Sounds like there's a few issues -- some thoughts & ideas that I haven't seen mentioned:

  • Accept that no matter what someone is going to have some discomfort here -- with the current situation you're the one experiencing all the discomfort. He can't sleep with clothes, you can't sleep with dirty sheets and the smell in the room. Seems like a reasonable compromise that he should be the one to be washing the sheets to make you more comfortable.
  • Showering at night vs. in the morning -- I can relate to both of you on this. I have a tendency to sweat at night and wake up feeling like I need another shower in the morning, so if I'm going to take one shower a day my preference is to take it in the morning. I'll still shower before bed on days where I get gross.
  • Musk / BO - sounds like he needs charcoal added to his hygiene regimen. My wife is sensitive to smell, so I've done a lot of experimenting with this. Best combination I've found so far:
  • If he's not comfortable sleeping in underwear, chances are he's got the wrong underwear. If he finds the right pair, it should feel just as comfortable as going without. Another area that took me a lot of trial and error before I found something that worked. Expect to pay in the range of $15-20 or more per pair for quality.
    • Most of what I have now are briefs from Brooks (apparently now discontinued), with a few pairs from Ex-Officio. The Ex-Officio stuff is where I'd start for your husband since they're made to be anti-microbial to reduce odors.
  • It sounds like you need to do something about the laundry hamper. Some ideas:
    • If you have a washer in your apartment, have him put clothes directly into the washer when he takes them off.
    • If that's not an option, look into solutions designed for cloth diapers. We have kids and a Diaper Dekor Plus in our room along with a changing table -- it seems to do a good job at keeping smells contained, although it helps to toss a few activated charcoal packets in the bottom.

So, I grew up using these and having them used on me (Korean spas have ladies who will scrub all the dead skin off for you for a fee).

Rather than a shower, soaking in the tub for for about 15-20 minutes is much better than standing in the shower (grab a book or something). I tend to drain most of the water after my soak and use a bucket to rinse as I go (scrub, rinse off, scrub, rinse). If you need to do your back, the best is to have someone do it for you! If you have a family member or significant other who won't be grossed out by it, it's really the best way to reach your back.

Remember not to scrub too hard - you don't want to give yourself a rash (or what I call 때밀이 [ddaemiri] burn - ddae is what we call the grey dead skin that comes off)! There are also soaps that help with the whole process - you use it before you scrub.

[This exfoliating soap] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073H4L9ZR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Cd4OBb8CTBM3E) is the most common one that I've seen.

How to use the "exfoliating" soap:

  • Soak in the tub for 5-10 minutes

  • Create foam (rub it on a loofah, rub it between your hands, up to you!) and rub all over body

  • Let foam sit for another 5-10 minutes

  • Rinse soap off (get rid of all the foam!!)

  • Use your Italy towel to scrub

    Using the soap beforehand is supposed to make it easier for you to get all your dead skin stuff off :) Scrub gently!
u/DelicateLadyQueefs · 42 pointsr/popping

Whoa I thought this was more of a thing! Sorry for less explanation. That's the tool I use, got it off of Amazon, it's cheap and works kind of like a shaving razor except it has a thick edge - so it just scrapes along the skin, without cutting it. It scrapes up dead skin - it's extremely satisfying! I find that if I heavily lotion/oil my legs/arms that morning then have a hot soak, makes everything slough off that much easier. Your skin is nice and soft underneath.

Here's an after pic:

My before pic /u/mostlytolerable posted ;)

I originally got it to help with some ingrown hairs on my legs from waxing - and I found if I would do it before waxing, it would make the hairs come out more easily. But I got hooked when I saw all the gross dead I'd scrape off... I am an odd breed, but at least I'm among my people :)

Oh and I have zero idea why Amazon is now selling it for $60?? It is not worth that, but was a good value when it was like $15-20. Search for "skin scraper" - I'm sure there's a more technical name, but the internet will still know what you're talking about.

I use these Korean exfoliating cloths. The nice thing about them is by pressing lighter or harder you can control the exfoliation. They’re also pretty cheap, last a long time and are easy to use.

Korean exfoliating cloths

u/elliemich · 13 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I did a ton of research on ingrowns when I started getting them just shaving my legs (ugh). This is what has helped:

  • Exfoliate the area when you’re in the shower. Be diligent but gentle about it. I use this but idk if you should use something else since it’s your face. Somebody else weigh in?

  • Don’t shave with a razor. Get an electronic shaver that will give you a close shave. <- game changer right here.

  • Stridex in the red box after the area has dried and let it dry without putting anything else on it so the BHA has time to work. I’ll slap some lotion on once the BHA has fully dried (this FAB lotion is my favorite for this).

  • Don’t pick or pluck your ingrown hairs out. Only exfoliate and shave them down. This has been the hardest for me because I love the satisfaction of getting an ingrown unstuck but always end up doing more damage than good. And then it gets infected. And then I pick at it more. It’s a vicious cycle.

    I’d also take the fungal advice seriously. Ingrowns can get infected really fast and you need to be sure you’re treating the whole issue and not just part of it.

    Good luck! I hope it all heals soon!

    Edit: here’s a funny comic about ingrown hairs if you need a little pick me up while you’re battling this.
u/HeyYoEowyn · 8 pointsr/AskWomen
  • First, you may want to change waxers. Go to someone that knows how to deal with in-growns. Look for recommendations. I have been to multiple waxers and they are NOT all alike. Don't go to wax bar or a place that is turn-and-burn with their customers. I found a woman who is very good about waxing in a technique/angle that all but eliminates my in-growns -- every time I go to someone else, I get in-growns like clockwork and it takes me fucking three months to grow them out again. She also plucks my in-growns that are just beginning and is super thorough.

  • Second, try using Acnedote. It' s fucking amazing. Gentle, natural, and has a little bit of salicylic acid in it which will help get rid of bumps and ingrowns. Use it every day, even twice a day if you want. A topical benzoyl peroxide treatment may also help inflammation and help lighten the darkened skin.

  • Third, grow out a little bit more hair on your top triangle -- if you're up for it-- which lessens the amount of skin prone to in-growns (especially skin that is seen).

  • Fourth, don't fuck with your skin for at least 24-48 hours afterwards. Don't have sex, try to wear a loose skirt or at least not super tight jeans. Cotton panties if you have to, shower and use the scrub but gently. The less you mess with the skin while your pores are open the better. EVERY TIME I get waxed i want to immediately reap the reward and have hot slick canoodling, but resist the urge, i tell you. Resist.


    That's about it... I used to get cystic in-growns, huge bloody gross... like why I am I waxing if this is the result?? But with the right person, and with the acnedote and a little more care I've been able to all but eliminate them. Best of luck, fellow coarse-curly-pubic-haired person :)
u/Rach5585 · 7 pointsr/disability

Thick curly hair clean & tamed:

I am a fan of dry shampoo. Brands like batiste and shhh! Can be found at Target, Walmart, five below. IT'S BEST applied before bed, so it's absorbing oils overnight, comb out in the morning.

I have long hair that I sleep with it in braids or two buns on either side of my head. Don't put your hair up tightly, or you risk traction alopecia.

Using a wide tooth comb on wet washed hair with a leave in conditioner will help battle Frizz.


...................................................................

Clean and odor free:

The parts of you that stink are going to be creases and folds; so daily with mild soap (I like a small bit of dr. Bronner's of your preferred scent mixed with a basin of warm water, use a washcloth to apply to your dirty areas, then wipe with a rinse water rag twice to remove soap and dirt, then pat dry.

Areas of focus:

Face, neck, chin (especially creases if you have a double or triple chin),

Armpits

Under breasts/between breasts if you have big boobs.

Belly button

Genitals/groin, lifting under your gut if you have one,

Butt crack, under-cheeks if you have a big butt,

Hands

Feet.

For any open sores, clean according to your doctor's instructions. I have lymphedema which has a smell when it leaks. I use abdominal pads to soak up most of the liquid and medipore to cover the whole pad and adhere it to my skin. If it's very bad smelling, I change the dressing twice a day using skin prep pads to avoid skin tears, before applying the adhesive. Then I'll wrap that area with a clean roll of reusable fabric bandage and I have sometimes sprayed the fabric with a bit of febreeze on the side not touching my skin, or kept inexpensive activated charcoal packets tucked under the fabric but above the dressing, if that makes sense.



Looking your best re: skin flaking;

If your skin is flaking constantly and you don't have a diagnosed reason, your skin is most likely too dry, or you are not exfoliating well. I exfoliate twice a week by taking a long shower, but if you can use a bath to save water, that's better. (I can't get out of a bath on my own.)

Let your skin soak/become wet for 10+ minutes.

I use both a product exfoliant, (exfoliating body wash + scrub), and once that's done well I use a Korean body scrub washcloth like this :

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SG4YWYL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_p9RKDbDQZ4C7H

You can find them online or at Daiso for a dollar or so each, they're machine washable and very effective. You don't have to apply a ton of pressure and they don't damage living skin, only the dead skin.

After I have rinsed, I use a body oil or body cream, depending on the time of year and how my skin is behaving. A lotion with lanolin, cocoa butter, or almond oil should do well. I like natural lotions best.

As for clothes that look good, I find I feel best about myself in a maxi-cut skirt, as long as it's not so, long or loose it catches my wheelchair wheels. I look dressed up without having to have freshly shaved legs or a perfectly toned form. I pair bright skirts with a simple blouse that's roomy but conservatively cut, and then I pair a cardigan, denim jacket, or blazer if it's likely to be cold. I'm in clothes that are soft fabrics, not restrictive, and I look put together.

Simple jewelry like earrings OR a necklace, a ring, and a watch on opposite hands, plus a coordinating purse helps you look put together.

I also buy pretty patterned skirts to pair with a solid top, or I wear a patterned top with white jeans and a black blazer, etc.

Alternatively, a monochromatic look can be great, black pants, black pumps, white blouse, black purse? Add a red beaded chunky necklace, tiny silver and pearl ring, red headband or glasses, and tie a red and white scarf to the handle of your tote and you've gone from ” Olive garden waitress” to ” put together."

Keep a lint roller or brush in your car or tucked into a bag to clean off crumbs, pet hair, etc.

I hope this is helpful, feel free to ask if you have questions.

u/nwrwr · 6 pointsr/Rowing

Eucalyptus and Tea tree oil scrub! My teammate recommended and now I swear by it. I use it every couple of days in the shower when I have my conditioner in before I shave my legs. No more ingrown hairs or butt rash/acne. a link on Amazon to the one I use bath and body works sells one too I believe

u/lanabananaaas · 5 pointsr/muacjdiscussion

I love exfoliating, and if that's your goal, just get these. Wash your body with soap as usual, maybe take time to wash your hair/shave/etc (it works way better after you've been soaking a while), rinse, then start scrubbing with this thing (without soap at all). The amount of gross dead skin that you'll scrub away is just great. Very good for ingrown hairs too.

If you're looking for just a spa-like luxurious scrub, I like this. I don't find it nearly as effective as the previous towels, which are the best exfoliators I've used in general (not counting chemical exfoliators).

u/DragonBorn76 · 4 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I don't know if you suffer from the same thing I do but I'll describe and tell you what worked for me.

I do not have the stinging you are mentioning but I also don't shave my legs every day. My legs DO itch like crazy after I shave and I figured out that the reason is because when the hair grows back , the hair is trying to get through the skin and that causes the itching. I often find hairs are trapped under the skin ( ingrown ).

I found two solutions. Either

​

  1. use a depilatory cream instead of a razor blade. Hair removed using the depilatory cream has round edges rather than a sharp edge from being sliced off. So when hair grows back it's not causing your skin to itch.

  2. Exfoliate. I WAS using a very smooth pumice stone to GENTLY rub against the grain of the hair as it was growing back. Something like this but I recently found the Korean Exfoliating Scrub Mittens ( also called Italy green towel I think) and these things work AMAZING for exfoliating my legs. These have been talked about recently here on the forum. Exfoliating I find helps the hair get through the surface way easier and no more itching after one good exfoliation.

    ​

    After THAT I use Amalactin body lotion because it has alpha hydroxy in it which also helps with exfoliation.

    ​

    Okay , again I don't know if your issue is the same as mine. Like I don't really know what to say about why your legs are stinging other than if they are just too irritated because of what you are dealing with or are you scratching too? I know I will scratch my legs bloody before I figured out a solution and would do this unconsciously. Like I woke up at night scratching my legs.

Amazon pay Jerron right meow.

Mmm, goats

u/DogWalkerwithaCat · 3 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

My 2 points of advice based on my own experience:

  1. Stop using a loofah. Loofahs are too rough even for the skin on our bodies. If anything they make skin more vulnerable to bacteria. Use a SOFT clean cloth to wash with. Every couple of weeks only I use this glove, which is gentler than a loofah and rubs the dead skin off: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EL11LW0/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

  2. Use an AHA body lotion. I use Paula's Choice Resist Skin Revealing Body Lotion with 10% AHA and I started seeing results within a month after I started using it after every shower. I imagine it's pricey in Australia, but I'm so glad I found it.
u/SalvelinusFontinali · 2 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I bought a bottle of the Neutrogena Body Clear and mid way through the bottle I got what seemed like a reaction. Not sure if I scrubbed too hard but my whole chest broke out with little bumps and it took a couple weeks to go away. I havent dared to try it again but I do use stridex in the red box that seems to have helped more than anything. It's still not perfect but much improved!
I also started using a charcoal/mint exfoliator that I think has been helping [This one!] (https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Gate-Charcoal-Exfoliates-Recyclable/dp/B074K81746?th=1)

I’ve been waxing for about two and a half years. It’s the best. Depending on how sensitive you are it can be pretty uncomfortable but everyone is different. The waxer I went to was great and very experienced so I’m sure that helped with how how it felt to me.

I also starting using this. GiGi No Bump Body Scrub with Salicylic Acid for Ingrown Hair & Razor Burns, 6 oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DYJJQS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_trn6AbDRS3ZNF

Sure thing.
If you want the face mask, try this one but I highly suggest putting it in the coldest area of your refrigerator instead of the freezer.

For the body scrub, this Make sure you have no sensitivity or allergies to almond extract.

Finally, for protective facial moisturizer, I only apply a single layer of SPF15. I don't condone organic products, but since leaving sunscreen on for extended periods, I figured why the hell not and go organic for the last step. This route can get expensive really quickly, so any moisturizing facial SPF cream will do.

Literally drop everything you’re doing rn and buy some Tend Skin. It burns so good. And works so fast.

Tend Skin The Skin Care Solution For Unsightly Razor Bumps, Ingrown Hair And Razor Burns, 8 Fl. Oz Bottle https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001ECQ7G4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VJ-MDbQP3TDC4

Then if you wanna get really into it, make sure to exfoliate the area every day. If you’re shaving often I would use an anti-bump scrub like this one:

GiGi No Bump Body Scrub With Salicylic Acid for Ingrown Hair & Razor Burns https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DYJJQS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_aN-MDb4GTV8XM

When you use the scrub on the area make sure to start using it 1-2 days before shaving/waxing and then wait 24 hours (or until the next day) to start using it again. It’s very important that you use the scrub often to exfoliate as your hair starts to grow back. This removes the dead skin cells that hairs can get trapped under and lifts the hairs to promote them growing outward and not inward, causing those painful bumps. To really get the job done, try applying the scrub with an exfoliating mitt like this one:

Skinerals Scrubbing Exfoliator Mitt - Exfoliating Gloves To prep and exfoliate skin for self tanner sunless tanning (Exfoliator Mitt) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XNVKRMP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_bS-MDbNCC2Y5P

After shaving or waxing, apply some finipil to the area for the first few days as the skin is still raw and prone to infection. This will not only fight against infection and ingrowns but will have a really soothing and cooling effect on the skin. Pricey but worth it:

finipil Lait 50,1.5 fl oz, 44 ml https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C4YJL96/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_bT-MDbDVD2PJ8

Do all these things and you should be good. Remember: our skin isn’t meant to be removed in the first place. It won’t simply play nice just because you want it to. You’re going to get ingrowns and bumps and dark spots sometimes no matter how hard you try so you just have to accept that you’re human and be okay with it. But I definitely believe you can manage ingrowns greatly by committing to a regimen.

This is a Le Edge exfoliator. It's amazing at what it does, almost to a fault! If I EVER use it on my face now, it's once every two weeks or so. It's like a razor, but with a flat, dull, scraping metal edge instead of blades. It was seven dollars when I bought it on Amazon, then they stopped making it! I've been looking for an equivalent substitute ever since! They're so pricey now. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

My self-care is one of the first things that goes out the window when the inevitable wave of depression hits.

I’m actually pretty proud of myself though because lately I’ve been better about showering and brushing my hair!

This is my favorite body scrub! I always feel so much better after I use it in a warm shower! It makes me super smooth, helps with my dry skin and eczema, and smells amazing!

Sugar scrub like this you use it on the areas you're going to shave. Exfoliating with a loofah or whatever works too.

Exfoliate your legs once a week. That will help get rid of dead skin and help prevent ingrown hairs. I also use stidex pads after shaving. This is the mitt I use but I know you can find them cheaper here but to give you an idea. Also you can try a razor with less blades. It won't get as close to the skin and less of a change to cause ingrown hairs.

u/GiddyGamer · -1 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

Daily:
splash my face with cold water

Morning wash my face with Garnier Cleanser followed by Toner, Renewal Serum, then I massage my face & massage in moisturizer, followed by some (mostly for the smell) aftershave, and I massage my hairline with Vitamin E Oil, & after it feels like my face has absorbed it, i usually start applying sun protection for eyes and then the rest of my face & neck, exposed skin (arms, legs, etc) protection and hands

while at night, i take a shower (usually after a bit of exercise) and cleanse my face with cleanser lotion and my with a good body wash and follow later on (usually before i go to sleep) with another facial cleansing using the Garnier pure essentials & then some night cream

and I usually repeat this routine daily with the exceptions that I don't put the sun protection on when I won't be going outside in the day-time and I usually skip it all one day out of every week to let my skin rest

Non-daily:
On top of that, I usually try to shave facial hair every few days. I start by putting a hot rag over my face, then I use a cotton ball to rub on baby oil

and I exfoliate once a week (my body & my face) using a good facial exfoliating scrub that's either L'Oreal or the Body Shop and I use the same scrubber from the L'Oreal one for both
and scub my body with one of three scrubs using exfoliating gloves

after exfoliating my face, I usually follow with a moisturizing mask (using Honey, Fresh Lemon Juice, and Whole Wheat Flour) & I usually try to do it on the beginning of the week (Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday) so I can follow 3 days later with another one. If on Sunday, then I follow on Wednesday with a non-homemade mask and I try to follow at the end of the week (Thursday, Friday, or Saturday) with a 2nd homemade mask (Using caramel, baking soda, an egg yolk, whole milk, and 100% cocoa powder)

then, I usually moisturize my face and my body. I also try to moisturize my body at least once a week (sometimes more) by taking a bath using 2-cups of milk, fresh lemon juice (1/2 - 1 whole lemon), sometimes some honey, and specially formulated bubble bath.

I try to mix this with a relatively regular exercise schedule (cardio around 5 days a week (I'm researching different weigh-lifting regimens & Yoga & Calisthenics to add to this)) & a balanced diet (alot of fiber, fruit (daily), lots of water, vegetables when I can (salads, veggie sandwhiches when I can (I might start drinking a daily V8 for more)), White & Green Tea daily, limited sweets (usually just a nutrigrain when I do))

So, if you've actually read to this point I salute you. My question is if there's anything generally wrong with this routine (other than price & the fact that it shows my level of OCD)
