EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and hardships of the First World War, the tireless efforts of munitionettes in factories across Europe brought vital supplies to the front lines. Yet, the long hours, harsh working conditions, and exposure to chemicals took a toll on their skin. Enter Pomeroy Skin Food, the ideal solution for soothing and nourishing the complexion of these brave women. This advertisement from 1917, published by Illustrated London News Ltd, showcases the Pomeroy Skin Food, a product specifically designed to address the unique challenges faced by munitionettes. The text assures readers that this "moisturiser for the face and hands" can "vanquish the complexion ills" caused by the rigors of munition work. The image itself is a testament to the resilience and determination of these women, as they continue their labor despite the visible signs of wear and tear on their skin. The advertisement's caption, "Pomeroy Skin Food - The Ideal Skincare for Munitionettes," underscores the importance of self-care and wellbeing, even in the most challenging of circumstances. As the war raged on, the role of women in the workforce evolved, and with it, the demand for products like Pomeroy Skin Food that catered to their specific needs. This advertisement serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these women during the First World War and the importance of taking care of oneself, even in the most trying of times.
