With cool winter nights (in the southern hemisphere anyway) well and truly here, us bath lovers rejoice in that cosy feeling of running a warm bath. And for some of us lucky enough to have a bath big enough to share two people it can feel extra cosy! Whether you’re a couple or by yourself – you can create the ultimate romantic bath at home! 

Sometimes the most romantic nights don’t happen at a restaurant – they happen at home, in a warm bath, with flickering candlelight and an indulgent luxury bath set. Whether you’re planning a date night or a self-love session, creating a romantic bath is one of the simplest and most soul-nourishing rituals you can enjoy.

Here’s how to do it right, using the best romantic bath kit essentials from BathCalm.

Step One: Set the Mood with Lighting and Music

Soft, warm light is essential to setting the right mood. Switch off overhead lights and let the glow of luxury candles do all the work. Choose a few BathCalm favourites, like Wild Nights or Midnight Magic, and place them safely on the window or bath ledge.

Next, set up a playlist. Choose instrumental or soft vocal tracks – think lo-fi jazz, acoustic love songs or calming piano melodies. If the mood takes you, you can always try one of our Bath Meditation Soaks with your Bluetooth speakers work wonders here, but even your phone will do in a pinch.

Step Two: Prepare Your Bath Kit

A great romantic bath needs more than just water and a few bubbles. A complete bath kit should include:

• Epsom salts or a soothing soak – like our BathCalm Meditation Soaks. Try our  Love or Tranquility blend featuring Sandalwood, Honeysuckle and Petitgrain pure essential oils for gorgeous relaxation! 
• Essential oils or bubble bath (optional) – just check that they are skin-safe with you and non-drying for your skin.
• Fluffy towels or robes, laid out in advance.
• A drink – herbal tea, bubbly or even a cheeky glass of wine.

Step Three: Add a Romantic Bath Recipe

Here’s a simple yet indulgent romantic bath recipe using our BathCalm products:

Romantic Tranquility Bath Meditation Soak

• 2 tablespoons of BathCalm’s Tranquility Bath Meditation Soak
• A few drops of Jojoba oi or a spoonful of coconut milk powder for soft, silky skin
• Add rose petals or sprinkle a few dried flower petals for that visual wow

Let everything infuse while the water runs. Swirl the water to dissolve the salts fully and activate the fragrance. Step in slowly and take a moment to breathe – because it’s not just a bath, it’s a ritual!

Step Four: Add Finishing Touches

• Place a few chocolates or strawberries on a dish nearby – just because!
• Bring a book or listen to the mediation accessed via the QR code on the packaging to simply relax and reconnect.
• If you’re sharing the bath, keep it playful or keep it quiet – there are no rules here, just intention and presence.

Step Five: Post-Bath Bliss

After the bath, wrap yourself in your warm towel or robe and dry off. Then, moisturise with a nourishing body oil or balm. Light another BathCalm candle where you’re hanging out and let the romantic energy flow into the rest of your evening.

Please Remember!

Extinguish your candles and empty your bath. There’s nothing more un-romantic than scrubbing your dirty bathtub the next day! Yuck!

At BathCalm, we believe that candles should do more than flicker prettily in the corner of a room – they should transform it. Our BathCalm luxury candles are created with the same intention and care as all of our self-care offerings: to soothe, uplift, and wrap you in a glow that feels like home.

We don’t rush a candle to market. In fact, we spend a lot of time testing every single candle before it even gets close to our online shop. Why? Because when we say “luxury,” we mean it. That means a clean, consistent long burn, a beautiful scent throw, and an aesthetic that complements any space.

The Wax Matters

Our candles are hand-poured using vegan-friendly Ecococowax, a sustainable blend of coconut and soy wax. This blend not only burns cleaner and longer, but it’s also ethically sourced. That way, you can feel as good about the burn as you do about the fragrance. We’ve paired this premium wax with wooden wicks that offer a beautiful and unique aesthetic.

Gift-Worthy in Every Way

Presentation matters, especially when you’re giving a gift that says, “You deserve a little indulgence.” Each BathCalm candle is housed in our signature white and gold luxury branded box – sturdy, elegant, and perfect for gifting. With Mother’s Day just around the corner, there’s no better time to give a little glow to someone you love (or let them know what you’d love to receive hint, hint)!

Your Brand, Your Candle

Looking to gift your clients something a little more memorable than a branded pen or keychain? We offer white-label candle options for businesses who want to share the gift of warmth and beauty with their customers. You can select every element of your candle if you wish – everything from the wicks to the fragrance to the finish. This way your candle reflects your brand values and personality to perfection. Whether you’re after calming coastal notes, grounding earthy blends, or playful pops of citrus, we’ll help you create a candle that speaks your language.
