Want to lose weight without drugs? Then use Agua Reductora.
Beauty products have always been big advertisers. Open any magazine or newspaper from the early 20th century to today and you will find ads for hair loss, skin care, perfume, soap, bust-firming treatments and many more, like this one from Spain in 1922, which challenged readers to try a product promising to banish excess fat for good.
Text in the ad
Adelgazar sin drogas, que casi siempre estropean la salud, sin aparatos complicados y costosos, sin régimen especial ni mudar nada en las costumbres, mejorando en cambio el estado de salud,
por la simple evaporación de un líquido resolutivo aplicado en lociones inofensivas, en las partes del cuerpo que se quiera hacer adelgazar.
Este maravilloso descubrimiento está causando sensación en Francia, en donde a diario se registran curaciones rapidísimas.
Además, desafío a cualquiera a que pruebe que mi Agua Reductora no hace adelgazar en ocho días y desaparecer definitivamente los mofletes, la doble barba y, en general, toda grasa superflua.
Para recibir gratuitamente, bajo sobre cerrado, la exposición del método, escríbase al Laboratorio del Agua Reductora, 98, Boulevard Rochechouart, París.
Translation:
Lose weight without drugs, which almost always ruin your health, without complicated, costly devices, without a special diet or changing your habits, and improve your health instead,
simply by the evaporation of a dissolving liquid, applied as harmless lotions to the parts of the body you want to slim.
This marvellous discovery is causing a sensation in France, where very rapid cures are recorded every day.
What’s more, I challenge anyone to prove that my Agua Reductora does not slim you in eight days and banish for good chubby cheeks, double chins and, in general, all excess fat.
To receive the method free in a sealed envelope, write to the Agua Reductora Laboratory, 98 Boulevard Rochechouart, Paris.
