Nothing is better than coming home from a long day of work (or WFH), letting your hair down, and hopping in a nice, warm bubble bath. Not only is it one of the best ways to incorporate self-care into your busy week, but bubble baths have also been proven to soothe fatigued muscles, reduce stress, and improve blood circulation and heart health. You can opt for keeping it simple with your favorite bath fizz product, bath bomb or bath oil, or you can go all out and maximize your experience with CBD bath products, luxury candles, a glass of wine, or a good book. 

In order to have the best experience, it’s important to remember a few rules of caution:

  • Always prepare your bubble bath by adding your bubble fix to running water.
  • Make sure the water is not scolding hot.
  • Be sure to take a shower or cleanse your body before sitting in a bubble bath. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Anthony Rossi explains, “Soaking in a tub can accumulate skin bacteria if present, and we don’t recommend sitting in stagnant (not clean) water if you have an open wound.”
  • Because bubble bath products can throw off the pH of the vagina, causing an imbalance of bacteria or yeast, if you’re prone to UTIs or yeast infections be sure to only use products that are gentle, fragrance-free and dermatologist tested. 
  • Try adding fresh eucalyptus, as they release an invigorating scent and natural oils with the steam. 
  • Remember to soak for at least twenty minutes, and have your robe ready for when it’s time to get out.

Now, here are our favorite bubble bath products to pamper yourself with this winter.
