Guide Picks - Bath & Shower Accessories
The right tool for the right job. Theses bath accessories are used regularly by the Spa Guide and recommended to make your time in the bath a very pampering experience.
1) Short-Handled Bristle Bath Brush
Use this to 10' wooden brush to gently dry brush the skin before showering or bathing to exfoliate and loosen flaky skin. Follow up with a shower or relaxing mineral bath and an application of moisturizing body lotion. Just like the one used in the Lavender Relax Treatment at Quintessence, A Day Spa in Atlanta, GA.

2) Nylon Gel Sponge
This soft, blue & green mesh 'sponge' is great for lathering up. Hangs on its own cord and air-dries nicely so it won't mildew. Use it in the shower or bath with soap or bath and shower gels.
3) Detachable Long-Handled Bristle Bath Brush
Traditional, 16-inch bath brush with bristles will treat your skin to a skin a vigorous cleansing massage in the shower or bath.
4) Loofah Body Massager
Use for dry massage, or in the shower or bath (with or without soap) to help exfoliate dry skin and stimulate circulation. 6" x 4" oval cotton terry and loofah massager slips over the hand and is held in place by an elastic strap and is just like the one used in the Allegheny Raspberry Relaxer Treatment at The Homestead Spa in Hot Springs, VA.

5) Natural Sponge
Soft, absorbent, luxurious natural wool sea sponge. Sponges vary in size and shape and will last a long time with proper care. Crabtree & Evelyn sponges are conservatively harvested without damage to undersea reefs. 
6) Eye Masks
Give your eyes a treat when they feel tired, puffy or strained with an mask that will soothe and refresh them. Great for travel.
7) Bath Pillow
Bath pillow wrapped in terry cloth is designed great for long relaxing soaks in the bathtub. Suction cups keep the pillow in place.
8) Roses
If you want a very special bath, consider sprinkling rose petals on the water as they do in the open-air turret bath of the Lann Chang Spa Suite at the Lanna Spa, Regent Chiang Mai in Thailand. If you can't bear to pull them apart, they will make the bathroom beautiful.

10) Egyptian-Cotton Towels Bath Sheet
Luxurious Egyptian-cotton bath sheets for maximum absorbency and minimal pilling.
