THE REAL CAUSE OF MOST BAD COMPLEXIONS “Health and Beauty.” It is an accepted fact that no truly beautiful complexion ever came out of jars and bottles, and the longer one uses cosmetics the worse the complexion becomes. Skin, to bo healthy, must breathe. It also must expel, through the pores, its share of the body’s effete , material. Creams, and powders clog the pores, interfering both with elimination and . breathing. If more women understood this there would be fewer self-ruined complexions. If they would use ordinary mercolised wax instead of cosmetics they would have natural healthy complexions.
