...well - to be completely truthful, I like being dirty...grin. Washing of my face in the morning is refreshing, but other than that (and some care for the nether regions as required) I can be dirty for a long time...and still be comfortable.
Toothpicks are great for teeth brushing...er, picking.
If it's a group camp setting, we insist on a bleach or disinfectant hand wash prior to food preparation.

I've just researched fuller's earth a bit more and found out some really interesting things, for example it's commonly used in the east as a dry shampoo, it treats nappy rash, it absorbs excess oil and I'm guessing is anti fungicidal (based on what it does for nappy rash), great for the avoidance of trenchfoot perhaps? And as an added brucey bonus, it's completely 100% natural
When I can:
- heat water in billy to " as hot as I can stand it temp"
- strip down to the old birthday suit in a secluded spot
- coal tar or glycerin soap and a piece of an old trek towel (aka a chammi)
- wash and wipe esp. in the nooks and crannies
- don't shave unless I really have to
- I believe this is what is known as a "***** bath"?
- use antibac wipes and hand gel in between times
- boil chammi to sterilize after use. Dries fast as manmade
- use shemagh to dry up - this dries fast too
- change socks and grundies every other day unless in Norway: in which case wear 'em till they walk by themselves, sorry mother
- clean teeth every day as this is important! (I'm also diabetic)
- check for ticks at each "bath time" - little buggers!
Totally agree, cleanliness is next to godliness. I think its really important to keep clean especially where ticks and similar are concerned. If the weather is really cold, I'll still put a capfull of Detol in a mess tin of water, dip the corner of the towel in and give the old pits and bits a good wipe, and brush my teeth.
