Bathing beauty

REMEMBER HOW WONDERFUL IT WAS to bring a hectic day to a close with the sound of water rushing from an old spigot, filling the tub. We looked forward to the refreshing scent of a big bar of soap, and occasionally dropped in a handful of bath salts to ease muscle tension. Settling back into warm, healing waters, we soaked away the cares of body, mind, and spirit.

NO LONGER LIMITED to a bar of soap and Mr. Bubble, bathing has become a passport to pampering and wellness. Now, take a lesson from the finest spas to create our own luxurious sanctuaries at home with Spa Concept's Herbal Tub Teas, aromatic oils like Decleor's Aromessence Bath and Non-Foaming Seaweed Bath, and Bath Bloomers Flowering Pastilles.

Retreat into a whirlpool of foamy water splashed with drops of fragrance, as shadows from flickering candles dance on the walls. Add serenading sounds from a soothing CD for a relaxing ritual. Practice the art of bathing.
