After the blackheads have been removed PORE CREAM must be applied to refine and close up the Pores.

VENETIAN HEALING CREAM is excellent for Erup- tions and Pimples. It should be lightly applied over. the affected spots as soon as they appear..

VENETIAN ACNE LOTION can be used as a Powder Foundation over Spots and Pimples. It is an antiseptic healing Lotion which frees the skin of all Eruptions.
