Maybe coconut water or aloe vera gel, I imagine it'd feel weird but probably not regrettable.
I guess we've got to beat Cleopatra as our baseline with her bath of asp milk.
Marmite would probably veer into the regrettable category, and I'm saying that as a marmite enjoyer
Youβve got two Cleopatra stories mixed up there.
She was said to bathe in assβs (donkeyβs) milk.
She killed herself by holding an asp (snake) to her breast.
coconut water
in a heartbeat
aloe vera
I can imagine this feeling really tingly after a while, though not sure why.
asp milk
what is this? I googled and found nothing
marmite
I too partake joyfully in that hellish sludge, and have wondered what depths of depravity I would willingly go to to satisfy that dark craving
Wikipedia says donkey milk was used by Cleopatra, not asp milk. Maybe OP meant ass milk and got autocorrected, but that sounds really wrong.
An asp is a type of snake so that sounds uhh, difficult
You can milk snake venom. Still doesn't sound too easy.
what is this? I googled and found nothing
Ah I got my history slightly wrong, she bathed in donkey milk and just liked asps (a kind of snake)
Oobleck for the experience. It wouldn't clean you, but you'd have a story. Possibly mild regret if it's in a bathtub that you need to clean or a house who's plumbing you're responsible for afterwards.

Excuse you, this isn't unconventional at all, 69,000,000 Brits do it every morning

I'm gambling that the experience of it would mitigate how much of a pain in the ass the repercussions would be.
Edit: I suppose I ought to have looked before, but this appears to be not the healthiest decision (who'd have thoughβ½). Maybe we'll go with some kind of closest equivalent nontoxic paint?
Very fine charcoal powder maybe (and self-contained breathing apparatus).
Zero sugar energy drinks.
No sugar means its not gonna get sticky, it'd rinse right off.
I imagine a bunch of creams already use the b vitamins you'd get since they love shoving b vitamins in those.
And it'll actually drain when you're done and a quick rinse will get everything normal afterwards.
I was going to say heavy water, but TIL that it's not just chonky water. It can be toxic.
Like, barely toxic. Table salt will kill you faster.
One line of evidence for this is a literal mixup at a nuclear plant where they managed to put it in the water cooler for an extended period, with no ill effects.
A mixture of Vaseline and baby oil, just enough to keep it liquified.
