Product Description
Here's a fun collection of more than 50 recipes for transforming a bath into a delicious escape, aimed at women who want to pamper themselves with at-home treatments that rival those at the most fashionable spas. Those who spend too much time in dirty, crowded cities can detoxify with the "Big City" bath containing citrus fruit and mustard powder. "Turbo Tub" provides energy, while "Drowsy Lavender Bath" is meant to calm and induce sleep. Each recipe is composed of natural, healthful ingredients, and accompanied by suggestions for appropriate bath toys. Illustrated with colorful, informative artwork, The Bath Gourmet even has a waterproof vinyl cover. From Publishers Weekly: Whether they're seeking to soothe themselves, cure pains, relax, romance a partner or even have a snack while getting clean, bathers will find a recipe for the perfect bath in this DIY volume by enthusiastic bather Van.... Helpful sidebars abound, explaining how to score cheap rose petals at the florist for the Ultimate Seduction Rose Bath, where to find canned coconut milk for the Tiki Tub, and how to pour rice into the foot of a stocking for the Sushi Bath.

This is a good book for those of you who like to enhance their bath and relaxation time with great bath recipes. This book is really designed to make the recipe concoctions quite simple, inexpensive yet most satisfying. It's a good read and I refer to it often when I want to try some new recipes. Well recommended!

WOOW ( biology1020 )
Exteremely cool bath ideas = this book is a sensual delight just to read & imagine bathing in all this stuff. What would have taken this book OVER THE TOP would have been to add sensual/erotic photography of all the baths described instead of just line drawings of the ingredients.

One of my favorite books!! ( mkrios )
I have to say, this book was a godsend for me! Some other bath books have you buy expensive essential oils for the bath recipes, but the recipes in this book require things you usually have on hand and extracts that you can easily find at the grocery store. Plus it has a plastic book jacket (in case you read it in the tub and get it wet!) and chapters on making your own bath recipes and bath bombs, melts, muffins, etc. I was trying a new bath recipe every night!
