Get rid of Disfiguring Blemishes
this
Easy Way
Nothing
can be more distract ing to a woman than ugly pimples, burning irritations or patches of blackheads or en larged pores on the face or neck. Some resort to heavy powdering in an effort to hide them whilst others cause the skin become muddy - looking, coarse and blemished by using the wrong treatment.
to
To make your skin clear and healthy,
to cleanse clogged facial pores, remove blackheads and pimples and to make your complexion clearer and smoother, use Cuticura.
AIN
No. 6
Cleanse the skin with Cuti- cura Soap twice a day. Its luariant and mildly antiseptic lather is soothing and softening; washes away pore-deep dire which causes blackheads, en- larged pores and ugly com plexion defects.
To rid the skin of pimples, skin outbreaks, rashes or irrita- tions use Cuticura Ointment direct on the affected part before washing with the soap. Its anti- septic action kills germs, soothes and heals and quickly clears the skin.
Cuticura
For Clear Healthy Skin
Sold by all Chemists and Stores. Ask for Cuticura Soap and Cutica Ointment. And for powder use Cuticura Talcum-exceptionally fine and pure, exquisitely perfurned.
