The everything shower has become one of those quietly powerful self-care rituals - not because it’s extravagant, but because it turns an everyday habit into an intentional moment of calm.
Below, we’re breaking down the everything shower upgrades we love — the exact elements we’d pin, save and come back to — and how each one contributes to a calmer, more elevated ritual.

What Is An 'Everything Shower'?
It's original meaning is about adding more steps for the sake of it. But it's new meaning - It’s about upgrading the experience. Slower lighting. Better scent. Nourishing formulas. Small details that help your nervous system soften and your mind switch off.
Creating a spa-like shower at home can genuinely boost wellbeing. Scent influences mood, warm water relaxes muscles, and intentional rituals help us feel more present - especially at the end of a busy day. With the right upgrades, your shower can become a grounding reset rather than something you rush through.
Everything Shower Upgrades to Transform Your Routine
1. An Aromatherapeutic Room Mist
Before the water even starts, scent sets the tone.
Using an aromatherapeutic room mist in your bathroom helps create a feeling of calm and intention from the moment you step inside. Spritz the air, towels or shower curtain to gently scent the space before you begin.
A well-formulated mist can:
Instantly shift the mood of a room
Signal the start of a slower ritual
Help you transition out of the day and into rest
This step grounds the experience and makes the shower feel purposeful rather than routine.
Must Have Mist:
2. A Waterproof Shower Lamp for Soft Lighting
Lighting has a huge impact on how relaxed we feel.
Swapping harsh overhead lights for a waterproof shower lamp or soft ambient lighting instantly creates a spa-like atmosphere. Warm, low light encourages the body to relax and signals that there’s no rush.
This simple upgrade:
Feels calming to the nervous system
Adds instant aesthetic appeal
Makes the shower feel indulgent rather than functional

3. Cinnamon Club Shower Oil
A shower oil is one of the most transformative upgrades you can make. As warm water hits the oil, it emulsifies into a silky milk - leaving skin feeling soft, nourished and comfortable. Plus it smells incredible.
Our Cinnamon Club Shower Oil turns cleansing into a sensory ritual, releasing comforting aromatherapy notes while deeply conditioning the skin. It’s ideal for slow evening showers or whenever skin feels dry or depleted.

4. A Boujie Body Wash You Love Using
Texture and scent matter more than we realise.
A luxury body wash you genuinely enjoy using can elevate the entire shower experience. Look for formulas that feel rich and indulgent, with a scent that complements your aromatherapy rather than overpowering it.
This step is about pleasure - choosing something that makes you want to slow down, take your time, and be present.
A Must Have:
5. A Fresh Eucalyptus Shower Bundle
Hanging an eucalyptus bundle from your shower head is one of the easiest ways to create instant spa energy at home.
As the steam rises, natural aromatic oils are released into the air, filling the shower with a fresh, calming scent that feels deeply restorative. It’s a simple, visual addition that transforms the atmosphere with very little effort.
Perfect for evenings when you want to reset or unwind.
If You Can't Make Your Own:
6. A Wooden Scalp Massage Brush
The scalp holds more tension than we often realise.
Using a wooden scalp massage brush while shampooing encourages circulation, releases built-up stress, and adds a grounding tactile element to the ritual. Slow, circular movements paired with warm water can feel almost meditative.
This step helps turn hair washing into a moment of calm rather than a rushed t
Our Pick:
The Post-Shower Ritual (Don’t Skip This Part)
The everything shower doesn’t end when you turn off the water.
Extend the sense of calm with a few intentional post-shower touches:
A warm towel waiting
A spritz of aromatherapeutic mist on towels, robes or linens
Slow, unhurried skincare
These small rituals help carry the relaxed feeling into the rest of your evening, rather than snapping straight back into busyness.
Final Thoughts
You don’t need to overhaul your entire routine to create an everything shower.
Start with one upgrade - softer light, better scent, a more nourishing cleanser - and build from there. Over time, these small, intentional choices can turn an ordinary shower into a grounding ritual that genuinely supports your wellbeing.
Because sometimes, the most powerful self-care moments are the ones we already make time for — we just experience them differently.
