HOW to PreUent SUnburn and Tan

Let us suppose, however, that
the damage Is done. Your skin
is hot and inflamed on your re-
turn home. What's to be done?
Have you sweet cream in the
lee box? If so, battle your face
freely with it. This should alIay
sunburn if it's a mild case. But
IL your skin still burns, apply
from time to time:
Sweet milk, one cup; slices Of
half a. cucumber.
Tan is becoming 4 to most
women, so you are not likely to
worry oyer a mere coat of this
wholesome tint on your face.
But If for any reason you must
avoid tan, have the following
formula made up:
Orange flower water, three
ounces; strained honey, one
once; cold cream, two ounces;
white almonds pounded to u
paste, one and one-half ounces.
This honey balm" will bleach
the brown hue of your tan, un-
less it is a positively hopeless
case.
My suggestion for summer
time is, first and last and all
the time, keep outdoors. Sleep
outdoors if you can. Eat out.
side on every possible occasion.
Play, swim, ride in the open.
Keep as close as/you can to
good Mother Nature. In this
way, despite all inroads of
freckles, sunburn and tan, sum-
mer time will prove a beauty time
for you.
