What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemion juice to remove compldkion bleum

is acid, therefore irritating, and should
be mixed with orchard white this way.
Strain through a fine cloth the juice of
two fresh lemons into a bottle contain
ing about three ounces of orchard
white, then shake well and you have
a whole quarter pint of skin and com
plexion lotion at about the cost one
usually pays for a small jar of ordinary
cold cream. Be sure to strain the
lemon juice so no pulp gets into the
b)ottle, then this lotion will remain
Hnre and fresh for months. When ap
