Whether it’s Valentine’s Day or just another night, taking a bath with your honey can help you grow closer. That is, if you do it right. So think through the details before you jump in the tub together. This guide can help you plan for optimal romance. And if you've got a man in your life who is reluctant to hop in the tub with you, try this: Next time you're in bed together, read him this post: Secrets of Men Who Take Baths. I promise he'll warm up to the idea...fast! Best Romantic Bath Ideas And now, without further ado, here are romantic bath ideas that can turn on the sweetness or the sizzle, depending on what shade of romance is your most fervent desire: 1. Soak in a Tub for Two You need to be pretty comfortable with one another to share a tub made for one—but that can be some of the fun. Just keep in mind water displacement and fill it up less than you usually would when bathing alone. Pictured above is the Mirage Hammock Bath from the Hammock Bath Company. These luxury hammock bathtubs are not only perfect for a romantic soak, but they are great for bathing children and are ecofriendly too. (Use coupon code BATHTUBBER15 for 15% off, excludes shipping.) It also depends on whether as a couple, the two of you run on the skinny side or, if you’ve both got some love handles to hang onto. For ultimate comfort, and if you plan to make romantic baths a mainstay of your relationship, consider getting a tub that easily fits two. 2. Get Scent-ual! Since ancient times, the essence of plants, roots and flowers have been pressed. The essential oils were then used as aphrodisiacs to inspire allure and desire. There are a wide range of essential oils that aid sensuality. Lavender oil decreases anxiety and stress, and as you probably know, being relaxed is a precursor to feeling the romance. While the essential oil of nutmeg is thought to increase sexuality in men, ginseng oil can help with erectile dysfunction. And sandalwood can improve overall mood for women. (Source) I love the diffuser pictured above. I just add about a cup of water and 10 drops of essential oil and it will run for hours. I can choose from 7 LED light colors while it mists. Ahh!i (Makes a great gift paired with essential oils like these from Laguna Moon.) 3. Kick It Up a Notch with Chromotherapy Chromotherapy is the use of color to affect mood. The advertising business uses it all the time, creating green-hued ads to make us feel peaceful and teal-colored ads to signify sophistication. But what about for romance? Just as there are many shades of relationships, there are many colors that can work to inspire sensuality; it depends exactly what you want from your significant other. Use red for general attraction and to signal confidence. Pink indicates warmth and sweetness. Turn on the purple light to turn on sexual passion. Sure, if you use colored lights your lover will just notice the cool ambiance. But you don’t have to reveal the method to your madness! Why not try Submersible LED Lights with remote control. Stick them on the sides of your bathtub. Turn the settings to your desired color combo and let the magic unfold! 4. Try LED Flameless Candles One of the most obvious romantic bath ideas is to use candles. And while candles can incorporate both the scents of essential oils and chromotherapy, if you anticipate a lot of action in the bathroom, consider flame-free candles to keep things safe. Below you'll see the gorgeous LED Flameless Candles with Embedded Starlight String. They will definitely set the mood, but they won’t kill the romance by making you worry about a house fire just when things are getting good! These flameless candles come 5 in a set, or 3 in a set, and you can turn them on or off with the remote control. You can also set the timer so they’ll automatically turn off whenever you choose. 5. Turn On the Mood Music Since ancient times, humans have recognized the ability of music to alter our moods. So which tunes are best for bringing on the romance? Really, that depends on you and your mate. Just be sure to choose a soundtrack that works for both of you equally well, and matches the mood you want to create. It’s not always true that romantic music should be mellow on the beat. Sometimes lively can be sexy and fun. But nothing can kill a mood like a tinny sound quality, so try not to stream from your phone. If you’re in the market for waterproof bathroom speakers, try the Wonderboom 2 to get a huge bang for your buck! This Bluetooth-enabled waterproof speaker is getting rave reviews in the audio world. 6. Rub Your Honey With Sugar Scrub If you’ve never heard of a sugar scrub, it’s a concoction with essential oils, carrier oils and, yes, sugar! Rubbing a sugar scrub on your own body feels decadent, as the sugar exfoliates any rough, dry patches of skin. So why not share the sweet sensation, by massaging your honey with a sugar scrub? Might I suggest you make a sugar scrub together as a type of bath foreplay? This 100% natural lavender sugar scrub will get all your senses tingling. 7. Sip Champagne in a Champagne Bath It feels extra celebratory to sip champagne in the tub, but that’s just the beginning of how to make a bath for two extra romantic. Why not follow in the footsteps of Marilyn Monroe, arguably the sexiest actress of all time?! Rumor has it that she bathed in 350 bottles of champagne. And why not? Well, it would cost a bloody fortune for one thing. Plus all that uncorking would be some workout. Instead, follow Marilyn’s lead in spirit, by fixing a more modern-day (and less sticky) version of the champagne bath. Mix these simple ingredients together in a bowl and then add the solution to warm bathwater: 1 cup of Champagne 1 cup of Epsom Salts ½ cup melted coconut oil (microwave for 20 seconds) 6 drops of essential rose oil, if available Next, and this is optional, sprinkle your bath water with dried or fresh rose petals. Finally, while bathing in champagne, be sure to sip glasses of bubbly! Balance your bubbly on a pretty bath caddy, like the one pictured just above from Royal Craft Wood. In addition to your champagne, the caddy can also hold your sugar scrub, a remote for an essential oil diffuser, a candle, and any other bathtub goodies you may want to bring along. 8. Bring On the Bubbles! https://youtu.be/dokyUBTYpLk Nothing can crank up the sizzle like turning your regular bathtub into a jacuzzi. And it's much easier than you'd think with a bubble bathtub mat from SereneLife. You won't believe what a great massage you can get from this, too. I love my jacuzzi bath mat so much. Trust me, it makes bathtime much more festive and fun. 9. Dry Off With a Soft, Fluffy Towel Pamper yourself with 100% cotton, nontoxic bath towels from Delilah Home. Being able to wrap your sweetheart in a soft, fluffy towel can be a sensual experience in and of itself. The last thing you want when you get out of the tub is to hug up your lover in a thin, scratchy towel. Talk about a vibe killer. So think ahead and set out your most plush towels from Delilah Home. These towels are 100% organic cotton, made without any bleaches and dyes at a family factory in Portugal. At 700 grams, they're 50% thicker than regular towels. 10. Take a Long-Distance Couples Bath These days, just because you're not in the same place as your lover, doesn't mean you can't take a romantic bath together! You’ve heard of phone sex, right? Well, there’s a more romantic version of that. It’s called the LDCB (Long Distance Couples Bath). And technology makes it possible. What you need is a pair of Friendship Lamps. Each of you has one. Then when apart, you set your friendship lamp on your bathroom vanity. Whenever you pine for your lover, touch the friendship lamp. Their lamp will light up in a color that represents you and says, "We're apart but you're still in my heart!" Likewise, your partner's lamp will light up when you touch the lamp first. And now for the best part of this romantic bath idea: each of you touches the lamp and then soaks in a relaxing, hot bath, illuminated by the beautiful colors of love. Enjoy your LDCB! Best Romantic Bath Ideas for This Year Taking a bath is such a sensuous experience it easily lends itself to romance. You don’t need to implement every idea on the list. Just pick a few of your favorite romantic bath ideas to turn a bath for two into a form of foreplay.
