On a chilly evening, there is literally nothing better than soaking in a tub with your special someone in an extravagant array of bubbles, flickering candles and a vintage full body red. This valentine's day, create a romantic bath to whisk them off their feet and indulge in an evening of romance, fun and a party for two.

Single? These steps apply just the same and you don’t need to share the wine and can fully stretch out in that tub. Added bonus, you can skip step 3 -  less steps… we’ll take it! The scene, the music and the relaxing bath may just have you dreaming about your crush.

step 1- set the scene

Nothing ruins a romantic bath than the half squeezed bottles of Herbal Essence and rogue dried up razors. Remove all bath products from around the tub, and hide them. From there, give the tub a thorough rinse and remove any unnecessary towels, loofahs and hey- remove the shower curtain. Why not? Simplicity will be your key to a blissful soak.

step 2- draw the tub

Start the water and draw the tub. We recommend pouring it slighter warmer than what you would normally put in as you may have a bit of a delay preparing the rest of the romantic bath. Choose your Bathorium bath soak wisely. If you are looking for a bath bomb soak- we suggest Boreal Fog (charred smell of fresh burned lumber linger throughout the entire bath. Smokey vetiver, powerful eucalyptus and green clay round out the soak). If you are a Crush fanatic, we suggest Sea Kelp Serenity (lavender, bergamot, shea butter). Either way, you and your skin are in for a treat.

step 3- rose petals. all the rose petals.

We aren't going to lie to you- this makes a mess for clean up. We wouldn't recommend it though as step three if it wasn't crucial though. Buy a bouquet, go rogue and rip the petals off and sprinkle them on top of the water, on the floor, maybe a path leading from the bedroom?

step 4- candles, wine, chocolates

Easy at it sounds. A few flickering candles throughout the room and on the ledge help create the mood. Get their favourite wine- whether that be bubbles, crisp white, a vintage red- or a can of budweiser.. make it special for them. Valentines day wouldn't be the same without the cocoa. Have some lying on the edge of the tub you can feed to your special someone or treat yourself- you’ve earned this!
