I think it's feminine, did you pick it up from your female family members?

I'm not even joking or being sarcastic. There's somethings I picked up being around my sister and mom's unknowingly.

Do you put your thigh in the edge of the bed and lotion your legs and thighs :yeshrug:

Nah :heh: both my parents would always tell me to put lotion on before I left out the house.
I usually do it in the bathroom once I get out the shower.

Then put cologne on and my clothes right after.

Just something I been doing since I could dress myself. I grew up with both parents in the house and my dad would say it just as much as my mom would, to both my sister and I.

Ehh.... I try to give my skin a break every now and then. I don't really get ashy and my skin is naturally soft :yeshrug:

Products are to be used according to a purpose, not just because

But when I do use it I try to get everything

Interesting. :ohhh:

Never thought about it like that. I do this even when I'm not going anywhere. Maybe out of habit/routine, maybe b/c I don't want dry skin...maybe a bit of both
But maybe I should let my skin breathe a bit every now and then.

I also wonder if the lotion dilutes my cologne? My wife says she can't really smell it on me by the end of the day, and I use unscented lotion

Yeah lifestyle is a major factor. I'm extreme home body, I left my house yesterday, for the first time in 4 weeks. So of course it was less lotion and no deodorant type of time, a cleanse of sorts. If I was out getting beat down by life and the ozone everyday I would probably use more products lol

Fragrances def react with other products and also your own skin. They can smell different on different bodies

I've worked from home since the start of the pandemic, and I've kept my normal routine. I do/did everything like I was going into the office
just so once we got to this point where we're back a few days in the office, I wouldn't have to dramatically shift back to my "normal" routine.

Even when I was just in front of the computer, I always showered and did my hygiene routine. I don't think my wife would've had it any other way tbh...
I feel weird if I don't shower, lotion, put fresh clothes on...

yeah ... societal factors. i would def put lotions and fragrance on when i have company over, just because i guess guys are expecting girls to smell like roses and vanilla and whatnot. i even do it every now and then if i go to sleep alone just to feel luxurious lol. but still, i just don't think i need it to be using it on a regular for no reason. despite my irregular use, my lover still gushed about how soft my skin was :wub: if it aint broke, don't fix it :yeshrug:

washing your butt and clean clothes is one thing, but stuff like lotions and deodorants is kinda tricky in the "hygiene" game because it's not always "healthy" for you. i use them on a as needed basis if i have an option.

Lotion? We been off that pleigboi. I only put lotion on in the winter sometimes when my skin get too dry. I don’t have time to be lathering up my legs and shyt everyday like a girl. I’m a chief in ashy gang. But I’m lighter skinned so I can get away with that shyt. But even if I wasn’t, fukk that lotion shyt. I be trying to tell these chicks that the thing about lotion is, if you don’t put it on everyday, it make your shyt dryer. They be like, well yeah, that’s why you have to put it on everyday. That’s too much smh
