In addition, be sure to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Floss<\/strong>. Floss to <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/Oral-Health\/Parsley-Seed-Oil---Breath-Gels-60-softgels.axd\">freshen breath<\/a>, prevent gingivitis, and remove those tiny bits of food your brush can\u2019t reach.<\/li><li><strong>Brush your tongue<\/strong>. Buildup on your tongue is the number one cause of bad breath, so give your tongue a thorough scrub each time you brush using either your toothbrush or a tongue scraper. <\/li><li><strong>Change your brush every 3 months<\/strong>. Over time bristles lose their form, making them less effective. Since a brush is critical to good oral hygiene, invest in a good one. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Header2\">Shower or Bathe Daily<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Showering strips your natural body oils, so don\u2019t over-scrub. Use a mild soap and exfoliate only once or twice a week. There\u2019s nothing better than a long, hot shower in the winter, but this can be especially drying to your skin, so turn down the heat and make it quick.&nbsp; For maximum hydration, <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/beauty-care\/skin-creams\/\">moisturize with skin creams<\/a> while your skin is still damp. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"    src=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/mother-daughter-hair-care-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"mother daughter hair care\" class=\"wp-image-7439\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/mother-daughter-hair-care-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/mother-daughter-hair-care-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/mother-daughter-hair-care-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/mother-daughter-hair-care.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Header3\">Keep Your Hair Clean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How frequently you wash your hair depends on how much oil your scalp produces. If it\u2019s oily, then a daily shampoo might do the trick. Dry or chemically treated hair, less frequently. To keep your hair looking fresh, consider a dry shampoo for those no-wash days or use <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/beauty-care\/hair-care\/\">natural hair care products<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Header4\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.botanicchoice.com\/beauty-care\/nail-care\/\">Nail Care<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your fingernails and toenails neatly trimmed. If wearing polish, make sure it\u2019s not chipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Header5\">Wash Hands Thoroughly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about all the things you touch during the day \u2013 handrails, doors, money, grocery carts. No wonder hands are the dirtiest part of our body. Hand washing prevents germs and disease and is especially important after using the restroom, yet about 70% of people admit to skipping this step. &nbsp;Wash hands several times a day for a full 20 seconds each time. Be sure to scrub the backs of the hands, in between fingers and under the nails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Header6\">Facial Cleanse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Washing your face is the most basic and essential step of any routine, says dermatologists. Our skin comes in contact with dirt, environmental pollutants and other factors each day that should be gently removed.&nbsp;Try to wash twice a day, morning and night, to avoid clogged pores, dullness and acne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good personal hygiene is indicative of your self-respect, not to mention making you more approachable to others. Be sure to always look your best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
