Teri Hatcher bathes in wine!

Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher has apparently revealed she keeps her skin looking good by bathing in wine.

The Daily Express reports that the 42-year-old actress hates being wasteful and will often use the wine she doesn't drink to make bath times more fun.

She apparently got the tip from a friend, who sang the praises of fermented grape juice as a beauty product.

"When you're alone, you open a bottle of wine and then it's not really good after four or five days," the former Lois Lane is quoted as saying.

"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'."

Teri, who plays hapless Susan Mayer in Desperate Housewives, didn't specify whether white or red produced the best results...
