Cooling Summer Baths

Trying to get away from the heat? Get in the bath!

Hear us out: baths can be a fun and refreshing part of your summer. And we’ve got a few tips and tricks to turn your bathtub into a cool, soothing oasis that’ll turn hot summer nights into cool ones.

It might seem unusual but jumping into a cool bath isn’t anything new. In fact, it’s known as a quick and easy way to reduce stress, help wake you up and even keep your skin and hair looking their best.

The coolest bath bombs

Adding a bath bomb to your cool bath kicks the experience up a notch. Our fizzers are packed with sodium bicarbonate (the stuff that makes ‘em fizz) as well as refreshing and soothing oils that’ll ensure your bath bomb fizzes easily in colder water. We’d suggest avoiding bath bombs, like Butterball which are packed with butters that need warmer water to melt completely.

If you want to keep your cool both in and out of the bath, ingredients like the peppermint oil in Intergalactic are ideal. Peppermint’s tingling effects will help keep skin feeling cool while you soak up all this fun bath bomb’s goodness, and it’ll also stay with you after you’ve emerged from your cooling oasis.

Citrusy ingredients like lime, lemongrass or lemon can also give your bath and skin a refreshing boost. Big Blue is packed with lemon and lavender oils, as well as fine sea salt for a relaxing oceanic experience, while Avobath’s energizing lemongrass and mood-boosting bergamot oil will invigorate your body and mind.

After-sun solutions

When you’ve spent too much time in the sun, soothing ingredients are in order. The lavender oil found in Deep Sleep and Twilight will not only offer comforting relief, but lavender is also known for its relaxation qualities, so you can lie back, cool down and leave the tub feeling ready for a good night’s sleep.

Bubble bars can also ease sunburned skin. Milky Bath Reusable Bubble Bottle, packed with soothing oat flour and grounding patchouli oil, is a good choice if you're feeling sensitive. Or try Big Bottle Of Calm—another reusable bubbler made with calming chamomile blue oil and dreamy lavender for instant relaxation. Plus you can use both of them again and again whenever you’re feeling a little sore.

No tub? No problem

Hop in the shower with our shower jellies! Pop your favorite one (we particularly recommend Twilight) in the fridge or freezer and its icy cold touch will help invigorate skin on hot summer days and nights. There’s also Outback Mate Soap which can help boost that frosty feeling thanks to a heaping dose of tingly peppermint oil.
