Is there something I could do to overcome this? Perplexed. Answer It sounds very much as though your circulation needs stimulating. Your skin is. I presume, very thin and sensitive. I would start a routine of exercises and tone up the skin circulation.

Use a mild astringent. Pat well night and morning. Use a protective cream foundation over neck and face undrr your powder. You will see results. Dear Lois Leeds I am, greatly troubled by blackheads.

I wash my face three times a day. It dose no good. I don't eat much in sweets yet I get more pimples every day. Ruth St. Louis.

The dry-skin season is here! Many or the letters regarding this problem. The wind dries the skin that Is without protection, the indoor heat adds another drying element.

Your skin must be protected, but it must be gently fed by rich, deeply penetrative cream. Science takes note of the pie-dominance of dry skins and does something about this distressing condition. Many of the emollients created to combat dry skin contain lanolin, which is similar to the natural skin oils. The scientists have now created the process of homogenized cream. That's a high-powered, scientific word that means simply pressure mixing.

The process reduces small globules of oil or fat to tiny particles. Lanolin which is subjected to this process penetrates the outer surfaces of the skin, thus softening the tissue and aiding in smoothing lines and wrinkles. The cream is applied night and morning, patted in with quick but gentle tapping of the fingertips. It should be applied with finger stroking and gentle pressure on lines around the eyes and between the eyes. Wc see the "before" lady applying the cream.

We see the after effect in a smoother, less lined skin. A smile illuminates her features. She is encouraged by her new skin softness to do her hair in a more becoming fashion. She uses a smooth, light protective film of foundation cream, a smooth application of matched-to-skln-tone powder. She adds earrings to light up the new happiness in her eyes.

If you use soap and water apply cream afterwards. Cleansing cream gives the best results. Ap-! ply the cream night and morning. Pat gently with skin freshener to stimulate circulation. Never go out without foundation cream as a protection.

Apply a layer of cream after being exposed to cold and winter winds. Always use cream rouge. A mask once a week is very helpful. Send for your leaflet on how to properly cleanse your skin. But remember a plainly self -addressed envelope is necessary for you to receive your leaflet.

Dear Lois Leeds Can you tell me what causes my skin to turn blue as soon as cold weather comes?
