As year* arc added, the true skin remains the same, but the minute scales of which tho scarf skin is built up from beneath grow thicker and harder, and do not fall off when they become dead and useless; consequently tho scarf skin becomes thick, lined, wrinkled and discoloured, completely hiding the beautiful natural complexion which still exists in the true skin beneath, and can only bo brought to light by removing the layers of dead and useless scale.? of the scarf skin. Soap and water and cold creams will remove a few of the loosest scales; but tho closely packed layers of dead cuter titsaa can only be removed by means of a solvent, such as the vegetable wax culled parinol wax, which seems to possess the remarkable property of penetrate# into and gradually loosening and rctuovis# all tha dead caked scales wl ich have bidden and disfigured ihp complexion.
