We’ve all been familiar with the idea of an ‘everything shower’, even if we didn’t know it by name until recently. This wellness trend is straightforward: an extensive shower process consisting of, you guessed it, everything.
Some TikTok beauty trends are a bit out there, but others are absolute gems that are both smart and just plain fun. One of our absolute favourites? The “everything shower.” The “everything shower” is not just about efficiency; it's about indulging in a fun and satisfying self-care routine. It's about including every single step of your bathing routine in one session under hot water. Here is your guide to mastering the everything shower.
1. Set the Mood
Create a relaxing atmosphere with candles, a calming playlist, and a warm bathroom to make your everything shower feel like a spa experience.
2. Gather Your Essentials
Prepare all your products beforehand. You’ll need:
- Facial cleanser
- Shampoo and conditioner
- Body wash or soap
- Shaving essentials
- Hair and face masks
- Loofah or washcloth
- Loving Tan Deluxe Tan Remover
- Loving Tan Tan Removing & Skin Polishing Glove
- Moisturiser or body oil
3. Tan Remover
Start by applying your Loving Tan Deluxe Tan Remover to remove any unwanted, residual self-tan. Allow it to work into your skin for 10 minutes before hopping into the shower. This gentle formulation contains premium ingredients to expertly lift away all built-up tan, leaving your skin feeling silky smooth.
Once in the shower, use your Loving Tan Tan Removing & Skin Polishing Glove in circular motions under hot water to remove your tan.
4. Hair Care
Thoroughly wet your hair and apply shampoo. Massage your scalp, rinse, and use a conditioner or hair mask.
5. Face Cleanse
Cleanse your face with a gentle facial cleanser, massaging it in circular motions, then rinse.
6. Shave
Apply shaving cream or gel and shave, benefiting from the close shave achieved after exfoliation.
7. Body Wash
Lather up with body wash or soap using a loofah or washcloth, then rinse thoroughly.
8. Exfoliate
Use your Tan Removing & Skin Polishing Glove to exfoliate your body, remove any existing tan, and smooth your skin. This is especially important if you plan on self-tanning after your shower to ensure that all hair and body-care products are entirely removed before your next application!
9. Final Rinse
Rinse your hair and body with cooler water to close pores and seal hair cuticles.
10. Post-Shower Care
Pat your skin dry, then apply moisturiser or body oil. Follow up with serum and moisturiser for your face. If you plan on applying self-tan, skip the moisturiser and oil step to prevent them from acting as barriers to your tan’s development.
If you plan to extend your showering into a pamper night with a self-tan application, leave enough time for your pores to cool and close before applying. For the best results, we usually recommend waiting 12+ hours between exfoliating and applying your tan.
An everything shower is more than just a routine; it's a ritual of self-care and indulgence. It’s about taking the time to care for yourself, de-stress, and emerge feeling rejuvenated from head to toe. Whether you do it weekly or as an occasional treat, mastering the everything shower can elevate your self-care game to new heights. So, go ahead, indulge in this ultimate shower experience, and enjoy the blissful results.
With Loving Tan, your skin will glow even more beautifully after each everything shower. Happy pampering!
