Your DIY Relaxing Bubble Bath: Before, During & After

Essentials for a DIY relaxing bath

Drawing the “movie scene” bath with candles and bubbles takes a little more work than we’d like. Lighting that one candle you had in the kitchen and using your child's soap to create enough bubbles to cover yourself just doesn’t quite cut it. If you can take some extra time to prep, you will get to relax in your dream bath.

 

Before your Relaxing Bath

 

Clear a night

     

  • Clear a night on your calendar to make sure that there are no other obligations for you to worry about. If you have kids arrange for your husband or family member to get them out of the house for a couple of hours. You want to make sure you get the most out of your DIY bath night. 

 

Preparing your bath

These are just a few things you might want to consider grabbing before you slip into your nice warm bath.

 

  • Bathrobe – make sure your softest bathrobe is within arm's reach so that as soon as you step out of the tub there is warm embrace waiting for you. 

  • Soft towels – you might want to dry off a little after your luxurious soak.

  • Something to read – grab a book, magazine or the latest podcast you have been listening to. 

  • Snacks – You can never be too prepared! In case you get the munchies put some snacks there by your tub.

 

Relaxing bath ideas

 

The little things that make all the difference! 

 

  • Candle lit bath – Grab a couple of them so that you have enough light that you can turn off the bathroom light. Also make sure they don’t have a scent. A mixture of scented candles could create an aroma that is quite unpleasant. 

  • Something to drink – Add a little something to the night whether it’s a glass of wine, a bottle water, or a diet coke it’s a good idea to keep a drink nearby.

  • Relaxing bath music – Grab your phone or a speaker and put on some relaxing music to set the tone. 

  • Essential Oils – Oils are a great way to help with feelings of calmness and relaxation.
