Rub-A-Dub-Dub, I Live In My Tub
(And honestly? I recommend you do too.)
Let me be clear: I don’t bathe to get clean.
I bathe to survive.
Emotionally. Spiritually. Mentally.
Also, my back hurts and I’m tired. Always.
Bathing is my sacred ritual.
A daily act of self-care so essential, it’s borderline non-negotiable. My family knows: If Mom’s in the tub, leave her alone unless someone is bleeding, unconscious, or there’s wine involved.
For me, bathing is the ultimate reset button.
It’s where I soothe my perimenopausal bones, process my chaotic thoughts, and pretend I live in a luxury spa and not a house with 14 heartbeats and a mysterious sticky spot on every surface.
But here’s the thing: a great bath requires great product.
And I’m not talking about a sad squirt of mystery bubbles from a questionable bottle.
Enter the Bath Queens: Barefoot Venus, Bathorium, Bath Poetry & The Tofino Hobbyist
💛 Barefoot Venus Mustard Bath – The Cult Classic
You know it. You love it. It’s our #1 best-seller and for good reason.
This soak smells divine. The most common comment we hear is “it smells SO good in this store, what is that?” It’s the mustard bath…seriously—but don’t let the luxurious scent fool you.
It’s got serious healing powers.
Yes, I said mustard.
Yes, like the stuff your grandma used to smear on you when you were sick like some kind of hot-dog-themed home remedy.
Now? You get all the detoxifying, decongesting benefits without the mess.
Spearmint, eucalyptus, and wintergreen team up to clear your sinuses while magnesium swoops in like a tiny spa therapist to soothe your sore muscles.
Even Jillian Harris is obsessed—and that woman has excellent taste and glowing skin. Coincidence? I think not.
Bathorium – The Earthy Elegance Upgrade
If you’re still using drugstore bath salts… bless your heart—but we need to talk.
Bathorium is what happens when clays, essential oils, and minerals join forces to lovingly drag the stress right out of your body.
These soaks aren’t just pretty-smelling—they’re purpose-driven. Whether you’re congested, achey, anxious, or just done, there’s a blend for that.
Bonus: They actually smell like nature, not a synthetic “lavender” air freshener that makes you sneeze.
Bath Poetry – Literal Magic in a Bottle
This bubble bath? I swear it moisturizes my soul.
Birdsong is my personal fave—it smells like a beach vacation where no one’s asking you to make snacks.
Creamy, softening, and wildly luxurious, Bath Poetry is not your kid’s bubble bath.
Also? It’s made in Saskatchewan by Nicolle, who partners with Canadian singer-songwriters and prints their lyrics right on the bottles.
Bath + poetry + music + bubbles = how is this not already in your tub?
The Tofino Hobbyist – Forest Bathing, Literally
This brand brings the Tofino rainforest to your bathroom.
Their Forest Bathing Bubble Soak smells like you ran away to the woods (but in a good way).
It’s grounding, rejuvenating, and somehow makes your faucet sound like a babbling brook.
Close your eyes. Pretend the laundry doesn’t exist. You’re healing.
Ready to soak your way into sanity?
Come into Wren and find your new tub-time soulmate.
Whether it’s detox, moisture, aromatherapy or just five blessed minutes to yourself—
I promise, the right bath can change everything.
Rub-a-dub, friends. You deserve this.
