    Default Bathtime!

    I'm addicted to Lush now, and would love to sit forever in a bath full of Lush bubbles.
    But, every time I run a warm bubble bath and get in, I get so bored after like 5 minutes. Then I start feeling all uncomfortable because my tub is so square, and I almost want to get out.
    How long do ya'll stay in your baths and how do you keep from getting bored???

    it depends which bath i take and what the temp of the water is. often times i get too hot and uncomfortable and i get out. but i always stay in for 20 mins minimum, sometimes more like 45. i take a book and my phone in with me. plus it sometimes just depends on my mood.

    I usually bring my little cd player in the bathroom and just try and relax. I never end up staying in too long, either, though!

    I bring a book. My arms get tired of holding it up out of the water after 10 minutes or so, though. I have to switch positions a lot. Does anyone have any tricks for holding the book up?

    I have a portable dvd player I set up in the bathroom. I tell my bf all the time I wish they made a floating keyboard and mouse so you could surf in the tub!!

    Sometimes I bring a book and I also like to bring the Lush Times and plan out my next shopping trip

    ^^ I totally keep the lush times in my bathroom too!!

    I always turn on the soundscape channel on the tv in the bedroom. Its like spa music and oh so peaceful and serene. If i'm going to read i'll alternate on my back and my belly so my hands don't get as tired. If i'm not going to read i light about 5 candles turn off the lights and just lay there. I sniff at my bath and rub my belly and just relax. I usually buffy or king of skin really good before i get out. I always bring ice water because the hotwater makes me thirsty. Sometimes my husband comes in to visit and sits on the toilet lid and watches me and talks to me. He likes to see his naked wife all wet Then he usually buffys me WHICH I LOVE because he scrubs me really hard and reaches all the spots i can't, then he dries me i would say my baths are usually 30-50 minutes.

    I like to read in the tub too. I'll fill up a gallon size ziploc with air, seal it, and float it over my tummy so I can rest my book on it without it getting wet.

    I don't fill the tub up all the way. Then when it gets cold I add more hot water as needed.

    I used to stay in until I was all pruny, but my jets stopped working and it's like 900 dollars to fix!? Now I can bather for like 10 min or until pruny of hubby is in with me. We like to put candles in the window and talk until the water gets too cold to stay any more.

    Yeah I make the water so hot that I can barely stand it when I get in, and I'm usually out within 20-30 minutes. I like to bring in my laptop to play music, or a plate of cheese, fruit and chocolate and a glass of sparkling cider. It makes it more of a full-body experience.

    I'm new to Lush, but I've spent a huge chunk of my life in the bathtub. I often take baths that are longer than an hour, and occasionally I'll spend the whole day in there (literally). I like to read, and the tub is the best place to do that. Sometimes I bring a CD player in there and listen to music, sometimes I bring hot chocolate or a glass of wine (or even champagne), sometimes I even bring a little snack like good quality chocolate or cheese and crackers. I don't put my hands in the water until I'm ready to finish up and get out, but if my hands get wet I keep my towel within reach. When the water gets cold, I let about half of it drain out and then I turn the hot tap on by itself so it fills up with extra-hot water again.

    Oh, they also make waterproof vibrators you can take in there too, if you want to really indulge yourself!

    See I would lay in there and read all day, but my tub is all square and uncomfortable. Sucks. I wish I had a big jacuzzi tub!

    I take really crappy chick lit novels. Ignore the fact it's research, those things are the best for hogging up time with useless dribble! You get so caught up in who's fucking who and who's wearing this season's Manolos, that you end up 200 pages in the book and an hour in the tub! (I don't think I read fast, I just think these books are quick reads)
