🌸 Sunday Reset Shower Routine to Feel Like That Girl
Sunday is the perfect day to reset, refresh, and realign with your best self. A solid shower routine can be your sacred space to relax, let go of stress, and walk out feeling like that girl—clean, confident, and glowing.
This is your ultimate guide to building a Sunday reset shower routine that doesn’t just clean your skin, but also clears your mind, softens your soul, and sets you up for a beautiful new week. ✨
🕯 1. Set the Mood: Create a Spa-Like Vibe
Before you even turn on the water:
- Light a candle (vanilla, lavender, or eucalyptus are perfect).
- Put on a calming playlist (spa, lo-fi, or soft R&B).
- Dim the lights or bring in a warm lamp.
- Lay out a clean towel, cozy robe, and comfy clothes for after your shower.
This turns your bathroom into a sanctuary—just for you.
🛁 2. Dry Brush Your Body (Optional but Powerful)
- Use a natural bristle brush to gently exfoliate dry skin.
- Start from your feet and brush upward toward your heart in long strokes.
- Benefits: boosts circulation, promotes lymphatic drainage, and preps your skin for better product absorption.
Use this 1–2 times a week max.
🌿 3. Get in: Start with a Warm Water Rinse
Warm water:
- Opens your pores
- Loosens dirt and sweat
- Preps your skin for cleansing and exfoliation
Take a few deep breaths under the water and let it wash away your mental clutter from the week.
🧼 4. Cleanse Gently but Thoroughly
Use a pH-balanced, non-drying body wash.
Recommended products:
- CeraVe Hydrating Body Wash
- Dove Deep Moisture
- Native Coconut & Vanilla
Use an exfoliating glove or a soft loofah to gently lather and cleanse your entire body.
Make sure to focus on:
- Neck
- Behind ears
- Back
- Underarms
- Feet
🌸 5. Exfoliate Like a Pro
Once your body is clean:
- Apply a sugar or salt scrub to areas like thighs, arms, butt, and back of knees.
- Massage in circular motions to remove dead skin and boost glow.
Recommended scrubs:
- Tree Hut Moroccan Rose
- Frank Body Coffee Scrub
Don’t exfoliate more than 2x a week. Be gentle—your skin is not a dirty pan!
🪒 6. Shaving (Optional, But Make It Luxurious)
If you’re shaving:
- Use a rich shave butter or coconut oil to soften hair and protect your skin.
- Shave in the direction of hair growth first, then against it for a close shave (if skin isn’t sensitive).
- Rinse your razor in hot water often and use a fresh blade for best results.
Post-shave = rinse with cool water to close pores and calm skin.
🌬 7. Cool Water Rinse to Finish
This small step has big benefits:
- Closes pores
- Smooths hair cuticles
- Reduces inflammation
- Leaves you feeling more refreshed and energized
It’s like a physical reset for your body!
🧴 8. After-Shower Care: Lock in the Glow
Immediately after stepping out (while skin is damp):
- Apply a rich body lotion or body oil. Try:
- Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion
- Neutrogena Body Oil (light sesame)
- Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula
For extra glow: Layer a scented lotion with body spray or perfume from the same scent family.
👃 9. Freshen Up & Feminine Hygiene
- Apply a clean, aluminum-free deodorant.
- Spritz a soft feminine mist or perfume.
- Clean your ears, clip nails, tweeze brows—whatever helps you feel more “put together.”
✨ 10. Bonus: Skin, Hair & Vibes
Face mask: While doing your body routine, apply a hydrating or detoxifying face mask.
Hair treatment: Use a deep conditioner or hair mask if it’s wash day.
Mental reset: Light a candle, write a few journal prompts, or just stretch in silence.
🌷 Final Touch: Comfy Clothes, Soft Music, and Clean Sheets
Once you’re done:
- Slip into your favorite loungewear.
- Play a cozy playlist.
- Pour a tea or lemon water.
- Curl into fresh sheets feeling fresh, feminine, and ready for a glowing week ahead.
🌟 Final Thoughts
Being that girl isn’t about perfection—it’s about showing up for yourself. A Sunday reset shower routine is your way of saying, “I deserve to feel clean, cared for, and confident.”
Your week starts now. And you’re already glowing. 💗
