Lifebuoy is SO different from other toi-

Not a perfume, but a clean, pleasantly
hygienic scent which proves Lifebuoy gives
greater protection. Even before you've
finished your first cake, you'll learn to love
this cleanest of all soap scents, which quickly
evaporates after rinsing.
Without its antiseptic, Lifebuoy would
still be a wonderful toilet soap-but it
wouldn't give you the same measure of

Like millions of others, once you form
the Lifebuoy habit, you'll wonder how any
other soap ever satisfied you.
