"Our baby boy broke out with eczema on his face when one month old.

After using a cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of O box of CutiCura Ointment, and half Q bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby's. He is now two years and a half old and no eczema has reappeared. ] am still using the Cuticura Soap; l think it is the finest toilet soap ] ever used.
