To make your skin clear and healthy, to cleanse clogged facial pores, remove blackheads and pimples and to make your and complexion clearer smoother, use Cuticura."
Cleanse the skin with Cuti- cura Soap twice a day. Its fixuriant and mildly antiseptie lather is soothing and softening; washes away pore-deep dirt which causes blackheads, en- larged pores and ugly com plexion defects.
To rid the skin of pimples, ska 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.
