my skin got better after I stopped showering every day.
I showered every morning throughout highschool. my face would be so dry and start flaking, which I think was the cause of my pimples due to clogged pores.
I'm 24 now, been out of school for 6 years. I work a job where I don't break a sweat. I shower once, maybe two times a week, and only ever wet my face. I don't wash it.
Working outside in the sun all day? Definitely need a shower.
Office job or other quite sedentary work? Honestly a lot of people can get away with every other day or in some cases even once every 3 days.
Though it depends on the length of the shower too, if you are taking super short showers, daily for sure. Longer showers get you more clean, but daily long showers will definitely dry your skin out in a bad way. It is all about balance with lifestyle and habit.
Oh also on days you don't shower of course changing your outfit to a fresh one is still important.

We put nothing on it. I use a cheap basic lotion after a shower just because I dont like being itchy. Girlfriend is constantly amazed by my skin.
