I thought you were talking about a body part and was completly off the mark. Could not find anything on me getting thinner!
I got it.
Great oxymoron; "growing thinner".

I was thinking of clothing, which also gets thinner as it wears.
Loved your comment, Babe! I'm with you!
I was thinking of a body part too, so I came up with "waist"..when you exercise (work it), you get thinner.
Fun and easy! Thanks!
I was thinking skin.....I don't know why. Very cute.
I thought lotion because the more it sinks into your skin, the thinner it gets. Oh well! Very good teaser!
I thought a lint roller! you have to tear off each sheet as you use it
I agree with Babe and HABS 100%!
I don't want to sound mean or anything, but that one was really easy. I was about to go shower so that one came really fast for me. I think the title gave away the answer.
But that teaser wasn't too bad.

I missed the mark again this time. This go round I will "blame" the fact that it only works if you are discussing a bar of soap. I've ued nothing but liquid soap for more than 20 years. Couldn't tell you when the last time I had a bar of soap was.
I was with auntiesis on this-thought it might be skin-Soap does make more sense, & it's clever, too!
Good one! I was completely off and didn't get it, but I thought it was a great blend of difficult and doable, which seems further validated by the difference in comments. Nice job!
