No, we are not going to suggest that you completely empty your bathroom cabinet. You love your daily care products and we don't blame you! But did you know that you might be able to significantly reduce the amount you lubricate and scrub every day?
It's also so nice, a mouth completely full of fresh-foaming toothpaste. But for a better effect, you certainly don't have to aim a hefty dollop at your toothbrush. How much?

Do you clean your teeth twice a day and did you know that the portion of toothpaste you need for brushing is only the size of a pea? That's all you need to let all the active ingredients do their job.
There was once a nice mnemonic for soaking your hair, which is also fresh and fruity. Do you have short to medium hair? Then an amount the size of a blackberry is sufficient. Do you have long hair? Then grab a portion the size of a strawberry.
Quite relevant during the hot, sunny summer days. But actually you should lubricate every day. Even if it is just a day cream with an SPF that suits your skin. Okay, back to the quantity:if you're rubbing from head to toe, it's best to use 7 teaspoons full. If today only your face and neck see the sun, 1 teaspoon is enough. Sunscreen is one of those things that you shouldn't skimp on, so just apply. Or even better… let yourself be rubbed!
