Ladies, we all know an ‘everything shower’ is like the military routine of self-face trends.
As calming as the aftermath is, the process, however, is pretty tedious. Rule of thumb: always schedule your ‘everything shower’ on a less busy day. This ritual is not for the faint-hearted, especially on a packed day.
When it comes to personal hygiene, there’s the two-minute quick shower, the regular routine shower and then there’s the one where each part of your body gets extra TLC.
Picture this: it’s a quiet Saturday afternoon, you’ve just finished reading your favourite book or watching your favourite movie – now, it’s time to dedicate an hour and a half to some rigorous self-care.
While TikTok show’s us the quick and snappy versions of everyone’s ‘everything shower’ it is harder to note down the process – specifically, the order of use.
To save you time and energy, we deep-dived into the beauty black hole and found the perfect regimen for this routine. Take a look below for a complete step-by-step breakdown, along with the list of products you’ll need.
Step 1: Create an aura that will help you relax. Light up your choice of soothing candle and put it on your good-mood playlist.
Step 2: Whether you’ve been home or have just returned, wipe your day off from your face using a cleansing balm and remove the outside dirt, pollution and leftover sunscreen.
Step 3: Apply a detoxifying face mask and follow it up with a nourishing hair mark simultaneously.
Step 4: Enter the shower and dry brush yourself to boost your circulation.
Step 5: Wash away the hair and face mask to begin the next stage of deep cleanse. Shampoo your hair, but this time, use a scalp massager to clean your scalp and improve your head hygiene before you head towards conditioning. Since you’ve already prepped your hair with a mask and shampooed it, finish the process with a gentle conditioner.
Step 6: Next up, opt for an exfoliating yet gentle scrub and give yourself a nice massage.
Step 7: Rinse it off and then apply your body cleanser before shaving all the areas required.
Step 8: Once out of the shower, moisturise your whole body face with your choice of hydrating cream or body oil.
Step 9: Before drying your hair, apply a leave-in scalp treatment to improve the health of your hair and end the process with a generous amount of frizz-control serum to achieve that shiny look.
Step 10: Drink a tall glass of water and take a nap because you earned it.
