Hygiene reset of a 22-year-old guy

I’ve recently gotten really into doing hygiene “reset” days with my gf. The kind where you just completely reset your body, mind, and space. I’m 22 and honestly used to be pretty lazy with self-care. I’d brush my teeth, shower, and that was about it. But my girlfriend got me into doing proper hygiene routines and now it’s one of the best parts of my week.

Here’s what our little reset day looks like:
We both start with face masks. Hers is usually a Clay mask and mine’s a Charcoal one (from CVS). While those sit we pop in our Gnaw Labs teeth whitening strips and throw on some Foot masks (they’re weirdly satisfying). By the time everything’s done we both look ridiculous but feel brand new.

Then we’ll do massages, watch a movie, do a head rub, and just tidy up a bit. It feels like hitting the “refresh” button on life for a bit.

We usually end it by making a smoothie or ordering takeout and watching a movie. Nothing fancy, just something that makes us feel calm and put together before the week starts again.

I used to think hygiene routines were just for people who were super into skincare or beauty stuff, but now I totally get why everyone should do them. Feeling clean genuinely changes your whole mood.

Curious. what do you all include in your own hygiene reset days? Any underrated products or routines you swear by?
