i use water, bar soap, and moisturizer and thats pretty much it. (and an epilator for hair removal)

it does keep me clean, but my skin is not so smooth. i would enjoy seeing what others around here do, or perhaps resources you find useful as well.

side tangents on nails, hair, etc. are also welcome :)

I eat clean which I think helps with good skin. And I try not to touch my face when I'm outside. I use a face cream every morning and moisturizer on my legs after shaving. I used to have to use after shave but my legs don't get irritated after shaving anymore so I stopped. I like to use scented body oil when I have some for a nice smell, last one I had was some rituals jasmine thing my mom gifted me. That's pretty much it though. People tell me I have nice skin.
