Bath Art Trend Makes Latte Art Look Like Dirty Dishes

Bath art is when you take a selfie in the bathtub, but make the background look ridiculously cute because it’s for social media.

For a lot of people taking a bath is the best part of the day and they would like to share it with their Instagram followers. But you can’t just snap a candid shot anymore. The background should look like a decorating magazine. You can even color the water using bath bombs and glitter.

The picture at the top of the page is from Lush Cosmetics. But making a bath bomb is a fairly simple recipe you can do at home. A lot of different beauty brands offer bath bombs. Avoid the red bath bomb unless you want your post to get reported for self injury.

If you are over latte art take a break from the cafe to slip yourself into piping hot bathwater. These Pinterest users are expressing themselves through semi nude bath art. But it’s not just bathtub selfies, there are also drinking pictures, beauty products and cats.

Bright and Cheerful

Much of the bath art on social media appears to be colorful with jewel and neon tones. Add a sprinkling of fresh flowers to the top for a breath of spring.

Dark and Stormy

On the other hand, sometimes people are having a bad day and need a hot bath. Taking a bath in black water is one thing but if you are having suicidal ideation, don’t do it!

Milk Baths Are Healthy

The protein and fat in milk are though to exfoliate the skin, leaving it smooth and soft. Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile, used to take decadent milk baths in ancient Egypt.

Bathing in Paradise

What’s better than a vacay pic on Instagram? Bath art while on vacation in a tropical paradise of course. Use the local flora and art objects as props in the background.

Drinking and Bathing

Obviously the drink of choice for bathroom selfies is white wine, but red wine is also acceptable. Perhaps a bathtub shelf with a tray of snacks and a good book is in order.

Naked Celebrities

Even celebrities have to take a bath, but it’s news if they do it. Pictured are Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber, Marilyn Monroe, Dolly Parton, Christina Aguilera, Miley Cyrus and Lenny Kravitz.

These epic bathroom selfies take bath art to the next level. Obviously you have to do more now than just take a photo in the mirror during your break at work. Ditch the latte art and enhance your portfolio of slutty pictures with bath art. Don’t forget the glitter, flowers and bath bombs.
