Warm baths and showers are godsend when you want to get rid of your stress. And to keep your body clean, of course. With another work week in our midst, you know you’ll need that extra few minutes in the tub before you sleep.
Regardless if you want to play with bubbles like Margot Robbie in The Big Short or just stand under the shower, the relaxing part comes with the products you’ll use. Start tonight, get comfy in bed after, and wake up feeling refreshed the next day.
