Treat Yo' Self: Bathroom Luxuries

Does your bathroom drip with opulence? With some minor adjustments, upgrade your bare basics to spa level luxury.

Mood lighting
If you consider yourself a handyman, try installing a dimming switch. Dimmers regulate the mood of a room. Use low lights for a relaxing atmosphere. For a less intensive project, strategically placed candlelight will set the scene.

Remove technology
Unplug while you unwind, and break the social media loop. Read the book you were gifted last Christmas, or indulge in a glass of rosé. With this bamboo caddy, you can do both at the same time. Add a foam bath pillow for less work and more relaxation.

Tune out
Invest in a waterproof Bluetooth speaker. Give yourself no excuse to check your phone by syncing your playlist to speakers ahead of time.

Floral fragrances
Studies show lavender alleviates stress and depression. Other calming aromas include pine and eucalyptus. Eucalyptus can double as a decongestant and is great for flu season. Fill an empty vase with some bundles, or drop a scented bath bomb in warm water.

Temperate climate
Set up a free-standing towel heater for continued full body warmth once you step out of the tub. For those of us who cannot afford radiant underfloor heating, a warming mat will keep your toes toasty.
