Are Hand Soap and Toothpaste the Ultimate Symbols of Quiet Luxury?

If hand soaps were celebs, Aesop’s Resurrection would be Beyoncé. Perhaps the most recognizable bottle of soap in the world, this gentle formulation contains oils of orange, rosemary and lavender, for an effective clean that doesn’t dry your hands out. And, obviously, there’s that lasting scent. But we probably didn’t need to tell you that.

This is no ordinary room spray. Homecourt is Courteney Cox’s new line of hand soaps, dish soaps, candles, room deodorants and more, featuring some truly stunning, elevated scents (think: Steeped Rose, Cipres Mint, and Neroli Leaf). Housed in chic, minimalist packaging, these room deodorants actively neutralize bad odours at the molecular level while imparting lasting fine fragrance. This is a surefire way to make your bathroom smell like a million bucks.

Women-led, Canadian brand Mintier launched the world’s first oil-based breath serum made in Canada using all-natural ingredients that are carefully selected to provide a long-lasting and refreshing effect. Formulated with a blend of essential oils, like peppermint, spearmint and lemon, Mintier’s breath serum eliminates bad breath instantly. Unlike other breath fresheners on the market that contain sugars and preservatives, it’s 100% natural, safe for daily use and dentist-approved and recommended. Chic, non?

Wouldn’t you have believed us if we told you this ultra-stylish bottle was a luxury body lotion? But this gorgeous pick is actually mouthwash (!). This remineralizing mouthwash works hard to freshen breath while supporting healthy teeth. It’s alcohol-free and pH-balanced, protecting tooth enamel for a brighter, whiter smile.

With scent profiles like sweet orange, cedarwood and sage, you’d think these were the notes in your new favourite luxe perfume. Grown Alchemist’s elevated hand soaps are available in refillable pouches, and come in the aforementioned scent, as well as Tasmanian pepper, tangerine, chamomile, and cedarwood atlas, ylang ylang, tangerine. The gel formula is infused with botanical oils that hydrate without disturbing the skin’s pH balance.

Any product in a metal or aluminum tube is instantly chic (we don’t make the rules), but Davids’ fluoride-free formulas take the cake thanks to muted colours and refined flavours (charcoal + peppermint and herbal citrus peppermint, for instance).

Who knew floss could be chic? With flavours like mint, coconut, strawberry or orange, and packaging this cute, you may even begin to look forward to your nightly floss.

Yes, even bar soap is capable of a quiet luxury upgrade. This Joanna Vargas face and body soap bar is formulated with coconut oil, shea butter and chamomile water, to nourish and hydrate. And with a name like Cloud Bar, it’s hard to resist this dreamy bathroom must-have.

Did you think we’d leave lube off the list? The last few years have ushered in a major shift in the world of sexual wellness, and part of that has been a rise in elevated lube options. (Yes, we said elevated lube.) Enter: Playground’s water-based lubricants, available in scents like Champagne & Vanilla, Coconut & Sandalwood, and Musk & Oudwood.

Okay, this linen and room spray isn’t necessarily for your bathroom, but who would argue that a linen and room spray isn’t the epitome of quiet luxury? This spray by DRMTLGY is a combo of lavender, chamomile, witch hazel and jojoba oil and can be used on bedsheets, pillowcases, yoga mats, towels and more.
