Why wellness suits Valentine's Day so well

Valentine's Day is less about the object than about the gesture: I'm thinking of you, I'm making time for us. Wellness gifts do exactly that. A hammam towel, a bathrobe or a care set brings back the moment it was given every time it is used. And it invites you to do something together – from a sauna day to a quiet evening on the sofa.

There is also a practical advantage: a good towel or a care product actually gets used. It doesn't sit on a shelf gathering dust.

For couples who go to the sauna together

If you regularly go to the sauna as a pair, a complete set of equipment makes a great Valentine's gift. The hammam towel set Paar contains four Ocean hammam towels (180 × 100 cm) and two StayOn hammam towels (200 × 70 cm) for the loungers. That gives each of you one towel for the bench, one for drying off and one for the relaxation room. Bought individually, the towels cost €209.40 in total; with the set you save €39.50.

One advantage over thick terry towels: hammam towels are flat-woven, light and take up little space in the bag. So the equipment for two fits easily into one shared bag. How to make the visit itself relaxed is described in the article Going to the sauna as a pair.

For a spa evening at home

Not every couple wants to spend Valentine's Day in a crowded spa. A quiet evening at home can be just as special. Gifts that can be used straight away are ideal for this:

• Scrub for two: the VEGAN FOX body scrub trio contains three body scrubs of 300 g each, so everyone can choose their favourite scent.
• Shower gel in two scents: the VEGAN FOX shower gel is available with linden blossom, grapefruit or red grape.
• A large towel as a blanket: a MAHINA hammam towel measuring 180 × 100 cm is light enough to lay over your legs on the sofa.

How to prepare the evening step by step is explained in the article Spa evening at home. If you'd like to add a massage at the end, you will find tips in Partner massage at home.

Small gestures with style

Sometimes all you want for Valentine's Day is a small token. Even then it doesn't have to be the usual box of chocolates:

• Towel To Go: a hammam towel made of 100 % cotton with white stripes and hand-knotted fringes, packed in a round gift box. So the wrapping is already done.
• Hand cream: the Nourishing hand cream with shea butter and macadamia (120 ml) is a small gift that gets plenty of use in February.
• Insulated bottle: the IZY Van Gogh Flowers insulated bottle with 500 ml comes along on walks, to the office or to the sauna.

A bathrobe for Valentine's Day: for her, for him or as a matching pair

A bathrobe is a gift that gets used every day – after showering, on Sunday mornings or during a sauna break. Two models are particularly well suited to Valentine's Day:

• Trimita hooded bathrobe: the Elephant hooded bathrobe in pink/white and the Zebra hooded bathrobe in grey/white are women's bathrobes made of three-layer muslin, 100 % Turkish cotton and OEKO-TEX certified. The light crinkle texture is part of the fabric. €59.90 each.
• Trimita Barok bathrobe: the Barok bathrobe is made of light, quick-drying cotton, has a tie belt and pockets and comes in green, blue and red in sizes S/M and L/XL. Also €59.90.

If you like matching outfits, choose two bathrobes in the same colour or deliberately in two colours from one range. You will find more ideas in the article Matching bathrobes. All models are in our bathrobes collection.

What to consider when choosing

• Know the size: for a bathrobe, a discreet look at their favourite robe at home is worth it. S/M and L/XL cover a wide range at Trimita.
• Coordinate colours: the same colour for both, or two different ones so everyone recognises their towel straight away in the sauna.
• Choose a scent: for the shower gel you can choose between linden blossom, grapefruit and red grape. If you don't know their favourite scent, simply give two different ones and try them together.
• Think about use: if you often go to the sauna, towels and a light bathrobe are ideal. If you prefer staying at home, scrub and skincare are a better fit.

Turning the gift into time together

The nicest Valentine's gift is often what happens afterwards. So add a homemade voucher that links the gift with an experience:

• "Voucher for a sauna day for two – I plan, you relax." You will find ideas for the schedule in A whole sauna day.
• "Voucher for a spa evening: phones off, scrub, tea and a blanket."
• "Voucher for a back massage with no time pressure."

A handwritten voucher costs nothing and turns an object into a date. That is exactly what Valentine's Day is about.

Wrapping and planning ahead

The gift box measures 32 × 23 × 9 cm and has room for one hammam towel and one or two care products. If you prefer to wrap it yourself, you will find ideas in the article Giving and wrapping a hammam towel.

Also allow a little buffer: 14 February is fixed well in advance, but shipping is often busier shortly before. So it's better to order a few days early.
