Has anyone here tried caffeinated soap? Does it work? Is it worth me getting some? What kind of tricks do you do other than coffee?

Caffeinated soap? What the fuck!? Human skin isn't porous. So somehow I doubt it would work.

That's really not to much. I work at a coffee shop. I have around 6-7 shots of espresso a day.

heres my tips (i work nights 10pm - 9am)

redbull or something like that to begin with - coffee does shit all for me.
green tea or any kind of tea really will help - it stimulates the brain rather than just being stimulated on coffee. then when the morning hits, water is actually good at helping you stay awake.

hope this helps.

Not quite correct I'm afraid. You're right, the skin itself isn't porous, but the layer of oils on the skin allow the absorbtion of chemicals that are miscible in those oils. For example, it's possible to get drunk from an alcohol sauna.

Caffeine though, I doubt it would work. Try electrodes, under the toenails, that'll keep you up. Or put you to sleep for a very long time.

haven't heard of caffeinated soap, but I have seen where caffeine is added to lotions and such to help tighten up the skin. It's only temporary though. I think I saw it at Bath & Body works

I drink Camp Coffee

I find that keeps me awake for ages. Your probably wondering what it is right?

Well.... It's like any other coffee, but instead of granuals, it's this syrup stuff, but you make the coffee exactly the same as nomal, just use this stuff instead.

It tastes -abit- different, but I find it nice, but then it might be an aquired taste.

For schule. I do the coffee thing, but I was curious to see if it was worth it to try that soap. I think I will anyhow since no one seems to have had personal experience with it. I may as well give it a go. I've had experience keeping myself up for several days for schule in the past, but I just had to ask about that soap. tongue.gif

I don't do drugs or caffeine and absolutely nothing could keep me awake for days, I can practically sleep standing up. Seriously I can fall asleep mid conversation. I love it I never have to worry about falling asleep when I need to but if I have to stay up for any reason I am screwed...

I spent two years at starbucks as a teenager.
We used to dump espresso on top of the real carmel and repeat shots as if our lives depended on it.

I don't think I slept for two years.

That stupid hell nearly worked me to death. Our store was only closed for 6 hours. 2 of those hours are spent opening and closing (cleaning and set up or tear down). So, I managed 4 hours of sleep a night. I fucking hate that place.

I don't think I slept for two years.
