Many beauty specialists advocate the use of cream only on the face, and base their claim on the fact that the skin over the face is very thin and fragile. Although this is quite true, it must also be borne in mind that, unless the skin is thoroughly cleansed, blackheads, open pores, and many other skin blemishes will result, It is practically agreed that soap, although it may be a trifle drying, is the best cleansing agent.
As neither cream nor soap can claim a preponderance of advantages over its rival, why not let us combine the two and we will then have a perfect method of cleansing and lubrication. Let us start the day with a good skin cleansing Use plenty of soap and water, as this will have a stimulating effect and will rid the skin of the fatty and waste matter which it has accumulated during the night. And at night, let us apply our cream, so that its soothing action and nourishing benefits will quietly do their work whilst we sleep. Instead of allowing these two to be rivals, make them combine in the fight for beauty.
