The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1921-07-07

This is the time of the year when
all beauty problems give way before
the great one of what to do about
freckles and sunburn Unfortunately,
it is a very difficult problem Some
compilations are so sensitive that the
not sun acts almost as poison, while
other skins acquire a healthy tan
which lasts far into the winter months.
There are all sorts of prepared To-
tons that are supposed to act quickly
upon sunburn, but these are neces-
sarily very strong, and I hesitate TO
recommend them. Many compilations
cannot stand strong lotion
That is why ! talk so much about
methods of prevention. But If, III
spite of your efforts, your skin has
acquired too many freckles or a strong
coat of tan. | would advise you to
choose a slower method Of bleaching
with some lotion you know to be
harmless. Personally, l think cucu7n.
Der milk is unrivalled for keeping the
skin smooth and white. 1t will bleach
freckles and sunburn to a really great
extent, and it has the advantage OF
making the skin fine-grained as well
as bleaching it. Indeed, it is very
good for the skin. Here is the for
mula:
Cucumber Milk.
Oil of sweet almonds. .....4 ounces
Fresh cucumber juice. ..... 10 ounces
Essence Of cucumbers. ......3 ounces
White CASTLE soap. powdered II ounce
Tincture OF benzoin. rs drachM
The Juice of the cucumbers is OBJ
l.. ~ r. yp
slowly in a little water and straining
Make the essence by putting an ounce
and half of the juice into the same
quantity of alcohol. Shake this with
the soap in a large jar. When dis
solved add the cucumber juice and
when mixed, add the oil and the ben
zoin, stirring until the liquid /:
creamy. Keep in tightly corked bot
ties in the dark and shake we'll be
fore using.
