VALUABLE ADVICE FOR I OBTAINING A BEAUTIFUL I COMPLEXION. | BY COURTESY OF A LADY | READER. | While recently glancing through a ladies 1 paper one of our readers no- I ticed a simple formula said to quickly banish all skin irritations and greatly beautify the complexion. Having given considerable study to chemistry, she was immediately interested by the peculiar combination of ingredients. Her skin was rough and sore, from exposure to the sun and wind, so she determined to have the lotion made tip at once. _ She applied night and morning with a soft cloth, and in less than a week, all disagreeable traces of sunburn, rash, and blemishes had entirely vanished; her connexion was soft and smooth: in fact, her appearance was so greatly improved that her own mother was as»toifished, and asked the cause of .the sudden ■ transformation: This led to another trial of the same lotion, and, despite the mother's age, hoi' skin became clear and velvety. But what was even more amazing, the lines and wrinkles which had formed round her eyes and on her forehead, began ,to smooth out - and gradually disappear. Both, mother and- daughter were overjoyed' at this unlooked-for •result, and • wondered if there was not some way of giving the benefit of their experience to other women. They iinalfv decided _to write to one or two of the principal papers about it. Toon receiving their communication, we, gladly consented: to publish for those interested the valuable formula which they had found. It calls for 2ov. rosewater. one dram tincture of benzoin, and 2 ounces Flowers of Ox/.oin, the mixture to be well sliaken before using. We are informed that it is* quite inexpensive. and can bo made up bv any good chemist-, or easily prepared at'home. A prominent member of the Faculty of Medicine of Paris, who specialises in the care of the skin, examined this formula for us, and states that the lotion made therefrom iy perfectly harmless, and, besides being excellent for the complexion. is also unexcelled for quickly eradicating blotelie«. pimples blackheads. etc., which are so disfiguring •to the skin. *
