Cold winter nights are the perfect time to take a warm, soothing bath. The height of luxury in the home, it can help you to relax and unwind after a long, hard day.

1. Take a rinse in the shower
An optional step, but a lot of people prefer to take a short rinse in the shower before they bathe (especially if they’re really dirty!), as to not mar the luxurious bathing experience.

2. Wipe down the bathtub
Before you run your relaxing bath, take note of the state of the tub to see if there is any soap residue or stray hairs left along the sides. If so, simply wipe these off with a clean cloth and spray for the perfect base for your bath.
3. Plug the drain and fill the tub
Once the tub has been cleaned and plugged, gradually fill it with nice, warm water. Be careful not to set the temperature too high, as hot water can scold or dry out the skin. Check the temperature with the back of your hand before you get in to make sure that it is not too hot.

4. Create a soothing environment
Try lighting candles around the bathroom for a warm and relaxing atmosphere – scented candles can add an extra touch of luxury as the aroma fills the room. Add oil, soap, or bath salts to the water to create a spa-like environment for a truly luxurious experience.
5. Enjoy!
Sit back and relax as the cosy, warm water soothes your muscles and the luxurious scents fill your senses…
