IWasJshamed of My Hands EVERY time I took off my gloves in the presence of others, I became embarrassed. I imagined everyone noticed my hands. I could just hear them saying to one another, "how red her hands are." My friends who knew I played the piano quite well, often wondered why I never wanted to play in company. I frequently attended house parties where cards were played and only when there was no other way out of it would I consent to play. But what was I to do? Cooking and baking had to be donedishes must be washed — the house had to be dusted — and while I enjoyed doing housework, I dreaded the effects to my hands. The more I washed them the redder they seemed to become. I tried to use powder but it came off too quickly. I tried other remedies, but nothing helped. One day a friend told me of Derma Viva. She induced me to try a bottle. I did — and as if by magic my reddened hands became a beautiful white instantly. It was almost uncanny — just to apply a little bit of Derma Viva, and convert my coarse looking kitchen sink hands into dainty whiteness. Well, to say that I am pleased, is putting it too mildly. I am more than delighted, for that feeling of self consciousness is gone. I feel at home and at ease everywhere. Thanks to Derma Viva.
