How to Really
Enjoy a Bubble Bath
by John Wellington |
|
My daughter loves to take a bubble
bath. Most kids do, and it is not something we outgrow when we
get older. I have even caught my husband taking a bubble bath,
though he claims it was an accident. I'm not sure how you can
accidentally pour bubbles into your bath, but I decided to let
it go and not laugh too hard. There is nothing wrong with a man
taking a bubble bath; it was just funny how hard he was trying
to hide it. Bubbles are good for the soul, and a good bubble
bath is a great way to relax at the end of a hard day.
When I take a bubble bath I make
it an event to remember, because I don't get the time very often.
I often choose lavender scented bubbles, fill the tub up as much
as I can, light a few candles, and read a book while I soak.
I often put on a CD from my favorite singer, because getting
a chance to listen to that is something that doesn't happen very
often either. After about an hour I am totally relaxed, wrinkled,
and content. |

After a good bubble bath, you should
make sure you pamper your body to complete the effect. Use your
favorite lotion and put it on every inch of your body to keep
your skin soft, and then slip into your warmest bathrobe. This
will help the soothing effects of a bubble bath stay with you
just a little bit longer. This is also a great time to exfoliate
the bottoms of your feet. You can get rid of some of the dead
skin and then apply lotion made just for feet. After a few treatments
like this, your feet might be as smooth as the rest of your body.
There are safety issues you have
to consider when it comes to taking a bubble bath however. Don't
get so relaxed that you fall asleep. This is not really a good
idea in a tub full of water. Also remember that it is not a good
idea to take a bubble bath very often. For some reason bubble
baths disturb the delicate balance of bacteria in your vagina,
and this can lead to yeast infections. Space them out so you are
only taking one a week or less. Remember to keep this in mind
for your daughter as well. Children can have the same problems
adults have, and too many bubble baths can mess her up as well. |
