Whether your bathroom is a suite, spa or the latest in the contemporary trend, what really makes it complete is a bath tub. There can be no fitter end to a lazy or tiring day than a soak in a warm bath with a few cupcake bath bombs thrown in for good measure. And won’t this special and soothing time be made much more special if your better (or worse) half is with you as well? A bath tub doesn’t only refresh your system by de-stressing and relaxing but it can also liven up your relationship in three simple but truly effective ways.

Why you should try it

• If you’ve just remodeled your bathroom, you might as well make some good use of it (applies even if you haven’t as you should try a bit of romance in every room)
• Warm cozy places and nice relaxing water means you get pampering as well as some fun time
• A good reason to buy that cool double-ended bath or use the one that’s lying dormant in your bathroom.

The bubble bath effect

Laughter and fun is one of the best medicines not only to ease away stress but also to help strengthen up the bonds of a relationship. Feeling old and jaded or that your relationship has matured into a zero romance or companionship zone can dull cupid’s arrows or deflect them. Splash in a bubble bath and douse each other with water and have a background of some peppy music or the song you both share. Throw in some essential oils for intoxicating fragrances and relax with wine and chocolate strawberries.

Celebratory sea salts

Have an hour’s getaway with spa indulgence in your own tub. Dip in some sea salts, cupcake bath bombs, essential oils, rose and lavender petals and enjoy some quiet talking time, sharing the day’s smiles and down points. As you lie back, you can even watch a favorite film if you have cable connection installed in your bathroom or wheel in your set if you have extensions. One reason why most relations tend to sour over a period of time is that communication gaps begin to grow. So, one hour where you can spend time alone together and relax in warm water too is pure bliss. You can even keep this as a prelude to some special occasion home candle light dinners. It’s a way to unwind before you settle your stomach with some delicious food.

Tea-light surprise

You might be having a pack of tea-light candles stacked away or been gifted some. What’s better to bring about a romantic atmosphere than some dim and fragrant lighting? An unexpected surprise like this should liven up your partner’s day as coming home to a golden glowing bathroom. As you have a relaxing time soaking in the goodness of the bath, you can even indulge in some delicious dark chocolate.
