember. I neglected hygiene so this is going to help me slowly get back into the habit of having good hygiene :)
TYSMMM I have chest acne and I was always wondering why I have it and now I know its bc of makeup residue, you are my life saverrrrrr
as a girl whose mom isn't present to teach me these things, this video was really helpful for me, thank you ❤️
Your hygiene videos are the best!
I will try some of these steps tonight for my shower.
I am so extremely thankful for this. Bless my mom but by the time i was taking showers she didnt tell me what order to do it in or what to even do other than to just clean myself. I am do greatful for this tutorial because I needed this
I have always showered at night. I don’t want to go to bed dirty. I wash my hair daily because it is fine, thin and oily. I don’t wash my whole body daily but I wash the important parts. I use fragrance free Dove baby soap or occasionally Panoxyl because it is exfoliating and antibacterial. I only shave my legs in the bath with colloidal oatmeal. If I don’t I get razor burn.
My father swears by Wright’s Coal Tar bar soap, it’s an antibacterial soap that’s still gentle (comparative to other antibacterial soaps) for face + body, and as we always had a couple extra bars in the cupboard, my siblings + me always ended up using eventually. Its my default soap for travel, overnights or 2-3 week trips, I’ve even used it to get deodorant stains and smells out of sportswear! It’s the Ol’ Reliable of bar soap, if you don’t want to spring for Dr Bronner’s Castile
I'm definitely gonna do this😭❤ thank you
OMG! I'M LEARNING SO MUCH
When your OCD already has you doing this exact routine without knowing it.. & putting up ur hair in the shower bc you don’t like the feeling of loose hair getting stuck to your body 😂
lollllll literally. i used to shower every other day and it worked great, but now i shower everyday bc my ocd has gotten much worse over the past year. i must shower daily or i feel nasty even though i'm not. it's a pain but at least i kinda got something going
obviously everything works different for everyone but i cant get away with washing my body with MY HANDS i use exfoliating gloves with my unscented dove soap then a washcloth with my coffee body wash just what works for me
