Whether you're starting out a new semester, returning to work or just need some "me time," taking a nice, relaxing bath is the best way to decompress after a long day. Use these bath essentials to make the end of your day the best part!
1. Suction Cup
This neat plastic contraption covers the overflow drain in your bathtub, which means you can finally feel like you're in a relaxing soaker rather than a half-filled kitchen sink. Just place the suction cup over the drain and viola! Bath time is on!
2. Bath Bombs
First it was bath pearls, then it was bath salts, now it's bath bombs. Rather than spending ten dollars a pop on those "fancy" bath bombs from Lush, hit up your favorite online shops like Amazon and Etsy to get more fizz for your buck.
3. Wine
Wine + bath = relaxed. Really relaxed. Just remember to get out of the tub before you take your mid-wine nap.
4. Candles
Who doesn't feel relaxed when they walk into an over priced boutique? Harness the essence of Anthropologie with this favorite hipster candle and slip away into your bohemian dreams with hints of tropical fruits and sugared citrus.
5. Bath Pillow
The wall on the bathtub is hard and unsupportive. Grab this bath pillow and get comfortable for a long, relaxing bath that you won't want to leave.
6. Face Mask
Bath time isn't complete if you don't treat yo'self! Make sure you enhance your spa experience with a face mask that will wash away all the troubles of adulting once and for all.
7. Waterproof Speakers
No spa day is complete without the soothing voice of Michael Buble or nature sounds. Whether you like to pretend you're in the jazz age or a yoga class while you rinse the day away, make sure you do it in style with waterproof speakers rather than that red party cup you should have thrown away after beer pong was over Saturday night.
