7 Guest Bathroom Must-Haves

When it comes to making guests feel at home, it's all in the details. Scented lotions and cozy towels are sure to do the trick. Our editors share their favorite indulgences, starting at just $3.99. Your guests may never want to leave!


CANDLE

"I put out travel-sized candles. They make the room smell great, plus, no worries if you forgot to give the place a thorough scrub-down: It'll look less dirty by candlelight!" Lauren Matthews, senior web editor. ($10 for 3 oz.; paddywax.com)


HANDSOAP

"I love, love, love Method handsoap in the bathroom. I'm particularly fond of Waterfall (beautiful turquoise blue color) and Cucumber (energizing lime green color) 'cause they smell great. They can get expensive, so I buy one bottle with the hand pump then buy the larger refill bags through Target.com and just fill them up when they empty out." Genevieve Sterbenz, style editor ($3.99; methodhome.com)


TOWELS

"ABC Home carries the most beautiful bath towels. These cheery ones are lightweight and super fast-drying." Paige Alexus, assistant style and market editor


SHOWER GEL

"I love the new Havana line from Archipelago because it reminds me of Cuba. I feel like I'm taking a bath while chatting with Hemingway." Erica Rose Simpson, editorial assistant.


HOUSEPLANT

Many plants thrive in low-light environments. Perch an orchid or peace lily on the sink or windowsill, or snip some blooms or fronds to stash in a colorful vase.


GLASS

Provide cups, so that guests don't have to stumble down to the kitchen if they feel parched in the wee hours. These glass tumblers also double as stylish toothbrush holders.


HANDCREAM

This lavendar salve is so popular that a tube sells every three seconds! The scent is blissfully soothing and the shea-butter cream is ultra hydrating.
