than remove the dirt
Any soap will clean your skin a bar of
laundry soap will do if you do not care
what becomes of your complexion. But
you know that laundry soap usually con
tains harsh, drying alkali that would ruin
your skin and" hair, so you never think of
using it for your toilet.
Poorly made toilet soaps contain this
same injurious chemical. Resinol Soap
has absolutely no free alkali, while to it is
added the Resinol medication, which phy
sicians prescribe regularly for skin affec
tions. This gives it soothing, healing
properties which improve the complexion,
protect tender skins from irritations, and
keep the hair rich, lustrous and free from
dandruff.
