Scent the mood

Sure, we are stylish and cute, but on a primal level, we are animals. Scent has the power like nothing else to put us in the mood. A mix of amber, vanilla, and rose creates a stimulating musky mix. Pure Candle promises that, “The woodsy and heady notes of amber combined with soft floral rose and comforting vanilla, will engage your romantic senses.” Nice!

Rose Petals

A sexy bath without rose petals is just a setup! Take it all the way there. You can order rose petals from your local florist or try Wrapables Scented Rose Petals. These incredible smelling petals cut down on clean up time as they dissolve in the water. You may want to sprinkle them around the tub to get the full effect if you’re having bathtime for two. FYI, Wrapables also makes scented rose soaps.

Edible oils

I don’t know about you, but oiling up my divine brown skin makes me feel like the goddess I am.

Water-friendly lubricant

If you’re having shared sexy bath time, you may want to enhance the experience with a personal lubricant. Silicone based lubricants are perfect for water playtime. Try Astroglide Diamond Silicone Gel or Astroglide X Silicone Liquid. According to their “Lube Ed” site, “Unlike water based lubes that would be quickly washed away in the shower or tub, silicone lubes stay put and keep friction at bay while you enjoy some slippery, wet fun.”
