Top 10 Romantic Bath Essentials

Need an idea for the perfect romantic night? Why not try a bath for two? Celebrate a special occasion, a welcome-home or plan this encounter "just because" they deserve it. To make your special evening perfect, use this top 10 list as your guide to romantic bathing bliss.

1. Clean Environment
   Nothing ruins the mood for romance like a dirty room. Make sure your romantic encounter lives up to its full potential by including a thorough cleaning.
2. Rose Petals
   One of the most common symbols for romance, the rose is not only a beautiful addition to your bath water and/or bath area it is delightfully fragrant as well.
3. Bubble Bath
   Bubble bath comes in so many varieties it can be hard to choose the right one. If you know your partner has a special favorite, use that one. If not, try something a little creative like bubble bath in a champagne bottle.
4. Mood Music
   Initiate a romantic environment with a little calm and relaxing mood music. Many stores offer nature or mood themed music. Pick out a CD that will help you create the exact mood you desire.
5. Candlelight
   Restore that healthy glow with a liberal sprinkling of candlelight. Tea lights are easy to use, make little mess and are easy to throw away once cooled. Don't place candles where you may splash water on them.
6. Bath Loofah or Accessories
   Why not give each other the ultimate bath and spa experience with a little skin pampering? Pick up a basket of spa items at your local bath and body or drug store.
7. Champagne
   Celebrate your time together with a romantic toast. Use this couple time to renew promises or vows with each other. Or, just revel in actually having couple time.
8. Warm, Fluffy Towels
   Take cover with towels just out of the dryer. Take turns drying each other off for a more intimate experience.
9. Mood Inviting Bath Soak
   Bath soaks are usually a blend of ingredients you add to your bath water to create a desired effect, such as a sore muscle soak, stress-easing soak or relaxation soak. Most bath and body and drug stores carry bath soak products.
10. Privacy
    A romantic moment is easily ruined with unwanted disruptions. Arrange your water play encounter at a time when you can be together alone. A great way to do this and create the perfect memorable night is staying at hotel with a spa or Jacuzzi tub in your room.
