While bathing is a routine activity, it doesn’t have to be mundane. By adding a few thoughtful touches, you can transform your bath into a special, rejuvenating experience. Imagine stepping into a bath that feels like a mini-retreat, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated.
World Bathing Day offers the perfect opportunity to pause, relax, and enjoy a moment of pure bliss. Elevate your regular bathing routine with these simple yet effective tips to transform your bath into a holistic experience that soothes the skin, body and mind.

1. Simplify Your Atmosphere
   Creating a relaxing atmosphere doesn’t need to be complicated. Just dim the lights or light a few candles to create a softer ambience. Play your favorite soothing music or nature sounds to set the mood. These small adjustments can make a big difference in how relaxed you feel.
2. Exfoliate for Smooth Skin
   Before stepping into the bath, take a few minutes to exfoliate your skin. Use a gentle scrub or a dry brush to remove dead skin cells. Exfoliating helps to reveal smoother skin and allows moisturizing products to penetrate deeply, maximizing their benefits.
3. Choose the Right Water Temperature
   The temperature of your bathwater plays a crucial role in your overall experience. A lukewarm bath is ideal for relaxation as it helps soothe muscles and calm the mind. If you’re seeking an invigorating experience, a cooler bath can refresh and energizes you, especially on a hot day.
4. Use a Body Wash with a High Foaming Formula
   A body wash is an essential part of your bathing routine, providing a refreshing and cleansing experience for your skin. Choosing the right body wash can elevate your bathing experience to new heights. A high-foaming body wash creates a rich lather that feels indulgent and helps cleanse your skin thoroughly. The ITC Vivel Lavender and Almond Body Wash is an excellent choice. It combines the soothing scent of lavender with the moisturizing benefits of almond oil, leaving your skin feeling soft and nourished. The gentle fragrance helps you relax while the rich lather cleanses and hydrates your skin.
5. Changing the tap or shower filter
   Changing your tap or shower filter can make a significant difference in the quality of your bath. Filters help remove impurities from the water, making it gentler on your skin and hair. This small change can enhance your bathing experience by ensuring that the water you use is as clean and pure as possible.
   ITC Vivel’s brand ambassador, Sonam Kapoor, says, “To begin everyday fresh and fragrant is something I always stand by. We may feel that bathing is routine, but a good bath really helps start and end the day right. A relaxing bath routine is the perfect way to end a tiring day. I love soaking in an indulgent and fragrant bath and one of my favourite fragrances is Lavender. My go to is the ITC Vivel Lavender and Almond Oil Body Wash, it has heavenly scents and helps nourish and moisturise my skin, keeping it soft and supple.”

Maintaining a balanced diet, staying well-hydrated, and getting ample rest are essential for her. “I prioritize a diet rich in water and fruits, consciously steering clear of ingredients that can trigger any allergic reactions. Additionally, I refrain from consuming oily foods” Rashmika shares. “I also try to focus on either of these -strength training, yoga, swimming, and walks, at least three days a week”.
