Beautiful Hands Vintage Style

I was looking at my May 1942 Good Housekeeping Magazine this morning and found some more ads for hand care soaps and creams.  Even in the 1940s women used their hands for washing clothes and dishes a lot more than we do today.  Taking care of your hands was a big thing – as was looking pretty for your man.  These ads are all from the one issue.

The magazine also has lots of ads for deodorant and make up, and some lovely articles, which I’ll post another time. And there are lots more images on tumblr.

Stay beautiful!
