Teri Hatcher Soaks in Wine  5/20/07

Actress Teri Hatcher has found a new use for the wine she doesn't drink - she bathes in it.

The Desperate Housewives star admits she hates being wasteful and when a pharmacist friend advised her not to tip wine she doesn't drink away, but pour it into her bathwater, Hatcher started enjoying vintage soaks.

She explains, "When you're alone you open a bottle of wine and then it's not really good after four or five days.

"This make-up chemist that I know was talking about all the good properties in wine - antioxidants and stuff, exfoliating qualities - and she said, `Never throw it out, dump it in your bath.'"
