8 bathroom habits that ruin your feeling of freshness (and how to fix them)

8. Rushing Through Your After-Shower Routine

Skipping moisturizer, forgetting to dry fully, or not applying deodorant until late in the day can leave you feeling less than fresh.

Fix it:

• Take 2–3 minutes to complete your post-shower basics.
• Dry thoroughly (especially skin folds).
• Apply moisturizer while skin is still damp.
• Use deodorant before you get dressed.
