OST women these days use powder or rouge, make-up in one way or another. Yet not one woman in fifty knows how to use those accessories in safety to her skin. and make-up will not injure. In- correctly used, they invite a poor complexion. . Note the rule below. Try it for one week. Mark the improvement in your skin. when pores are nightly relieved of their “make-up” accumu- lations with the soothing olive and palm lather of Palmolive in this way: Powders, rouge and all cosmetics bave a tendency to clog the pores « « . often to enlarge them. Black- heads and disfigurements often fol- low. Never let make-up stay on over might. This is all-important, a fun- damental in correct skin care. WHAT YOU MUST DO Wash your face gently with Palmolive Soap, massaging it softly into the skin. Rinse thoroughly. Thei <7eat hoth washing and rins- ing. Apply a touck of cold cream— that is all. “ Follow these rules. Your skin will be soft and lovely. As the months mllby,m'llnecdfiwuudfewu s0aps in the treatment given above. Do not think any green soap, or représented as of palm and olive oils, is the same as Palmolive. BE SURE YOU GET THE REAL PALMOLIVE Remember that before Palmolive came, women were told, “use no soap on your faces.” Soaps then were judged too harsh. Palmeolive is a beauty soap made for one pur- pose only: to safeguard your com- plexion. 60 years of soap study stand behind it. Millions of pretty skins prove its effectiveness beyond all doubt. And it costs but 10c the eake—so little that millions let it do for their bodies what it does for their faces. Obtain Palmolive today. Note what an amazing difference one week makes.
