In a chat with People, the music producer revealed that he doesn’t shower daily — a choice he says stems from a desire to preserve his skin's natural oils.

Selena Gomez’s beau Benny Blanco shares his bold take on hygiene

For Benny Blanco, the ultimate rule is simple: "Don’t stink. Do all the stuff."

He continued, "I really think it's important to have good skin. I have a facialist and she changed my life. I do whatever she says."

When it comes to hair care, he also takes a minimalist approach. "I also don't believe in always shampooing your hair or conditioning your hair," he said

"I’m really clean, but I don’t shower every day," Blanco, who is reportedly in a relationship with Selena Gomez since 2023 explained.

"Some people I know shower two to three times a day, but I feel like the oils on your skin don’t have time to rejuvenate and get juicy."

"I don’t believe in always shampooing or conditioning your hair," he shared.

Naturally, fans were curious about how this unorthodox routine translates into his scent.

According to Blanco, it’s all about creating a memorable aroma. "I like to use a hodgepodge," he said.

"I want to smell [like] tobacco, but also like cotton candy. I want there to be an aroma as I’m walking by. I want it to smell a little bit like man, a little bit feminine — I definitely lean a little more feminine in every sense."

Fans post hilarious reactions to Benny Blanco's hygiene confession

As expected, the internet had plenty to say about Benny Blanco's confession. While some fans were supportive of his unique approach, others found it a bit too much information.

One fan wrote, "Oh we definitely didn’t need to know that."

Another added, "Selena please break up with him I can’t take it anymore."



 



 

A follower remarked, "People are suppose to shower at least 3-4 times a week."

Someone else declared, "The Batman wouldn’t have been able to beat this information out of me."



 



 



 

"This really the type of s**t you should be taking to your grave — all jokes aside," stated a user.



 

"How adorable is this young man. I would be so proud if he was my son. His mom raised him right! Selena is a lucky girl. 😊" said another user.

One person explained, "Yeah, not all men would go there but I like that he is so comfortable in his skin."
