Romanticizing the Everyday: Why C by Charmin is the Bathroom Upgrade You Didn’t Know You Needed

I Can’t Believe I’m Saying This… But I’m Obsessed with My Toilet Paper. Okay, hear me out.

I know it sounds a little ridiculous to dedicate an entire blog post to toilet paper. But when I tell you that C by Charmin has actually become one of my favorite small luxuries, I mean it. This isn’t your standard “grab whatever’s on sale” situation. This is toilet paper with scalloped edges. SCALLOPED. EDGES. I’m still not over it.

If you’re someone who loves cozy routines, pretty details, and tiny upgrades that make everyday life feel a little more special—you’re gonna want to stick around for this one.

Romanticizing the Bathroom Routine? Yes, Please.

I’ve always believed in elevating the everyday experience. Why shouldn’t brushing your teeth or washing your face feel just as intentional and soothing as your skincare or morning matcha? So when I tried C by Charmin, I was immediately intrigued.

First of all, it’s so soft. Like, luxury hotel towel that’s been washed a thousand times soft. They call it VelveTouch™, and honestly, the name fits. It has this smooth, plush feel that instantly made me feel like I was treating myself, even during the least glamorous part of my day. You know the one.

The Details That Made Me Weirdly Giddy

Let’s talk about the design for a sec. Because yes, I’m now the kind of person who gets excited about toilet paper design. (No shame.)

C by Charmin has the cutest scalloped edges on each sheet. I didn’t know I needed that, but now that I have it? I never want to go back. It’s such a small thing, but it makes the whole experience feel way more elevated—like the difference between using your partner’s hoodie vs. slipping on a chic robe. You’re still getting dressed, but the vibe is completely different.

Also, can we just appreciate that someone out there said, “You know what toilet paper needs? A glow-up.” And then actually did it?! Legends.

Why I’m Suddenly a TP Snob (And Proud of It)

I didn’t mean to become someone who has strong opinions about toilet paper… but here we are. And the thing is, I’ve realized that these kinds of little upgrades actually make a big difference in how I feel in my space. The more I prioritize comfort, quality, and small joys, the more grounded I feel—especially during chaotic days.

Think about how many times a day you use toilet paper. Why wouldn’t you want it to be a little fancy? A little soft? A little—dare I say—cute?

This is the same mindset that leads me to buy pretty dish soap bottles or spend way too long choosing a bath mat. It’s not about being over-the-top or bougie. It’s about creating an environment that feels good to live in. And for me, that means investing in things that bring even a tiny bit of joy.

Who This Is For (Besides Me, Obviously)

If you:

• Love a good home routine
• Get excited over cozy things like warm socks and pretty candles
• Consider Target runs a form of therapy
• Think “luxury” doesn’t have to mean expensive
• Appreciate design details in places most people overlook

…then you’ll love this too. It’s one of those things you didn’t know you needed until you try it—and then suddenly it’s like, “Oh. This is how it should’ve been all along.”

C by Charmin has turned one of life’s most mundane moments into something that actually feels nice. It’s soft, strong, stylish (!!!), and just overall better than anything else I’ve used. If you’re looking for a little upgrade that delivers way more than expected, this is it. Sometimes it’s the smallest changes that make you feel the most cared for. And if that starts in the bathroom, well… so be it.

Now excuse me while I go light a candle and pretend my bathroom is a five-star spa.
