15 Ways To Make Your Bath Sexier Than Ever Before

Turn up the heat when you wind down with these sexpert approved tricks.

By Abiola Abrams · April 22, 2016October 27, 2020
01
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! Get the Pure Candle Love & Sexy Candle Set to create a sexy environment.

02
Dip, baby, dip

First of all, let’s get this bath feeling, smelling and looking sexy. Besides your beautiful body, what are you adding to your bath water? Go adult sexy with Laura Mercier’s Crème Brûlée Honey Bath. Yum. You will be dipping yourself in the essence of vanilla, sugar, and caramel. After this bath, you’ll be delicious enough to eat! In addition, ingredients like almond and oatmeal will have your skin feeling kissably soft. What an incredible way to begin an evening—or to end it!

03
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. 

04
Remote Control Vibrator

Picture this. You’re in your birthday suit soaking in a hot bath. You have a luxury double sided “massager” with you. It is accented with 24 KT gold. Sounds divine, right? Now if that wasn’t sexy enough, imagine that the vibrator is remote controlled. That’s right, your bae has the remote control and anything goes. Buckle up. It’s going to be a wild ride. Get the waterproof LELO Tiani 24k – Remote Controlled Luxury Couples’ Massager.

05
Edible oils

I don’t know about you, but oiling up my divine brown skin makes me feel like the goddess I am. Oils in the bath are a definite “yay.” You can keep it simple with olive oil or take things to a toe curling level. Especially enchanting for a bath a deux aka shared bath, The Kama Sutra Company presents the Original Oil of Love, an edible, allergy-tested body oil.

06
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.”

07
Godiva Hot Cocoa

Godiva drinkable chocolate, anyone? I thought that would get your attention. This beverage may bring you some competition as the hottest chocolate in the room. Yes, Godiva makes Hot Cocoa. You’re welcome.

08
The Best Bubbles

Looking to have some actual bubbles in your bath? If you want to go bubbly, California Baby Bubble Bath comes with an old school bubbles wand. Remember those? This would be so much fun to play with.

09
Scalp and foot massager

Have you ever had a sexy foot massage or scalp massage? Well what’s a girl to do if she’s playing alone? Purchase the most scintillating finger substitute, that’s what! Get yourself a waterproof head and body massager. The cordless Oreadex OD860 with the 3D Kneading feature is sure to leave you purrrrrrring like a kitten. Get yours here.

10
Playlist for Playtime

What’s on your sexy time playlist? Music is extremely personal. Songs like Beyonce’s “Partition,” D’Angelo’s “How Does It Feel,” TLC’s “Red Light Special” and Ginuwine’s “Pony” will have you ready for whatever comes next. Play it safe. Listen to your sexy tunes on the waterproof ION Audio Water Rocker. 

11
Yoni Jade Eggs

Is your yoni as blissful as you are? While you have to check with your own doctor or healthcare provider to know what is right for you, Wikipedia files jade eggs under “vaginal weightlifting.” According to JadeEggs.com, “Practice with the Jade Eggs in a thorough exercise program will increase elasticity and blood flow to the vaginal muscles, awakening sexual sensitivity not only in your vagina but also in surrounding genital areas.”

12
Bath Tub Tray

Wouldn’t you like to have your bath toys and accessories placed elegantly before you like a star in a movie? Get a legit bath tray to do the heavy lifting. Check out Blissful Bath’s Teak Tub Tray Caddy. Love!

13
Your phone

Hello?

Your phone is a delightful tub tool, especially if it’s waterproof. Create your own erotica by telling a paramour exactly what you are not wearing.

Warning: Don’t send anybody anything someone can sell to an adult site!

You may choose to soak in Sensual Black Currant Vanilla Body Wash & Foam Bath during this escapade. Get yours at Bath & Body Works.

14
Steamy Bathtime Stories

A diva must have something steamy to read. Erotic tales are nothing new. Before everyone went all “50 Shades” there was our sister Zane. Today, erotica comes in all flavors for women of color, from BBW romance to lesbian. Here are a few books to make your bathtime especially wet…

Brown Sugar: A Collection of Erotic Black Fiction by Carol Tayor

Giving Him More To Love: A BBW Romance by Shaneeka Porter

Slippery When Wet by Cairo

Push The Button, a BDSM novel by Feminista Jones

Purple Panties: An Eroticanoir Anthology edited by Zane

Speaking in Whispers: African-American Lesbian Erotica by Kathleen E. Morris 

15
Chocolate Covered Raspberries

A girl’s gotta eat, right? Chocolate covered strawberries are so yesterday. Delight in chocolate covered raspberries. Order yours now and you’ll be ready for the next tub encounter.
