My little six-months old girl had Eczema.
We used all kinds of remedies, but she kept
getting worse l used to wrap her hands up
and to dress her had to put her on the table
l could not hold her. she would kick and
scream, and, when she could, she would tear
her face and arms almost to pieces. Four
boxes of CUTICURA (ointment) two cakes of
CUTICURA SOAR, and CUTICURA REsoLvENT
cured her, and no traces are left.
