Reddit reviews Super Soft Silicone Face Cleanser and Massager Brush Manual Facial Cleansing Brush Handheld Mat Scrubber For Sensitive, Delicate, Dry Skin (4pcs set)

I just use these silicone scrubbers and they work great and are cheap https://www.amazon.com/Silicone-Cleanser-Massager-Cleansing-Sensitive/dp/B01M3Z5172/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2DPHDT6O6BQX1&keywords=silicone%2Bface%2Bscrubbers&qid=1564116786&refinements=p_72%3A2661618011&rnid=2661617011&s=gateway&sprefix=Silicone%2Bface%2Caps%2C207&sr=8-3&th=1

>I got my gallbladder taken out about 6 years ago. Since then, almost everytime I eat I have to poo kind of urgently afterwards. That has put me on a 3-5 shits a day schedule.

I gotta ask, is that a... normal consequence of having your gallbladder removed?

Diarrhea 3-5x/day, everyday, right after eating, for 6 years sounds awful to me, not to mention inconvenient. It doesn't seem like it bothers you all that much, though, so that's good at least.

To answer your question, there's nothing wrong with using a bidet without TP beforehand. The bidet was originally meant to be used in place of TP, after all.

However (and this is just me), the only thing I personally see an issue with is using your finger to scrub with when you're going that many times a day.

Yes, I know you said you wash your hands thoroughly afterwards, and it wouldn't be as big a deal if you were going once a day or so, like most people.

But if you're shitting 3-5 times a day every day, then I feel like there's inevitably gonna be a time when you're in a bit of a hurry and end up not washing your hands as thoroughly as you should. I also can't get past the thought of poo particles possibly getting under your fingernail and building up there.

(Btw, the cultures you mention that wash after shitting with water and their bare hand have really strict rules about it—for example, they only wash with their left hand, and never use the left hand to eat with, or prepare food with, or to shake hands with, etc.)

If the water pressure of the bidet isn't strong enough to blast off all of the poo without manual scrubbing, then what about spraying, giving your bum a quick once-over with a single wet wipe to dispatch any clingers, then giving another spritz for good measure? Only downside to that is you'd still be consuming a disposable good.

Another option is entering a time warp to the year 3000 and using a silicone scrubber in place of your finger or TP. They're antibacterial, last forever, gentle on the skin (they might look hard but the bristles are actually super soft), super cleansing (you're basically squeegee-ing your skin clean), and work up a great lather when used with soap. Not to mention, they boost circulation and feel pretty awesome. Using one feels like you're getting your bum kissed by a horde of small, friendly sea anemones.

There are silicone bath scrubbers meant for the whole body and smaller ones meant to be used for the face.

The face scrubbies are sufficiently size if you're just aiming to clean the immediate vicinity of your dooderhole. I bought mine in a 2-pack (different colors) at a drugstore. One I use for my face and armpits, the other is designated for the unholier areas of the body.

If you prefer the precision of your finger there's also silicone finger toothbrushes meant to brush a baby's teeth/gums with.

Btw (and sorry if this is TMI), I actually once knew a gay guy (a male go-go dancer, actually) who swore by using a silicone finger toothbrush and a drop of toothpaste "down there" to freshen up with. Just make sure nobody in your household has a baby and gets it mixed up with the baby care items.

How do I best deal with skin flakes? 23M here, I just get dead skin cells coming off white in certain parts of my face (eyebrow area, sides of nose, etc). Just washing face with water does work but I think I could benefit from like a face scrub thing - never used one before tho. Are these Soft Silicone Face Cleansers good for that purpose? https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01M3Z5172/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3TNO6FH8TWC8K&psc=1

I avoided it for a while but it only made things worse with the pile of dead skin. I started to use these silicone scrubbers and the results have been amazing. After a bit I’ve incorporated a chemical exfoliator for off days or mornings to specific parts of my face that handles it well. Hope this helps! where I bought it

I use a manual silicone face brush kinda like [these](Super Soft Silicone Face Cleanser and Massager Brush Manual Facial Cleansing Brush Handheld Mat Scrubber For Sensitive, Delicate, Dry Skin (4pcs set) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M3Z5172/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_24FTDbFVT18PJ) (although I’m sure you can buy one locally at a sephora/ulta/check target etc). It’s gentler on your skin (those nylon brushes allegedly cause microtears and inflammation) and I’ve used it for years already, good as new. Like someone else said, chemical exfoliation is supposed to be better for your skin. Check out recommendations at /r/skincareaddiction !

How about these brushes. They are silicone but they are cheap and come in a pack so whenever one gets ruined, you will still have a few to use.
