The
Shower Upgrade

Give yourself a little extra time (and attention)

One of the upsides of working from home is that you don't have the feeling like you need to rush through your morning routine. And for us, that translates into taking a little longer in the shower. Letting the warm water run over us for a few minutes more—luxuriating in the steam. After all, there's a reason our best ideas come at us in the shower. While our thinking brain relaxes into an automatic, habitual task, those background thoughts can formulate more freely. But the task of getting clean is still important—and could likely get even better with the addition of a little time and a few well-chosen products. Here, our recommendations for a shower upgrade. From a textured body scrub that will smooth skin and boost circulation to mood-boosting music and masculine shower bombs to invigorate the senses.
