Skin as Smooth as a Japanese Geisha
Skin as Smooth as a Japanese Geisha After working in rice paddies, Japanese farmers noticed an unexpected but welcome benefit of submerging their hands in rice water all day -- extraordinarily soft and youthful-looking skin. For centuries, Geisha have used the rice water leftover from cooking to wash their face for smooth, soft skin. Rich in vitamin E, rice water is chock full of antioxidants that will help protect your face from free radicals -- you know, those pesky cells that speed up aging and damage your skin in the process.

Try this: Fresh Rice Sake Bath, $82. If your diet doesn't include three helpings of rice a day, fresh rice water is a little more inconvenient to come by. This detoxifying soak will leave skin silky smooth, and TotalBeauty.com reviewers say it also soothes aches and pains.
