5. Leaving your soap in the same, grimey spot

If you use a bar of soap in your shower, chances are you have that little holder in the shower. Well, it’s also a high possibility that it could harbor a lot of nasty bacteria on it! Opt for a drainable soap dish or just body wash secured in a bottle.

6. Not washing your bathtub often enough

Relaxing in the bathtub can be so relaxing if you have a whole agenda set up for your “you” time. However, just be sure to clean your tub often if you’re an avid bath-taker. Otherwise, it’ll get pretty gross over time.

I bet a lot of women do this (including myself). Leaving your razor in the shower increases the risk of gathering nasty bacteria. Additionally, always be sure to replace any dull blades!

8. Not rinsing thoroughly enough

It’s important to utilize soap (not too much, of course) and make sure you’re getting nice and clean! But, it’s also important to remember to rinse thoroughly and not leave any harsh chemicals leftover. This can cause heavy skin irritation if not properly rinsed out!
