Bathrooms are so much more than a place to brush your teeth. They’re seen as a sanctuary and a place where you can relax, unwind, and feel pampered. So, with February being the month of love, what better time is there to add some romantic touches to your bathroom? We have rounded up some easy ways, and a few that take a bit more effort, to bring in the spirit of Valentine’s.
Bath, but make it boujee:
Taking a bath is a sensual experience that lends itself easily to romance with a few simple additions. A bath scattered with rose petals looks good, smells amazing and exudes romance. It’s a classic Valentine’s staple for a good reason. If that’s not your thing, there’s bath milk, bath oils, bath bombs or even a good old fashioned bubble bath. The options are endless. To give your bathroom a permanent air of romance, get a whole new tub! We recommend a slipper bath from Victoria and Albert. The extended backrest provides full back support and is perfect for lying back and sipping a glass of champagne or two.
Lighting sets the mood:
It’s impossible to create a romantic atmosphere under harsh lighting. Candles are a quick and easy way to solve this. Light as many candles as you can safely fit in your bathroom, turn off the lights and bathe in the flattering and flickering glow. If they’re scented, even better! If you’re looking to splurge, fit a dimmer switch to your bathroom lighting so you can lower the lights when trying to create a certain vibe.
Add some luxury:
Amp up the romance by adding luxurious elements to your bathroom. Think chocolates and your favourite drink within arm’s reach, and plush new towels to dry off after a soak in the tub. Changing up your bathroom fixtures and adding warm soft colours like Brushed Cool Sunrise showerheads, basin, bath, and shower mixers will also add a touch of romantic extravagance to the room. Of course, a heated towel rail is a must-have addition to any bathroom, no matter what your motives, but what could be better than stepping out of your sensually scented bath and being wrapped in a fresh, warm towel?
Get steamy:
Fear not if you don’t have a bath; the shower is great for two, too! Just like a bath, you can add romance with scented items like shower melts. Create a fantastic shower experience with a showerhead that mimics rainfall or a gentle waterfall, so you can imagine you and bae have been whisked off to an exotic location.
If you’re single this Valentine’s Day, treat yourself! All the things we have mentioned above make for the perfect self-care day too.
