Take care of yourself, love this post - baths give me life! That mask is great, have you tried the Clarins cryo-flash mask? It’s my go too and I have three friends hooked on it! Clarins is a bit under rated imo!

I’ve been using Masque Vivant for years and hadn’t heard about mixing with baking soda - thanks for the tip!

Agree on the wonders of the bath! Epsom Salts always, and I agree that the Flewd ones are incredible (if a little spendy), but totally worth it! So many people are down on baths or swear they never take them...and I could just not abide a life without a bath at least once a week. To those that eschew the full bath ritual, I say, you go on and rent the apartments that are "shower stall only" and leave the cute claw-footed tubs for us! You don't need a bath? Don't you get one!

LOL. Tub inventory!!

It's a thing! In my city (San Francisco), landlords renovate bathrooms by pulling out tubs and just putting in shower stalls. Nothing makes me more unhappy — and yes, it also limits the inventory!

I’m honestly fine! Just a little tired ❤️

OK, sure, a phone or laptop for bingeing Netflix in the bath is totally viable and valid. BUT! Let me put you onto something even better: a petite smart TV atop a floating shelf (you can mount it a few inches above a toilet tank or wherever makes sense for your setup). OK, not sure if links are allowed in comments, but: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-24-class-f20-series-led-hd-smart-fire-tv/6491295.p (under $70 ARE YOU KIDDING ME?). And I found some 24-inch floating wood shelves on Amazon that matched the medium MCM wood tone of my bathroom skylight's frame, but these from Mustard are soooo cute that I want every color: https://us.mustardmade.com/products/the-ledge-in-lilac-large
