Strange Skin Care

Episode #60:  Strange Skin Care

Hello, this is BLT Eigo, brought to you by BLTnetwork.com. I’m your host and English Coach, David Hylton.

Last time I told you about a list of some pretty funny remedies my Mom had sent me. Did any of you try those interesting hair-care ideas I gave you?  I thought about the beer conditioner, but it was such a hot day and the beer was nice and cold…well you understand.  This episode, I’ll give you a few skin-care ideas to try…at your own risk of course.  OK, are you ready? Here we go….

Number 5:  Paint your face with white wood glue and let it dry.  Peel off the dead skin and pimples, nikibi, with the glue. (Ouch, sounds kind of painful, but if it works…. Don’t try super glue, OK?)

Number 7:  Treat minor burns, yakedo, with Colgate or Crest toothpaste.  (At least you’ll have white, shiny skin, huh?)

Number 10:  Fight athlete’s foot, or mizumushi, with cornstarch.

Number 17:  Kill toenail and fingernail fungus, or  tsumeno kabi, with Vick’s vapor rub.

Good job!  Let me know if you try these remedies and…also if they really work.

Thanks for joining this episode of BLT Eigo.  See you next time right here on BLTnetwork.com.  Bye.
