How can I redirect the water back to the tub without adding a door to the shower and tub with a tilt towards the front?

My girlfriend’s tub is installed at a slight tilt towards the front, so when water runs down the walls, it ends up hitting the tub and then rolling onto the floor and shower mat. Besides adding a door, do you have any ideas on how we could redirect the water back into the tub?
Bathtub fins
Check out the various Google tub drip protection options. There are a couple of different versions.
If you’re redoing the floor, it might be a good idea to remove the caulking and level the tub. Otherwise, you can attach the tub corners with glue, but it may become a spot for mold and scum to build up.
You can place ‘drip guards’ or ‘tub wings’ on top of the tub near the opening to prevent water from spilling over.
The tub doesn’t need to be re-leveled, but any incline should be minimal. Consider placing the shower curtain further down the end walls to prevent it from moving around in the tub.
