BUI. The best preparation for removing ail kinds of theatrical make-up. Easily applied and easily removed. Albolene removes make-up quickly and easily, because it is free from water and all sticky material. It thus cuts the grease paint in- stantly and no prolonged application is neces- sary. It is a make-up vanisher. A little rubbed over the skin before applying the make-up -will prevent make-up poisoning. Albolene is also an excellent toilet article for general pur- poses and many artists use it in their homes as well as in their dressing rooms. Albolene positively will not grow hair.
