MAX FACTORS discovery the SECRET KEY throws open the barrier that may
be your s thus enabling your and lotions to work most effectively!

We spent thousands of hours searching for
answers to these puzzling questions and I'M
covered this startling fact There is often chemical
barrier in the skin itself 1ohich keeps creams and
lotions from getting IN and icorking most effectively.
This barrier develops when the skin does not have
correct pH* balance. 1t is either too acid too
alkaline.
No wonder many women who were Dreaming their
skins faithfully night after night finding only
disappointment in their mirrors, day after day.
A way had to be discovered to break through this
stubborn barrier, to enable creams and lotions to
bring relief to parched or oil-clogged skin cells.
| can now reveal that scientists have found
the icdy to do this successfully through the use of
remarkable new liquid preparation we developed
for this purpose. The Secret Key!

asparagus: Take several of the
large tough ends which usually
have to be cut from the stalks
and place them at one side of
the pan in which the aspara-
gus is to be cooked. Then ar
range the stalks in the pan
with the heads resting on the
cutoff ends. This raises the
tender heads out of the water
where they will not get as
much cooking as the other end,
which is firmer and requires
more cooking. This way the
whole stalk will get done uni

stalks are laid fiat in the pan,

much for the tender heads,
