Sure Ways Of Preventing

-Wrinkles

By HELEN FOLLETT X7HENEVER you see a wornan who is well along in the autumn of life and her, face is still free of wrinkles, you can know that she has avoided lines by at- tending faithfully to her good-looks chores, Preven- tion is easy; cure is almost impossible when furrows have really dug in. That is why every woman should keep her complexion in such perfect condition that time hasn't a chance to deface it. This can be achieved by the free use of a nourishing cream every day or night and sufficient friction to exercise the tissues and underlying fibres. Do not un- derestimate the value of massage which is vitalising and promotes circulation which is so necessary for the health of every little cell.

PREMATURE WRINKLES

If there are signs of pre- mature wrinkles-they can come from illness, loss of sleep, malnutrition or/worry -nourishment in the form of a heavy emollient is necessary. It should be ap plied to a clean skin surface that is aglow after a brisk washing with soap and warm water. The cream then is picked up by the flesh and the campaign for rejuvenation is in progress, results soon on the way!
