Slow beauty is really a way of living, though it can start by the way we care for ourselves. Before we need to finish that super important project, cook dinner for the whole family, or staying at the couch scrolling through the gram — we should take some bath time (30 minutes if possible) for ourselves. Having a bathtub and time are key ingredients, then adding some amazing non-toxic miracle and relaxing bath products and pressing the pause button can help too.

For me, bath time or relaxing bath it’s about taking the time to be, to feel, and to connect, to go within as we emerge restored, relaxed, detoxified, and even moisturised, because a relaxing bath can be the perfect getaway you’ll need without even knowing.

2. Nourish your body
In the world of natural and relax essences, lavender is definitely one of the winners thanks to its aromatherapeutic, soothing fragrance, that calms and balances the nervous system and revives spirits so adding a few drops of this lavender relaxing bath milk to your bathtub is a great idea, especially at times of stress or agitation.

3. Light up the room
Set up the mood and unwind even further, we dim the lights and light up this beautiful Paradiso Del Sole Lumira Candle. The flickering flame and the subtle but seriously entrancing scent wafts through the air even before the candle’s lit, as it burns, the supremely smooth and relaxing scent is enough to take us back to a summer in Positano.

4. Repair the skin as you soak
We like to take our face to the same relax-moisturize-renew action the body’s getting. Mix your favourite face mask, (we love the Skinstitut Hydrating Mask) with a few drops of Skinstitut’s multi-active oil and let it sit for 20 -30 minutes. Its rich hydrating and nourishing properties are loaded with botanical extracts and nurturing plant oils that feel just like a dream for the skin.

5. A cup of tea for the ultimate treat
While talking about a relaxing bath a good cup of tea is key and this brightening blend goes above and beyond our expectations to soothe the mind, spirit, and even boost skin radiance. All while protecting the quality of the leaves inside. What’s more, the LAMAV tea jar is simultaneously chic and functional (hi new flower vase) completely organic and pesticide-free perfect for a me-moment well deserved. The relaxing herbal blend is infused with Liquorice Root, Lemon Grass, and Orange Peel; powerful detoxifiers and rich in vitamin C; and, of course, it tastes deliciously.

6. After a good sweat, finish with more moisture
Once out of the relax bath moment, add some hydrating oils into your skin. We recommend trying the Body Treatment Oil Ylang Ylang, Tamanu, Omega 7 from Grown Alchemist because it does smell divine but also the ingredients are super hydrating which helps for soft and smooth skin.
CF Tip, apply it working upwards from the feet in a circular motion, towards the heart for the ultimate treatment.
