5 tips for an wondrous bath-time

1. Think of the temperature

It's often tempting to fill the tub to the brim with scalding hot water when it's cold and the weather outside is rather grim. However, it goes without saying that you should only run water you can actually bear to sit in, especially if you intend on having a long soak in the tub.

2. A great book

If you're a bit tired of smudging the ink on book pages with wet fingers after some reading time in the tub, skip the physical book at try listening to a captivating audio-book instead. You can do this straight from your smartphone, or you can always stream via wireless and Bluetooth speakers. There are some speakers that are IP-certified, which means that they are well-suited to keep you company by the side of the tub without short-circuiting from moisture or being near water.

3. Oil and salt

Not a fan of fizzy bath bombs? You can still get a rejuvenating bath with some bath oils or salts. Bath oils can help work against dryness on the outer layers of skin, whilst bath salts help to keep the skin soft. Depending on your taste and preferences, many bath salts are also scented with essential oils, which can give a relaxing or revitalising effect; whichever works best for you!

4. Multitask in the tub

Whilst you're lying and soaking in the tub, why not pass the time by also testing out a new hair treatment, face-mask, or exfoliate your skin with a delightful body scrub? Don't have any scrubs on hand at home? You can always make your own with the help of some coffee grounds and coconut oil!

5. Light a candle

Dim the lights, and light a relaxing, scented candle. Take a few deep breaths, absorb the moment and simply enjoy bath-time.
