VANISHING CREAMS

What are the virtues of vanishing
| creams? Many people ask me, and l
have to answer that it depends upon
the cream. A poor quality vanishing
cream has no virtue at all, a good one
is useful in some ways.
Ordinary cold cream, which is sim
ply cleansing or flesh building cream
! which contains nourishing oils, is
| quite all right for daily use But even
the best of vanishing creams, in my
| opinion, should only be used now and
then. believe that they clog the
pores, hold into the texture of the skin
whatever soil or powder may be upon
the surface, and generally interfere
with the skins ordinary functions.
But occasionally, if the skin is
rough or chapped or very dry, a little
I good quality vanishing cream (applied
| only after a thorough washing with
! soap and hot water) will be beneficial.
1t will make the skin seem soft and
| smooth for the moment, therefore
serves good purpose. But as habit,
| | would never advise it.
However, vanishes cream is splendid
for the elbows. Here the texture OF
the skin is coarse-at least in compare
son to that of the face-usually too, it
is dry and rough. Vanishing cream
applied after the elbows have been
scrubbed with soap and hot water, will
make the skin smooth and soft and
ready for thick coating of powder
This treatment is best if done just
before you put on sleeveless or short
sleeved gown. The unfortunate part
. is, that the elbows will pick up ar
extraordinary amount of dust while the
) cream is on them.
