Some extra hygiene tips 1. Use your body scrub (granules) to lightly scrub your inner ear when you're in the shower. When you're out of the shower, use non alcoholic witch hazel to sweep it up one more time. Then moisturise your ears. If you ever visit a spa for a facial, tell your aesthetician to extract any black heads or sebaceous fillaments in your ears. 2. When using mouthwash, take time and gargle deep in your throat to get rid of any odours down there. 3. Maybe once in a while, get a full body wax. Top to bottom. The new body hairs that will grow will be fresh helping with softness and removing body hairs with any product build up.
Hi these are some great tips except for the full body waxing. Waxing rips off a layer of skin every time you do it. If you do this regularly (once in 15 days), it can strip away so much so that your skin becomes burnt and raw over time. + its more detrimental than beneficial for your body hair because it causes ingrown hairs, breakouts, and infected hair follicles.
sharing my personal adhd (or general "lack of motivation") specific hygiene tips for my fellow mental illness havers: -if you can do your skincare in the shower then do it! I keep both my cleansers in my shower so they're right there and I don't have to worry about being careful to not get water running down my arms or in my hair etc. -in general just try to add things to your current routines, I do my skincare and a lot of hygiene stuff right after showering because I shower daily. maybe try adding a couple things when you brush your teeth in the morning and/or at night, or when you take your meds, etc. piggybacking off of an already existing routine in your life is a great way to start new stuff. expand your routines instead of creating a whole new one from scratch, that's a whole lot easier. -have a bunch of towels as backup so you don't have to do laundry right away but can still change them out somewhat regularly -START SMALL!!! building habits when you have adhd is very very difficult and it's not going to work if you just buy a ton of skincare/hygiene products all at once and expect to make a routine out of it immediately. I know you're tempted but don't let your hyperfixation let you make a bad finacnial decision. what I like to do bc I'm very conscious of how I spend money and add things to my routine, I just sit on things for a while. I'll do a bunch of research all at once and find products to add to my amazon wishlist but I only buy the essentials and that usually takes a few days of having things sit in my cart and me contemplating what exactly to buy. then I have more products on my wishlist to buy in the future and wait to buy them when I'm certain I'm comfortable with my current routine with the products I have already. my skincare routine is still very simple but it has changed quite a bit since I started skincare bc I've learned a lot more in that amount of time not just about skincare in general but about my skin and my body and what I like, like for example ik what type of moisturizer I like the texture of. I started with a more liquid moisturizer and didn't care for it but now my go-to is the thick creamy moisturizer because I love how it feels on my skin and it actually makes me want to use it, which is important with skincare!! -you're supposed to enjoy it!! hygiene and all this stuff is great but imo the main point is that it's supposed to be pleasant and make you feel good. taking care of my hygiene boosts my confidence even if it doesn't make that much of a difference to anyone else, it makes me feel better about myself. no one can smell me unless they're rlly close and the only person who gets that close (my partner) doesn't particularly care whether I smell like roses or smell like a human or smell a little sweaty. but I have to live with myself and I don't like smelling bad lmao so I'm doing this for ME. not really an adhd specific tip but I think it needs to be said!! -on that note, if having cute things helps you use things then buy cute things! who cares lol. I'm always so excited to use my facetory sleeping mask because the packaging is SO FREAKING CUTE and it smells nice (smell is not strong, I'm sensitive to strong scents!) and just feels good on my face. it's a bit pricey but to me it's worth it to pay a little extra for cute packaging sometimes bc it motivates me to use those things. even if you really want a particular product because it has amazing reviews and sounds like it'll work great for you, you can just... put it in a different container. u can do that btw no one will stop you. put your skincare in cute matchy containers if you want but also LABEL THEM and don't throw away the original containers, or keep the link to the product if you bought it online! there are so many times I forgot what thing does what at the start bc I switched them to cuter containers lmaooo.
Benzoyl peroxide wash under the armpits works the same as the glycolic toner!! Also i would be careful with the hydrogen peroxide/mouthwash hack on your teeth, it can damage your gums and wear down on your teeth. Gums can recede if you’re not careful, flossing IS so important!
Great video and love that you’re conscious and empathetic so that ppl of many different lifestyles and budgets can apply these tips. Also, I’ve worked in the dental field as well and we would tell patients “only floss the teeth you want to keep” 😁😂
O.M.G.! You are literally the best thing to happen to me! From an Ethiopian to an Ethiopian, its HARD to have a very hygienic routine so you really taught me and I'm so glad to have found your account, so two words, THANK YOU!!
Hi, great video. I also prefer baths. Some notes to what you have said: vinegar is acidic so is your pH, be careful not to imbalance it by adding vinegar too much or too often. Also I get what you mean by “baths detoxify” however, all you need to detoxify is your liver and kidneys. Bath softens dead skin and soaks off dirt but is not getting rid of inner impurities. I mention it partially for the shower girlies so they don’t feel like they need to detoxify harder or something 🥰
for those who have depression and can't manage to shower every day for whatever reason (no judgement), wash in the sink instead with an exfoliating glove. Put a towel or two on the floor, get a sink head extender so you can direct the water stream but don't put off washing up even if you can't do a full shower
i was interested in self-help videos and i didn't even have to look and i just saw your videos and they are AMAZING! I've learned so much and i'm so excited to see how your tips help me and others :) so thank you so much!! (BTW I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!!) And, girl, keep on preaching about stewardship; we need to hear God's blessings!
I have learnt so much from you, I never knew there was something called double coeanse, or oil cleanse. I was even confused when you said apple cider vinegar. I've learnt so much from you and I'm so grateful😊. And yes i struggle with brushing my teeth at night😅, a lot of us do. I love you Sara
I just started watching these and my amazon cart is already at 100, I didn't realize how many things I was missing in my hygiene routine! I never had any bad smells or anything so I thought I was doing good but like ..... THANK YOUUUU and please make this a series !! you're like our older sister giving us advice that we weren't taught
sara i have seen most of your videos and the products you use are stunning and amazing but since I live in ethiopia majority of the products arent found or are very expensive so can you do a video about a hygiene tips with home made product thank you
My skincare recommendation is Vaseline lotion the pink one is so amazing 10/10 but the green one is pretty nice as well but I haven’t tried the brown one yet but I recommend the pink one it’s so moisturizing and soft

I live in Ethiopia and i always wanted to be like you and i hope one day i will be like you and Please make your hygiene tips more adorable for us.and i have a question do you know Amharic?❤❤❤
sara, last time i clicked on one of your posts, i was determined to buy lume, but then i read some of the reviews. ppl were disappointed in a residue they found with the deodorant, so much so that i decided not to purchase it 😔 i'm assuming you never had that problem????? please let me know your thoughts
I’m not who you were asking, but ive used the unscented one and it works well and it feels like ang other deodorant, other than it it wears down faster than your typical dove so you might go through it quicker. I trust lume more than unilever though!
It takes the toxins from your mouth. Its antibacterial and antifungal which helps prevent oral thrush as well. Me personally i buy cloves and make a diy clove oil with coconut oil and extra virgin oil. Then oil pull with that. Cloves helps with gum health and prevents and/or cure gum disease. Cloves also helps with bad breath.
"level up"? or you can stop over focusing on your body, be human and accept you'll never be a barbie doll, and be free sweating is natural, just be clean to be healthy, these standards just exist to sell you more products and make you feel inadequate
this book has had a huuge positive impact on my life and helped me to understand my body more and more. It calls „The Encyclopedia of Ailments and Diseases: How to Heal the Conflicted Feelings, Emotions, and Thoughts at the Root of Illness“ form Jaques Martel ❤ @sarabeqele
