Grooming and Hygiene

[Beatle]

That made me laugh…poor Paula - in my head I picture u stepping on stuff all the time...

[Madame Buttonfly]

Well, it's true, I am a bit accident-prone…  At least trashing a few bottles of liquid soap won't be as expensive as last time I trashed the car (and then a few days later G's laptop).  Just gotta keep well away from G's new Aero jacket...!

Have Dr B travel sizes in peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, almond, baby (unscented), lavender - from memory that's probably about it.

All, let me know what you want to sample and it will be sorted!

[Beatle]

wow- Beatle makes a switch from peppermint to eucalyptus - still have some p and a new smell would be cool

[Dchill]

We can buy all of Dr B's stuff in bulk right up the street from me.  It's awesome stuff.

Mrs. G, could I possibly sample the Eucalyptus? Thanks!

[Madame Buttonfly]

Yes, indeed - eucalyptus samples set aside for Beats and LC.  First one I've tried is almond, it's lovely - just like marzipan.

For all of you guys that enjoy/use Dr. Bronner's products there is a documentary "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox".  Check it out, educate yourself.

Highly recommended.

Something I also 'recommend': putting leather inlay soles in your shoes. All my sneakers have a leather insole. Much better for your feet. Keeps your shoes clean as well.

how do u get shoes dirty INside ?

[DougNg]

You get a little less sock fuzz with leather insoles

[Beatle]

sock fuzz ? u guys are nuts…I´d get fuzzies growing on my head if I ever started worrying about something like that. I am not  Monkish enough for that...

[DougNg]

I actually wouldn't even have noticed if Seul didn't mention it…

[Seul]

Nah leather works better to prevent odours. I never am bothered with smelly feet, even after 8-10 hours of running about the workplace during a hectic day, but the leather helps with that.

I don't even know what 'sock fuzz' is  :-\

[LandoCal126 0]

I hate sock fuzz! I used to be a nutcase when I was in my sneaker obsession days and would clean my soles with a toothbrush after every wear as well as de-fuzzing the insides. I know, I am a creep.  ::) These days, I don't mind it at all but do pull it off if it gets noticeable…

[DougNg]

It's the fuzzies you get inside of your shoes from rubbing against your socks and…ohnevermind...

[Beatle]

never mind made my day**desperate

For insoles, try these:

Pedag Viva from Germany. Have never had better insoles and am thrilled they are available in the US. Price is totally justifiable. They are more sturdy than any other insoles I've had. The activated carbon works super well at keeping your feet fresh and the orthopedic shape works wonders to keep them from tiring out.

I´m saving the orthopedic gadgets for my 80´s….
