Reddit mentions of Salux Nylon Japanese Beauty Skin Bath Wash Cloth/towel (3) Blue

I was just busting your balls;) I think it's more that I'm a 300 lb dude, so I have way more surface area to wash than to shave;)

I wet myself down then rub the soap bar on various places to get just enough soap on my body for a nice lather, then use a salux nylon japanese beauty skin bath wash towel (highly recommend, I used to use a loofa and a wash cloth and this thing blows away both of them and is super cheap) It's very exfoliating, plus dries super quick so no bacterial issues (unlike the loofa that has a constant wet spot in the middle) and behaves like a wash towel, which is super useful for getting those hard to reach places like your back.

I found these wash cloths to be really helpful. Doesn’t clear it entirely, but helps reduce the amount of bumps from KP pretty drastically. This plus a lotion like AmLactin or something with an AHA to help moisturize/turnover should do the trick.

I had the same issue and someone on r/skincareaddiction recommended these ,

My life changed. No more breakouts in weird areas.

You should check out /r/SkincareAddiction or /r/asianbeauty , the sidebar has some great tips and recommendations for beginners. Don't forget to introduce one product at a time at intervals of two week, so that if you react badly to something, you know what caused it.

Face-

Cleanser- Use a pH balanced cleanser like cetaphil or cerave. There's other great products listed on the subreddit if those don't work out for you. Your face is a bit acidic and basic cleansers ruin the acidity, resulting in dry skin.

Exfoliate - Chemical exfoliation is the way to go as physical exfoliation can damage the skin if done incorrectly or done too frequently, not to mention you can chemically exfoliate daily. Exfoliation can be categorized into BHA and AHA and the distinction between the two can be found here. Chemical exfoliation is used after cleansing and drying the face and has to be left in for about 20-30 minutes before moisturizing.

Moisturize - Finding the right moisturizer is more difficult for some than others and a great place to start is by looking at the recommended ones in the above subreddits.

Sunscreen - Suncreens can be separated into physical and chemical and many prefer physical over the chemical because it usually offers better protection and is better for sensitive skin, but physical sunscreen can also come with the side effect of leaving a white cast. Not all do so it's important to research and find one that doesn;t. If I remember correctly a spf of 30 and above is recommended and don't forget that you also need protection from UVA rays in addition to the UVB rays as spf only accounts for UVB.

Other - There's more advanced stuff like Vitamin C serums and such but it's better not to get into that right from the beginning. Also change out your pillow sheet often and drink lots of water.


Body-

Your body isn't as sensitive as you face so as long as you wash, moisturize, and use sunscreen, you should be fine. Personally, I use this every other day with a body wash and moisturize with this, but it's only because I have some acne scars on my body and I'm trying to get rid of them.

The issue(s) you need help with: I feel like a skin care disaster, I definitely need help developing a routine.

Skin type: Combo I guess? I have no idea. Some parts of my skin are dry and sensitive, like my eyelids. Others can be oily like my forehead. The pores on my nose are humongous and I'd like to reduce them. I was told my arms have keratosis pilaris but I never followed up with that.

Routine: I shower exclusively at night, occasionally using Public Goods Moisturizer and Lotion afterwards. I had been using Cerave but i got suckered into good marketing. I switch between using Ivory Aloe, Public Goods Body Wash, and Public Goods Bar Soap on Salux Wash Cloths. I was using a new loofah every month but I switched to the wash cloths and saw an improvement. Since I have three I was going to rotate them every few months but I realize i should probably wash and rotate them more often. I was also considering getting the Super Hard ones because my skin doesn't seem to be clearing up like it did when I first started using the cloths.

PM me for photos cause I don't wanna put my face on the internet

I agree with /u/rorowhat in that the brands need some work. People aren't going to order a basket for things they can easily buy right now. Adding in some products people may not know of like these body scrubbers (which are absolutely amazing, and work 100% better than a loofah) would be a good idea. Also more artisanal soaps/lotions. The type of people who are buying this basket won't care if it adds $5-8 if they get cooler stuff they otherwise wouldn't have learned about. Additionally, it may be a good idea to have baskets with a certain focus-- hair/body/face etc. I'm finicky about shampoos and body washes, as many people are, so I'd be more likely to buy a box with things like: lip balm, hand lotion, cuticle cream, nail file, sheet mask than the box you have. Or if you want to stay more cleanliness oriented even: floss, motorized tooth brush (you can send replacement heads for repeat customers rather than traditional tooth brushes), mouth wash, hand soap, artisanal bar soap, scrubber, poo pourri, etc.
I'd caution you on using shampoo/deodorant as a staple, because a lot of the time they depend on the person's body.

You had some grammatical errors in the "about us" tab, which I'm cleaning up. I work as an editor for a few of my Uni's publications, and the About Us really stood out to me. I strongly urge you to tidy some of the errors, as they seem unprofessional. I'm also rewording some redundancies and taking out info I think is crimping your style.

Idk your target demo, but from a perspective of a broke college student who has to pay all her own bills: I can't afford $30 for someone to ship me toothpaste and whatnot. No, it's not cheaper for me to pay you $30 when 80% of the products in the basket I don't have any use for. The broke college kid in me would not use this service. It seems like your target market needs to be 25-45-somethings (mom's of college students would probably love to send this as a care package to their kids). You're targeting people with extra cash, who will want to try new soaps, lotions, body scrubs, etc. As such, I removed all talk of your age/your friends' opinions. Your age doesn't matter. Your friends don't matter. Your client matters. You need to relate to them as much as possible.

Here is a retouched version with what I think is a stronger about-me. I don't mean to step on your toes or anything, but since that section sounded a bit eh to me, it's what I focused on:

Like many concepts, HYGEIA CLUB was born out of a desire for convenience. Founder Paul Parker brainstormed various hygienic issues with his friends and coworkers, and found that the biggest issues most people had were running out of product. Who really wants brave the store on a Saturday for toothpaste? There had to be a way to never run out of floss that doesn't constitute purchasing a 42 pack; HYGEIA CLUB was born.

We automatically deliver a care package, filled with essential toiletries, right to your door. Never again will you worry about running out of hand soap or fresh toothbrushes. What's more, we're still less expensive than what you can pick up at your local store, including delivery. Simple enough, right? We think so too.

If you want to keep your working and fix the errors, here that is:

Like many concepts, HYGEIA CLUB was born out of necessity. Founder Paul Parker began discussing his various hygienic issues with other college colleagues, ^ which ranged ^ [[[colons do not go here]]] from running low on toothpaste (and never wanting to run to the store just for that one item) to never quite knowing when to replace his toothbrush. [[[ Paul's colleagues, ranging from freshman to senior level, Everyone agreed to having these situations and with such the idea for HYGEIA CLUB was born.]]] this whole sentence doesn't make sense, and you've already used some form of "range"

For a very low cost, we automatically deliver a care package filled with essential toiletries right to your door so that you never have to worry about running out. What's more, even delivered^,^ we're still less expensive than what you can pick up at your local store, saving both time and money. Simple enough, right? We think so too.
