Alexandra's Guide To The Best Bath Ever

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday June 24, 2013

About two months ago, I read a post by a blogger and loved it! She wrote about how much she enjoyed taking baths. I thought to myself, 'YES', this is what I have been searching for! I needed some relaxing me time to help me unwind after a stressful day and this fit the bill.

Since I've started taking long, luxurious baths, I've become somewhat of a connoisseur. When it comes to salts, soaps and everything in between, I've got it down to an art.

1. Epsom Salts (C$12.29): I am obsessed with Epsom salts. Not only is it a great soak for sore muscles, but it makes my skin feel so soft afterwards.

2. Tata Harper Aromatic Bedtime Treatment (C$62.00)

3. Aveeno Soothing Bath Treatment (US$6.99): I love an oatmeal soak. It makes dry, itchy skin a thing of the past.

4, Sea Salt (C$7.99): I actually like to do a 50/50 split of Epsom and sea salt. I find sea salt helps with blemishes or shaving bumps and cuts.

5. Lush Pink Bath Bomb (C$4.95)

6. Lush Space Girl Bath Bomb (C$5.25)

7. Vitabath Spa Day Cucumber & White Tea Body Mist (C$9.99): Post bath, I prefer a light scent that isn't too overpowering on musks.

8. Vitabath In Bloom Nouveau Rose with Evening Primrose Oil Body Wash (C$7.99)

9. Vitabath Fruit Fanatic Grapefruit Vanilla with Grapefruit Extract Body Wash (C$7.99)

10. Aura Cacia Aromatherapy Lavender Harvest Mineral Bath (C$3.69): Baths are amazing before bed. Try anything lavender scented in your bath and you'll feel like you're drifting off to wonderland.

11. Origins Clear Improvements Mask (C$27.00): While spending time soaking, I like to make use of that time and give myself a mini facial with a good mask. This one's great and so is: 13. GlamGlow Super-Mud Clearing Treatment (C$69.00).

12. Live Clean Spa Therapy Soothing Dead Sea Salts (C$8.97)

14. Spa Sister Luxury Inflatable Terry Bath Pillow Bath Pillow (US$11.00)

15. Umbra Aquala Bamboo and Chrome Bathtub Caddy (C$44.15)

16. Coastal Scents Nuna Black Soap (C$3.95)

I find new and interesting ways to make use of my own homemade oils. Boiling eucalyptus leaves yourself saves lots of money! However, it does make the fragrance more potent.

I hate having to reach out of the tub and onto the floor to get my tea or water, and of course my book always ends up getting wet. I also always have a candle or two going, just really feels more relaxing with one burning :)

I would love to use bath bombs, etc - but they usually cause me more grief afterwards, not fun. I also totally agree with Takoda, once I had my children, I just can't seem to find the bath time that I had before..
