If you are set on getting that glow then your regular soap ain`t enough to do the job. We can all benefit from a soothing and refreshing bath, but this can be achieved if you have the right accessories. Bathing or showering doesn’t need to be complicated. For that radiant glow, keep reading if you want to be inspired by our picks:

A relaxing and a refreshing bath is what we look forward to after a long day. Whether you are a shower or bath person the towels you use are very important. The basic rule of thumb is to use a separate towel for your face and body. Buy 2-3 towels and make sure they are always washed and are in rotation. One towel hanging in the bathroom, one in the linen closet, the other in the laundry. Ensure that the set includes a bath, face and drying towel.

We know some can`t bear to part ways with their beloved pumice stone, which has proven to be the MVP in most households. If you want a bathing accessory that can bring a marked difference to your bathing routine then grab a loofah. We love the fact that you richly lather soap and also helps to gently exfoliate dead skin. To top it off, loofahs also increase blood circulation. Moisturise after stepping out of the bath otherwise skin will dry out. To enjoy the benefits of using this washing aid, loofahs should ideally be stored correctly. Shower area is a breeding ground for bacteria and germs, to avid contaminating your loofah disinfect it thoroughly with bleach and place it on a hook to allow it to totally dry. Replace it after 60 days and sterilize it regularly to avoid skin infections.

Let`s be honest, there is no need for you to sprint from your bathroom to your room in your birth suit. You are now too grown and need to step out from the bathroom with your dignity intact. A bathrobe is a necessity. They come in different styles and material e.g. terry towel, fleece, silk and we guess you know are designed to be worn after you are done bathing.

Some of us have had near ‘death’ misses due to bathroom mishaps. Dislocated hip or broken bones is not what we envision after decompressing in warm scented water. To avoid stepping on shockingly stone cold tiles or slipping on wet floors, a bath mat can make all the difference. For repeated use splurge on premium cotton bath mats. Don`t invest on just a bath mat, but a durable, fluffy one that has great absorbent qualities - helps to dry off your feet as you stand on it. Ensure that you replace it when you start to see stains, the backing mat starts peeling off or when you see loose threads. Clean them every week so that they keep looking new throughout their lifespan.

You don`t need to break the bank to get that bath time glow-up.
