Bath Products in Canada
Lately, the concept of bathing has unexpectedly become a hot topic. While some people started showering less often during the pandemic, others have developed an interest in creating the perfect bath experience.
A dreamy bathroom aesthetic—think plant-covered quarters, calming music, flickering candlelight and sprinkled with petals— is currently trending on TikTok and Inoki Bathhouse is arguably leading the charge. The Canadian brand has gained over 100,000 followers since posting their first video in February 2021, thanks to their peaceful “take a bath with me” videos, which feature their tea-infused products.
Inoki Bathhouse founder Helen Yin says the inspiration for the Toronto-based company came from her experience with mental health troubles related to the pandemic. “It only made sense that I focused solely on baths—the one place that brought me peace through everything,” says Yin.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, studies show that warm baths, particularly when paired with soft music and calming smells, can improve mental and emotional health. “For me, science aside, it’s the only place where I can truly disconnect away from my phone, away from devices, away from everything,” says Yin. “It’s the only time that I feel like I can find calm and slow down.”

Inoki Bathhouse’s Bath Kits
“I fell in love with baths ever since I watched Spirited Away as a little girl,” says Yin. “The bathing culture in Asia has a rich history that I never had exposure to until the film.” Yin took jasmine tea leaves, which she said are the “scent from [her] happy childhood,” and paired them with other herbs to create teabags for the bath. She offers these bags in a kit, accompanied with other bath goodies like tealight candles, organic lavender and access to a Spotify playlist, to help customers create their own dreamy bath experience.
