You only get one skin
Sometimes we neglect a crucial part of self care - moisturizing. Our skin lasts our entire lives, but we must treat it as the delicate tissue it is. The proper products can rehydrate your skin, seal in moisture, and form a barrier against allergens and contagions penetrating through your cells.
Angeline’s Addiction Oatmeal Coffee Exfoliating Bar in Shea Butter Base can help replenish lost moisture. People with severe eczema have said their skin started clearing after the first use. The aromatics are that of a coffee shop. Freshly ground beans and oatmeal flour moisturize, soothe, and heal skin.
No more dry, ashy patches. Love yourself and heal your skin.

GLOW UP GUIDE FOR 2025⠀
READ: On average, it takes more than 2 months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And considering that 2025 is precisely these many days away, why not start with our glow up plan already?
Physical Glow Up-
BODY
— 5-10K steps a day.
— 7-8 hours of sleep.
— workout everyday for 1 hr atleast- yoga/stretching/pilates/cardio. a workout may take one hour, but your mood will be boosted for the next 12 hours.
— posture training.
— sunlight exposure after waking up for at least 10 minutes.
NUTRITION
— 2-3 liters of water every day.
— limit your caffeine intake.
— avoid sugars as much as you can.
— high protein diet, pre and probiotics.
— more fruits and veggies (+ green smoothies if you like).
— no junk/processed food/trans fat.
— no eating after 8 pm.
SKINCARE
— be clear on your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive).
— once you're clear, use these accordingly- cleanser, toner, targeted serum, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen (≥50 spf).
— keep your bedding clean as well.
— no picking of skin on your lips, cuticle etc.
— gua sha to help improve blood circulation and lessen toxins.
— cold therapy may take three to five minutes of being uncomfortable, but your energy levels will be boosted for the rest of the day.
— remove makeup before you go to bed.
BODY CARE
— shower every day.
— exfoliate 2x a week.
— use body lotion (shea butter/aloe vera gel/coconut oil).
HAIR CARE
— wash hair 2-3x a week
— oil your scalp 2x a week, at least 3 hours before shampoo.
— hair mask 1x per week.
— never brush wet hair.
— use silk pillow case.
HYGIENE
— brush your teeth 2x a day, clean tongue and the roof of the mouth daily.
— floss daily.
— cut your nails 1x a week, never remove the cuticles.
— glycolic acid under arm for odor and discoloration.
— never use soap on your coochie.
Mental Glow Up-
MINDSET
— set clear goals- define and breakdown your aspirations.
— start your mornings with positive affirmations.
— surround yourself with uplifting content and people.
— be shamelessly selfish to your career and mental health, remove anyone or anything that doesn't align with your priorities and wellbeing.
— boost your brain health by these 4 neuroscience tools:
difficult first: start your day with the most difficult task (cortisol and dopamine are high in the body meaning that your body/mind is primed to work).
rest your eyes: introduce a micro-pause after learning by resting/closing your eyes - will help retain information better.
tomorrow's worries: write tomorrow's to-do list before bed as it is proven to be effective in helping you fall asleep.
find time to play: engage in low-stake play. can be anything you find fun but where the outcome doesn't matter (induces neuroplasticity + reduces stress).
MIND
— meditation might take as low as ten minutes, but your focus will be improved for the rest of the day.
— no social media after waking up and at least an hour before bed.
— keep aside 1 hr of time to read daily! reading a new book may take five hours, but you will keep the knowledge forever.
— journaling, gratitude.
— digital detox once a week or for 12 hours.
— limit unnecessary screentime, unfollow or cut off people you don't want to see.
JOURNALING
— choose a regular time each day to journal, making it a part of your routine.
— find a quiet, comfortable place free from distractions. light a candle if you want.
— allow your thoughts to flow without censoring or editing.
— write about your feelings and emotions to understand them better. write about things you are thankful for to boost your mood. write about your short-term and long-term goals. identify what triggers certain emotions or reactions
— set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write continuously during that time.
— reflect on both positive experiences and challenges.
— make lists, journal your thoughts on these questions.
— journal at night to clear your mind before bedtime, because emotions and thoughts lose their power once we acknowledge them.
— a gratitude practice may take five minutes, but your mindset will be shifted for the rest of the day.
AFFIRMATIONS
— customise affirmations to your needs.
Personal Life-
WEEKLY TASKS
— initiate small changes: begin with small, manageable tasks such as making your bed or cleaning your room every sunday.
— celebrate your success: reward yourself when you achieve your goals or have a consistently productive week. consider treats like buying flowers for yourself or watching your favorite show.
DAILY WORK
— set achievable goals: establish realistic goals for the day, week, or month ahead.
— track your progress.
— organise your work space, declutter your shelves etc.
— embrace the power of lists: keep a list of tasks to be done and their deadlines. this way, you start each day with a clear plan. to make it visually appealing and motivating, consider using productivity apps like evernote, habit tracker, or notion.
PRODUCTIVITY TIPS
— wake up early.
— plan ahead everything, do scheduling. you can use:
google calendar / notion / tasks .
— if the task takes less than 2 minutes to finish, do it immediately.
— countdown rule, if you are procrastinating, count 1-2-3-4-5 and jump.
— start slow, don't rush and try to do everything at one time.
— follow a proper routine, use app locks based on screentime.
— pomodoro technique, 25 min work, and 5 min break.
— schedule longer break times as well e.g 30 min nap.

"She sounds so familiar..."
Goap x reader situation where you're kind of seeing both of them at the same time without them knowing :/
Soap brings you up first. Talks about how he met this sweet thing at a bar one night.
"Gorgeous, curvy, an kind o a brat."
Ghost barely cares, Soap isn't even sure he's listening. He keeps going though, just excited to talk about you;
"Nice place; dark green silk sheets, vanilla candles, made a curated playlist jus for me."
Ghost pauses for a moment before he continues cleaning his boots.
"Fuckin perfect bird she is. Skin smells like shea butter. Got this cute little beauty mark on her left ass cheek. E'en got herself a gold chain wi ma name."
"She from the states?"
Ghost asks, setting his boots down.
"New York." Johnny nods, smiling.
"Tattoo on her left wrist?"
Ghost's mouth twitches, staring at the floor.
"Peonies...her favorite..."
Johnny's mouth goes dry. Simon stares at him, his eyes dark.
"You know 'er?"
Johnny swallows, knowing the answer already.
"Better than Jesus did his disciples."
Simon's voice is chilling. There's a tense moment. Soap feels like he could get crushed by the sheer weight of Simon's gaze alone.
"Let's go pay her a visit, hm?"
Simon doesn't wait for an answer from Johnny; it wasn't a question anyways.
You get a text from Soap:
"Outside :)"
'What a welcomed surprise' you think to yourself. You smile and walk to the door. Much to your shock and horror, there they both are on the other side.
"Greedy little thing, aren't you?"

What shampoos I think the clones use:
Sekido: Dove, extra moisturizing. Has sensitive skin and uses Anything with Shea Butter because his cortisol levels make his skin extra dry :( So he always smells like shea and cocoa butter. His natural body scent kinda smells like cinnamon though so you can smell that under the moisturizers. This is a long way of saying Sekido smells really damn good and I would shove my face in his chest if I thought I could get away with it.
Aizetsu: Suave and Dove. Also sensitive skin AND sensitive nose- can't handle heavy smells. Uses anything hypoallergenic so he won't break out. Naturally smells sorta minty?? Karaku: Old spice, which is just axe for adults. Also uses axe body wash but ONLY the wild bamboo one. Triple conditions his hair and lets it soak for 5-10 minutes for maximum penetration (ha!) Uses off-brand axe fragrance spray (Umbro "Action" specifically because it blends well with Wild Bamboo Axe Naturally smells like pine and ginger. Urogi: I was really tempted to say hand soap for his hair, but I think he takes slightly better care of himself than that. Uses pet shampoo like Zymox so it doesn't hurt his fur, feathers, and scales. He steals Karaku's deodorant. Natural scent smells like fur and feathers, subtly earthy, and light spice.

to my fellow humans struggling with bfrbs (body focused repetitive behaviours):
you are not a monster, you are not disgusting or shameful, you are a person worthy of love and care and respect :)
About a week ago, I had one of the worst episodes of skin biting in months, I'm doing better now but I wanted to put some tips and reminders here!
I didn't know that there was terms for my behaviours until like a few months ago (even though this has been a thing since I was really young), since shame and stigma got in the way of anyone in my family actually doing any research/getting me help (i.e. i had to deal with it on my own :<)
[note: a lot of these are for dermatophagia/onychophagia since I can talk from personal experience, feel free to add your own advice!]
Water is a big thing that can be triggering, since it can reveal flaps of skin (when your skin absorbs the water and your skin goes wrinkly), so a lot of these revolve around water.
If the skin around your fingers is affected, go wash your hands immediately after an episode of the repetitive behaviour! Rinsing my mouth also helps sometimes.
go get yourself some (cheap) hand cream from your local drugstore. I always keep moisturiser on me to use after I was my hands/do the dishes/have a shower/anytime my hands feel dry
Wash the dishes with gloves/use a dishmatic/if you have a dishwasher and it doesn't cost too much to use you can use that
Try turning off the water in your shower whilst applying soap to your body. If showers are completely too triggering, flannels and deodorant (but at least try to shower if you've exercised/once every few days). Equally, washing your hands should be fine, but if not, then hand sanitiser (be careful of cuts though!)
I exfoliate around my fingers with brown sugar like once every two days if my fingers don't hurt, I'm not sure of the proven efficacy of it removing dead skin from the surface but it makes me feel good (it's a good replacement activity)
nail oils! jojoba oil is known to be good, but i used to use virgin olive oil because it's also good (and it was something I had at home). Right now I just use shea butter! just moisturise in any way possible!
There are some things that people say such as bitter nail solutions and gum, but I used to just chew right through those, so remember that there is no one solution that works for everyone (some of these won't help you, and that's fine)
Plasters tend to stop air from getting to small cuts on your fingers so try not to use those (they weren't very helpful for me, at least)
When your hands start healing, gloves can help, but the fabric tends to catch onto skin/nails so be careful with that (and when you're putting on clothes in general)
Nail polish/rings if you like them! You shouldn't feel like you have to wait until your fingers are better before you can look nice :)
Knitting/fiddling with rings/making sure your doing something with your hands can be useful sometimes, but it's totally understandable if you just start with one little piece of skin and you end up like completely wrecking your fingers (when you start, you often can't stop)
Be aware of possible triggers. it's very hard to do this since sometimes episodes come out of nowhere, but I know i'm more likely to start biting my skin after stressful events or during task paralysis/when my brain is "stuck" (the logic is that my brain can be "stuck" on something else instead of all these impending things i have to do but can't get myself to start doing)
Remind yourself how much your hands help you to experience the world around you - You write, read, use technology, make and eat food, play your favourite games, hug your friends and create with your hands! You owe it to yourself to keep them safe and healthy where possible. Be compassionate with yourself (it will often be in spite of the way others treat you - but we are all here for you!)
talking about it can always help too with removing guilt/shame (I am always down to talk) and reading other posts on the tags here can feel v validating (@bfrb-culture-is has been so so helpful in making me feel less alone!)
I do hope this is helpful, this post is as much for me as it is for anyone else that comes across it <3
Have a good day~

Are we in agreement that if Ed does open an Inn, he'd have high quality soap provided for all skin types and hair types? Have that extra shea butter in it to make it smooth and not to dry you out? His inn renown for it's high quality soap, particularly the yummy lavender one, not the fact he used to be Blackbeard.

안녕하세요 cutie patooties! Today I’m going to go over my hand care routine, both daily and weekly ^-^ hand care is so important and although you don’t necessarily need to do these things, I love doing it to keep my hands so soft and youthful <3
Let’s give these precious little paws the love and care they deserve with a super kawaii hand care routine! Here’s how to pamper your hands and keep them irresistibly soft and charming every day! 🎀✨
Morning Hand care routine ⋆𐙚₊˚⊹♡
Exfoliate and cleanse ✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩
Exfoliation is a vital step in your morning routine to keep your hands looking and feeling silky smooth. I usually use my hello kitty scrub cause it’s hydrating too <3
Serum ✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩
Serums can be a game-changer in maintaining youthful and radiant hands. Look for a serum specifically formulated for hands, packed with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or vitamin C to boost hydration and combat signs of aging.
After Cleansing: Once your hands are cleansed and exfoliated, take a small amount of your preferred kawaii hand serum onto your fingertips. Dot the serum onto the back of one hand, then gently massage it into both hands using upward motions, focusing on areas that may show signs of aging or dryness.
Hand Cream ✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩
Using a nourishing hand cream in your morning routine is essential for maintaining soft, hydrated, and youthful-looking hands throughout the day. Look for a hand cream enriched with hydrating ingredients like shea butter, glycerin, or almond oil for maximum moisture.
SPF ✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩
Don’t forget to extend your sunscreen application to your hands! UV rays can cause premature aging, dark spots, and skin damage, making it crucial to apply a dedicated hand-specific SPF.
Hand care tips <3
Regular Hydration: Keep your hands hydrated throughout the day by applying hand cream frequently, especially after washing your hands, to prevent dryness.
Gentle Cleansing: Use mild, moisturizing hand washes or cleansers to cleanse your hands without stripping away natural oils.
Sun Protection: Apply a hand-specific SPF daily to shield your hands from harmful UV rays and prevent premature aging and sun damage.
Cuticle Care: Nourish and moisturize your cuticles regularly with cuticle oil or cream to maintain healthy, neat-looking nails.
Exfoliation: Incorporate gentle exfoliation once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells and reveal smoother hands.
Wear Gloves: Protect your hands from harsh chemicals, cold weather, or household chores by wearing gloves to maintain their softness.
Balanced Diet: Consume a diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants to promote overall skin health, benefiting your hands as well.
Stay Hydrated: Drink enough water daily to keep your skin, including your hands, properly hydrated from the inside out.
Avoid Harsh Soaps: Steer clear of harsh soaps or sanitizers that may dry out your hands excessively, causing irritation.
Until next time jellybeans <3

Great Butters and Oils for your Homemade Body Care
Here is my personal list of amazing additions to your homemade body care! Hopefully this can be some inspiration for your own recipes.
Olive Oil, Extra Virgin, Organic (EVOO)
Olive oil is high in polyphenols, squalene, and sterols. It is highly emollient and helps with inflamed skin conditions.
Cocoa Butter
Cocoa butter is actually a solid fat that comes from cocoa beans. It adds a good hardness to your soap bars, however you don't want to use more than about 15% in any recipe.
Macadamia Nut Oil
This oil is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, and like jojoba oil, it is similar to the natural oils created by our own skin. It will turn rancid more quickly than other oils, so if you plan on using macadamia nut oil, you might want to purchase it in smaller amounts.
Castor Oil
This oil is wonderful for creating an excellent lather in soaps.
Shea Butter
Shea butter is a softer butter than cocoa butter. It contains nutrients that are not affected by the saponification process when making soap.
Jojoba Oil
This oil is wonderful for dry and oily skin types. It gives a great protective barrier for over-washed hands or dry skin. It is also noted to help with acne, dermatitis, inflamed skin conditions, and oily skin conditions.
Sweet Almond Oil
Almond oil is extremely high in Vitamin E, and although it is decently emollient, it's also highly moisturizing!
Pumpkin Seed Oil
This oil is quickly absorbed, doesn't clog pores, but at the same time is highly moisturizing for your skin! It’s high fatty acid content makes it amazing for both dry and oily skin.
Argan Oil
Argan oil can be pretty expensive, besides creating a softer bar, so only 10% or less should be used for making soap. In recent years argan oil has really come into the spotlight for its potential to promote hair growth, and it’s anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.
Grape Seed Oil
This is a lightweight oil that is very high in anti-oxidant plant compounds. It's slightly astringent and emollient, meaning it soaks into your skin well and makes it great for homemade body care!
Hemp Seed Oil
This oil is great for soothing and healing the skin, due to being very high in fatty acids.
Rice Bran Oil
This oil is very hydrating and nourishing for the skin. Used topically, rice bran oil works to improve circulation and even out skin tone by brightening the complexion.

Scent: Peach Nectar and Mango and Coconut milk blend.
Ingredients: olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil (RSPO), sodium hydroxide, almond oil, castor oil, canola oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, sodium lactate, fragrance, micas, skin safe glow in the dark mica, kaolin clay, and biodegradable glitter.
Size: Aprox. 6-7 oz (170-198g). Because our soaps are handmade and hand cut, they may vary slightly in weight from bar to bar.
Notes: All listings are for one bar, unless otherwise noted. We recommend allowing your soap to dry completely between uses to extend their life. Our soap decks in poplar/cedar or beech help your bars dry!

Shea Tree (Butyrospermum parkii), one of the most important plants in the African & African diaspora materia medica.
Used for edible purposes in cooking
Used medicinally as a carrier butter or oil, for topical herbal preparations. Can be made into ointments, chest rubs, scalp & hot oil treatments, soaps, lip balms, whipped skin & hair butters, etc.
Reputed skin beauty secret for many African and African descendants. The butter is vitamin-rich, protects skin from harsh dry sandy winds + frosty chilly winds + intense sun rays alike, and keeps skin elastic.
Applied to hair strands and scalp. Prevents tangling, holds in hydration, aids styling, protects from sun damage, and enhances the hair's natural sheen. Contributes to retention of length because it deters hair strands from breakage and weakness.
The means of shea farming, harvesting, and product creation needs to be protected as the demand for shea products remains high. So, remember to support ethical suppliers and brands.

Organic Handmade Soap and Its Amazing Benefits
Organic handmade soap is crafted from natural ingredients, free from synthetic additives and harsh chemicals, making it a healthier choice for your skin and the environment. Unlike commercial soaps that often contain artificial fragrances, preservatives, and foaming agents, organic soaps use plant-based oils, essential oils, and natural colorants, offering a gentler cleanse. Please click here for more information.
One of the primary benefits of organic handmade soap is its ability to retain glycerin, a natural humectant that draws moisture to the skin, keeping it hydrated and soft. This helps prevent dryness, which is often a common issue with store-bought soaps that strip the skin of its natural oils. With organic soap, you’re not just cleansing but also moisturizing your skin with every wash.
Organic soaps are also more eco-friendly, often packaged in sustainable materials and produced through processes that minimize environmental impact. Ingredients are typically biodegradable, reducing water pollution and the carbon footprint, making them a mindful choice for eco-conscious consumers.
Lastly, organic soaps cater to specific skin needs with targeted ingredients. For example, tea tree oil can benefit acne-prone skin, while oatmeal and shea butter soothe sensitive or dry skin. By choosing a soap that addresses your skin’s unique needs, you can enjoy a personalized skincare experience that enhances your natural glow without compromising on health or sustainability.
