My marvellous complexion is the
chief item in my beauty and in my
perennial youth.
1t is largely due to cream which
combines a dozen important factors.
To an exquisite cream they have added
products of both lemon and straw
berry. Then all the best modern
science knows to feed and foster, to
soften and protect the skin.
/ used to apply these helps sepa-
rately, but now they combine them in
one. 1 call it my Youth Cream. 1t
comes in two types-cold cream and
vanishing. Both contain all the es-
sential constituents. use the cold
cream as a night cream, the vanish
ing as a day cream. Never is my skin
without them.
