5. Wash your clothes after wearing them. In general, shirts should be washed after every use, while pants and shorts can be worn a few times before they require washing. Use your best judgment to determine how often to wash your clothes.
Remove any stains from your clothing before wearing them.
Iron out wrinkles, and use a lint-remover to remove unwanted lint and hair from clothing.
4. Wear deodorant. Anti-persperant helps control excessive sweat, while deodorant covers up unpleasant body odor caused by sweat. Consider using a natural, aluminum-free deodorant to reduce potential health risks associated with conventional deodorants.
If you choose not to wear deodorant on a daily basis, then consider wearing it on the days when you plan on sweating excessively, or for special occasions. Apply deodorant before playing sports, going to the gym, or attending a formal occasion.
If you don't wear deodorant, then rinse your underarms with soap and water throughout the day to remove unpleasant odor.

3. Brush your teeth every morning and evening.
Regular tooth-brushing helps prevent gum disease, which has been linked to other illnesses elsewhere in the body like heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It is especially important to brush teeth after eating sweets or acidic foods that cause tooth erosion.
To keep your gums extra strong, carry around a travel-sized toothbrush and toothpaste and brush your teeth in between meals.
Floss your teeth every night to prevent the gum disease Gingivitis.

2. Choose a daily face cleanser.
Remember that the skin on your face is more sensitive than on other parts of your body. You can either use your face cleanser in the shower or wash your face separately at the sink.
Take your skin type into account when choosing a face cleaner. If you have very dry skin, avoid products that contain a high alcohol contain, as this will further dry out your skin. If you have very sensitive skin, opt for hypo-allergenic products that contain less harsh chemicals.
If you wear a lot of makeup, find a cleanser that also specializes in removing makeup. Otherwise, buy a separate makeup remover and remove all makeup before washing your face at the end of the day.

 Part One: Putting Your Best Foot Forward
Shower daily. This is the best way to get rid of any dirt, sweat, and/or germs that your body may have accumulated throughout the day, and prevents pin worms and other hygiene-related diseases. As a plus, showering daily helps you feel, look, and smell your best throughout the day.
Use a loofah, sponge, or hand towel to gently scrub your entire body, removing dead skin cells and dirt.
If you don't want to wash your hair every day, then invest in a shower cap and wash your body with soap and water.
If you don't have time to shower, then use a hand towel to rinse your face and underarms at the end of the day.
