HOW TO HAVE A BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION.
One of our lady readers who found that her skin was becoming harsh and dry from the use of powders, rouge, and creams, sends us the formula below. She states that the simple, harmless, and inexpensive lotion made therefrom softened her skin, and so greatly enhanced the beauty of her complexion that she has entirely done away with all other preparations which she had been accustomed to use. This lotion can easily be prepared at home, or by any good phannacien. It calls for two ounces of Rose Water, one drachm Tincture of Benzoin, and two ounces Flowers of Oxzoin. Mix together, and apply night and morning with the hands, or use a soft cloth or sponge. Always shake well before using. Our obliging correspondent asks that her name be withheld for personal reasons, but nevertheless gives us permission to publish her letter for the benefit of other readers. She adds that this formula was given her by a woman 65 years old, whose youthful complexion and almost total absence of wrinkles were a source of wonder and admiration to glj who knew her,*
