We aren´t the only generation to suffer from blemishes. In years gone by, teens used whatever soap was handy and then added a little sugar. The sugary lather seemed to do the trick. Blemishes apparently vanished.

Cream and Lemon Juice

Women of previous generations wanted to prevent wrinkles just as much as we do today. Unfortunately, they couldn´t go to a department store and buy an anti-aging cream.

So, if you run out of your favorite cream, you know what to do.
