Trust us, getting yourself into hot water can be a really good thing. Indulging in a man bath can help you relax, decrease symptoms of depression and ease muscle pain. So, grab your rubber ducky, a carton of Epson salt and butch up your tub time with these manly bathtime extras.
Adding a few drops of essential oils to your man bath can be quite medicinal. But we prefer chilling with this Malin + Goetz Cannabis Candle. Light up this refreshing blend of citrus notes, spicy Pepper, Fig, Sandalwood and Patchouli. Inhale the addicting aroma for a most lifted soaking experience. Snacks not included.
There's no better way to decompress from a hellish workday or workout than a man bath. But just how hot should the water be? The answer to that burning question, according to studies, is 112 degrees. Keeping your bathwater around that temperature is optimum when it comes to removing dirt and bacteria without drying out your skin. Bathing with quality products helps too. Skip the kiddie bubble bath and re-energize with a capful or two of Molton Brown Re-charge Black Pepper SPORT Muscle Soak. It boosts circulation, tenderizes tight muscles and flushes out toxins.
It’s important to exfoliate your bod the same way you do your face. Ursa Major Morning Mojo Bar Soap will help you scrub away dirt, grime and dry skin with Volcanic Rock and other natural ingredients like Peppermint, Grapefruit, Shea Butter and Honey. This bath bar supplies just the right amount of friction and creamy lather to bring your skin back to life. Yeah, baby, yeah!
It takes just 15 minutes soaking in the tub for you reap the therapeutic benefits of the man bath. And it takes even less time than that to treat yourself to those grooming steps you just never have time to fit in.

You’ll emerge from the tub with a healthier, well-hydrated complexion that ultimately leads to a much closer and more comfortable shaving experience. Just remember to rinse with clean water and not the dirty water you’ve been sitting in. Ew!
Your facial fur needs love too. While you have the water running, why not heat up this Proraso Beard Hot Oil? Submerge the treatment in a bowl of warm water for one minute and leave on your beard for two. Distribute well and let the whisker pampering begin. Use it once a week to soften, nourish and prevent breakage.
