BEAUTY BATHS—OF ALL KINDS How many women who go in for beauty baths know how to choose those especially adapted to their particular needs? In preparing “slimming” baths, for example, do not overload the water with salts; this treatment is too drastic, not only in its reducing power, but also in its effect on the skin. Into an ordinary hot bath put lib of Epsom salts —not the refined salts, but the coarsest kind—take your bath in the ordinary way, remain in it at least 10 to 15 minutes, and rub vigorously with a loofah wherever you particularly wish to reduce. Do not take these baths every day. Two or three times a week is enough. And do not take them in the morning. Just before retiring is the correct time. If you have had a tiring day, and want a really refreshing bath, mix about half an ounce of benzoin with four ounces of eau-de-Cologne, and one quart of vinegar, and add this mixture to the bath water. It has a wonderful effect on tired muscles. Do not take very hot baths if you wish to retain the silky smoothness of your skin. Cold plunges, on the other hand, tend to harden the skin. For warding off wrinkles, nothing is more effective than a barley bath. Immerse a handful of pearl barley in a pint of water until all the grains are thoroughly softened, sieve the barley water through fine muslin, add half a dozen drops of tincture of benzoin, shake well, and add to the bath water. Another good bath is made with starch. Dissolve two to three ounces of starch in a little hot water, add an equal quantity of fresh milk, stir well, and pour the solution into your bath. Besides beautifying the skin, it will soothe worn-out nerves. Women with sallow skins who have tried cosmetics and found them of little avail, will derive much benefit from tomato juice and eau-de-Cologne baths. If possible, keep the water running all the time. Extract the juice from three or four ripe tomatoes, and for each tablespoonful allow ten drops of eau-de-Cologne; add to the bath water, and bathe in the usual way.
