alright

I would love to show all y'all who are freaking out over a bath not being 100% clean the inside of the water lines that transport you the "clean" water coming out of your shower. Or the fact that all the water that exists on the planet has been urine. Or the fact that your entire bathroom is coated in a tiny fecal particles.

My point is there's no reason to obsess over being 100% clean and s*** like that.

In a public bath its courtesy to shower beforehand. In a private bath it's just preference.

And while I'm here talking, it's important to not go balls to the walls with products when bathing. Too much soap and such will absolutely destroy your skins microbiome. Very quickly you can end up drying your skin way the f*** out with soaps, then find yourself buying wild moisturizing stuff in an attempt to rectify the dryness, but now your skin is over-saturated with oils and it's struggling to get rid of them, and then it;s dry again, etc.

It's important to not start running on the skincare treadmill (shoutout the hedonic treadmill) because in this instance less is more.

Ppl in the PPOY thread were saying "maybe veganism the wave if it makes ya skin so nice" when I posted a selfie and I think that helps me a lot with my nice skin but really I think the biggest thing is that I just don't stress it out. I almost never wash my face with soap/cleanser, only water and scrubbing, and I only moisturize with coconut oil. Simple as.

Can't get the 90s r&b rain effect by taking a bath. Makes the karaoke experience less effective

brought my heartrate down from 151bpm to 97bpm in a matter of a few minutes in the middle of my second sauna session at the baths earlier today

i gotta say it feels really cool to be able to do that just by breath alone

I’m washing off in the shower before I lay down in the tub, I shower daily so no I’m not a nasty nigga but something don’t sit right with me about laying in my filth

ay whatever makes you feel relaxed that's the important part

baths is a time of leisure and comfort

Why this read like a G&G copypasta

do not liken my posts to that cesspool please

Bath time

your drying your skin out

i love taking hot baths after a workout. gets the extra sweat out, makes me drowsy and gets me ready for bed.

i put my laptop next to the bathtub and play interesting youtube videos to keep me entertained while i bathe for ~45 minutes.

they don't replace showers though

Put lube on that s***

what a coincidence im hitting the baths after physical therapy later today
