Iam very fastidious about my Talcum Powder

After the bath following vigorous exercise we all reed a powder that is absolutely smooth and silky. That's why I use Cuticura Talcum. It is the most exquisitely fine powder I've ever used. And the perfume is a wonderful blend

both fragrant and wholesome; it'smells so clean and sweet.'

The reason why Cuticura Talcum is used by women who are, extra particular about their toilet powder is that it has a fineness and purity which is unexcelled.

Cuticura is scientifically prepared by a special process-it has the same guaranteed quality of excellence which has made Cuticura Soap famous all over the world. If the skin is overheated and chafed, Cuticura Talcum soothes it at once. Its cool satiny softness is like a balm. Use it'after bathing-before dancing of strenuous exercise. It absorbs perspiration--you stay sweet, dainty and fresh for hours."
