Once you get your own apartment, or you move from the old one, it’s time to equip it. You feel like you have complete freedom and it’s up to you to decorate it as you wish, but then you figure out that you have no idea what are all the essentials that you need to think about. That’s why it can be helpful to create a list prior to actually buying stuff for your apartment. A bathroom is something every home needs, there’s no arguing there. So, here’s a list of some of the essentials that you need in your bathroom.
Comfortable toilet
Ever since the first flush toilet was manufactured in the late-19th century, it has gained huge popularity and has become one of the most important things of every bathroom. What many often forget is that we do, indeed, need the toilet to be comfortable. So, don’t be afraid to spend a bit more on a toilet that you will be sitting on every day.

A bidet
This is not often found in peoples’ homes, but it can be highly useful. You can choose between electric ones and non-electric ones. If you care to read more about them and find your perfect one, you can check out this detailed review of 15 bidets.
A bath or a shower
The options are numerous when it comes to choosing a perfect bath or a shower. Today, you can find huge, comfortable baths that can easily fit three people. If you like to fill a bath and read a book next to candlelight, then you may dismiss the shower. However, the shower can also be rather satisfying, big and comfortable.

Towels
You’re probably going to need a lot of those. For hands, feet, hair, face. Those should always be kept close at hand near your shower or bath in order to be able to reach them in case you forget to prepare one before entering a shower. Some other things you want to keep close to your shower are razors, shaving creams, body washes, shampoos, conditioners, soap, and practically anything else that you feel you might use while in the shower.
A mirror
It’s a must-have. A big plus of having a mirror is that mirrors can be super stylish. You can easily make your bathroom prettier and more comfortable by adding a mirror in a beautiful, colorful frame. You can make sure it matches your tiles, or you can go wild and pick something that will stand out.
Soap and towel holders
These are just really useful. You don’t want to leave your soap on the sink since it can easily slide off of it and it will constantly be wet and slimy. A cute, fashionable soap holder can also act as an ornament for your bathroom.

A trash can
You’d be surprised just how many times I have gone to the bathroom just to see that there were no trash cans around. Obviously, these bathrooms did not often have a woman in them. It’s frustrating and you’re forced to take your thing to the kitchen in order to dispose of it which can be pretty uncomfortable when you’re a guest in someone’s home.
