Bubble Baths have been popular for as long as baths with surfactant-based soap have been a thing. There are multiple practical uses for them, ranging from the unexpected to the curiously unthought of. Bubble baths have been renowned for their ability to soothe and relax, but this doesn’t actually address the more interesting reasons behind their popularity. Bubbles have the ability to help remove and prevent the nasty ring that forms around your bath-tub, leaving you, and your tub, that much cleaner. Additionally, it can effectively preserve the modesty of one in a bath as the bubbles obscure vision. Additionally, the bubbles act as an insulator, preserving the heat of the bath and allowing you to luxuriate in it even longer. Bubble baths in general, speaking of the substance one puts in ones bath to cause the bubbles, are often pleasantly scented, and many of them are combined with ingredients that serve to help moisturise the skin and relax the bather. I have sensitive skin, so I have to make my own bubbles
I'd rather have a shower followed by a session in a sauna then another shower. Alternatively, the Japanese way where you wash and scrub yourself clean before soaking in a bath, a Japanese Onsen is the epitome of luxury.
Don’t bath very often mainly cost takes longer but when I do ,I must admit I feel better after it. It helps my back and I can make bubbles . I do think the Romans had it right doing it together in larger establishments like we used to years ago . I do like a sauna too .
Last bubble bath would have been in around 1965 so my contribution to this thread can only be as follows: Bill and Ben in the Bath ... Bill: "Flobba lobba lobba lob!" Ben: "If that smells I'm out of here ..."
It's a very old joke and that is a nice little development ... I'll be "working it up" now to include the little weeeeeed
