Cold cream is one thing that will protect the complexion during the winter from cold winds and fog. When you have been out in a fog or cold wind massage your face thoroughly with cold cream before washing, and the skin will become soft and supple. Wash afterwards with soap and water. At night the treatment should be reversed. The face should be washed with soap and water first, and cold cream thoroughly rubbed in with clean fingers afterwards.
