antibacterial soap → let naturally dry → antibacterial soap on your plugs/tunnels/hangers (if applicable) and then mint cream. or olive oil. or coconut oil. but only a little amount :) dry → insert your jewelery. repeat two-three times a week.

I air my ears out at least an hour every day. Really helps with moisture and the smell

Go slow and always keep them clean. Make sure to take your gauges out and clean them often

Don’t rush stretching, wait until they are fully healed before going up a size, use neosporin as lube, use wood or glass plugs, and always keep them clean.
