Bath Bliss

We’ve all heard of Queen Cleopatra. The Queen of Egypt was renowned for her abilities as well as her stunning beauty. The luxurious baths she soaked in were often infused with ingredients such as rose petals, milk, honey and exotic herbs. Indeed, all of our queens and kings indulged in luxurious baths for long stretches. Egyptians have always been popular for frequent and extensive bathing and wide use of cosmetics. However, it was the Greeks and the Romans who went a step ahead and erected elaborate, expansive and fancy bathhouses where people indulged in invigorating baths.

BATH, A NECESSITY

The tradition of bathing has started since ancient times. Our ancestors realised that dirt encourages diseases and skin issues and understood the importance of cleanliness, hygiene and bathing. When it came to personal hygiene and good health, water was one of the key ingredients used for cleansing. Bathing is a necessity and those who fail to understand its importance suffer various skin issues such as itching, rashes and body odour besides feeling listless and sluggish, especially during summer. However, gone are the times when people indulged in long and luxurious baths. Traditions have changed over the centuries and people have adapted to the evolving cultures and norms. In today’s fast-paced life, five to 10 minutes in the shower are all we can spare for bathing. But then, who says you cannot enjoy a luxurious bath once in a while?
