"Victoria" Bath and Beauty (Victoria Magazine) Book

Pamper yourself--you deserve it. Victoria Bath & Beauty from Victoria magazine takes you through the seasons with different beauty routines based in the one room where you have solitude and sanctuary: the bathroom. The book offers many cleansing routines and tips, recipes for skin treatments, and decorating ideas for your bathroom, all organized by season. In spring, for example, adorn your bathroom with flowers, bath linens, cotton rugs, antique lace towels, and a wreath of fresh lavender. Make your own Lemon- Tangerine Hand Cream or Jonquil perfume. Soothe your eyes with chilled cucumber slices. Give your face a little spring cleaning with an herbal steam treatment. In summer, take an herbal rose bath, wear blossoms in your hair, give yourself a pedicure, and make Calendula (marigold) Massage Oil. In autumn, meditate in a milk bath, use fragrances like cinnamon and cloves, and make a potpourri of autumn leaves. The book is filled with soft photographs of unusual, decorative bathrooms and accouterments. Victoria Bath & Beauty is a fine gift for a woman who enjoys pampering herself with beauty routines or who is looking for ideas for redecorating her bathroom. --Joan PriceRead More

  • Product Description

    This glorious book showcases the bath as the epitome of calm and privacy. Speaking to a woman's desire for a bit of luxury and quiet time, Victoria Bath & Beauty offers hints and tips for creating an atmosphere with the feel of a home spa.

    Victoria's editors haven't forgotten anything, from plush towels to rose petals floating in the water to lavish sponges. Everything needed to create a tranquil mood is here as well: potpourri, candles, bath pillows, scented soaps. There are even "recipes" for lotions to be smoothed on after the bath so that a pampered feeling continues long after the moment of respite is only a memory.

    Lush photographs of the bath and its indulgences make this a beautiful book as well as a useful one. Victoria Bath & Beauty considers the beauty of the setting -- fine carpets, pedestal sinks, and brass lighting fixtures -- as well as the amenities that create quiet and pleasure. And a source list provides real help in finding these indulgences. Victoria speaks with authority to the romantic and feminine side of life and what better way to express this than through the ritual and beauty of the bath!
