PREPARED AND SOLD BY
ALFRED BURY, PERFUMER, Exeter Change, London.
BURY’S HAIR WASH,
For cleansing, strengthening, and promoting the growth of hair, possessing valuable astringent properties which act on the pores of the skin, and also remove the dandriff.
Alfred Bury, can with truth aver his Hair Wash contains wonderful attributes for preserving the hair in hot and cold climates; as adding strength, affording nourishment, exciting to a luxuriant growth and brilliantly ornamenting and embellishing the human hair, it has not its parallel in the world. The distinguished sanction it has received from royal and illustrious personages, and the flattering testimonials of its efficacy, constantly received, piece this declaration above suspicion. Sold in Bottles, 2s.6d., 3s.6., and 6s.each.
BURY’S ROYAL POMPADOUR POWDER,
For daily use to remove that redness and irritation remaining on the skin after washing, or from any other cause, as well as possessing the most cooling, softening, and balsamic qualities, and imparting an exquisite clearness to the complexion.
It is strongly recommended to the notice of Mothers and Nurses, for the use of Infants of the most tender age, being far superior to any other powder; also after sea-bathing, and for Gentlemen after shaving, its agreeable effects will be fully tested.
Alfred Bury strongly recommends the Royal Pompadour Powder as an article of comfort and utility (not as a cosmetic), but as a plain vegetable powder for the use both of Ladies and Gentlemen; retaining its virtues and purity in any climate, consequently is well worthy the attention of Merchants, Captains and Speculators, being a preparation that commands an extensive sale throughout the civilized world. Sold in Packets, 1s., and 2s.6d., each;—those at 2s. 6d., are equal to three 1s. packets; by post for 16 or 38 uncut stamps.
BURY’S TROPHELÉON, OR NUTRITIVE BALM;
For promoting the growth of hair, causing it to grow in a state of great luxuriance, presenting its falling, and sustaining it in curl under the different varieties of atmosphere.
Bury’s Tropheléon possesses essential properties for nourishing the hair, makes it soft and smooth, prevents its breaking, excites the growth, and try penetrating into the roots, thickens it in a very short time. It is also most efficacious for restoring the growth of hair, after it has fallen off from illness. To the beneficial qualifies, and brilliancy it imparts to the hair, is added the most reviving and agreeable perfume. Sold in pots and Bottles, 1s., 1s. 6d., 2s. 6d., 3s. 6d., 5s., 10s., and 20s. each;—there is a considerable saving in purchasing the larger sizes.
BURY’S BLOOM OF ROSES,
The only preparation that will brighten the complexion, giving permanent and immediate beauty to the cheek without injury to the skin.
Bury’s Bloom of Roses supersedes Rough, Carmine, Vermilion, &c., all of which are more or less prejudicial to the skin.
This liquid being the true colour of the rose, and in appliance as harmless and innocent as water, will be found extremely useful for colouring the lips. 1s.6d.per Bottle; by Post, for twenty-four Stamps, uncut
BURY’S LAVENDER WATER,
The most refreshing and agreeable perfume yet discovered; possessing the pure aroma of the flowers, extreme durability, and improving fragrance, without any of the evanescent qualities familiar to essences of delicate structure; indeed, so durable is it, that it may be applied to the handkerchief the day previous to use.
Alfred Bury respectfully recommends his Lavender Water to Ladies, to whom the atmosphere of the Ball Room or Assembly proves overpowering and prejudicial. The nervous head-ache, produced by fatigue or over excitement, can hardly find relief in the stimulating essences administered in each cases, for as the eye, fatigued by the glare of colours, seeks repose in darkness, or by turning to refreshing green, on the sense of smelling, distracted by artificial compounds, however delightful and fragrant in themselves, is soothed and gratified by some simple and uniform odours—the flower of the arbour, the garden, or the meadow.
Alfred Bury especially recommends this his truly English Perfume to Ladies, who, although not in the habit of using perfumes, are by no means averse to a perennial nosegay of delicate fragrancy.
Sold in Bottles, 2s. 6d., 3s. 6d., and 5s. each.
BURY’S QUININE TOOTH POWDER,
It is now used by all the principal families in the United Kingdom. It is pleasant to the taste, and does not contain the least particle of acid, an astringent, a most excellent stomachic, renders the breath fragrant, purifying it from the least odour (a valuable acquisition to Gentlemen after smoking), and its beneficial effects upon on the teeth are as speedy as lasting.
Alfred Bury has submitted his Tooth Powder to several of the most talented Dentists of the day, who, after many trials, admit its essential virtues. The following is the opinion of an eminent Surgeon-Dentist:—“Bury’s Quinine Tooth Powder will undoubtedly preserve the teeth from decay, the gums from any kind of disorder, and completely keep down the formation of tartar.”
Alfred Bury particularly requests attention to the above, and wishes it to be distinctly understood, that it is not his statement, never having written, printed, or said anything of the kind, but the quoted paragraph is the undoubted opinion of the first Surgeon-Dentist in the whole world. Bury’s Quinine Tooth Power is sold in Boxes of improved form, at 1s. 6d. each; by Post, tor twenty-four Stamps, uncut.
BURY’S HAIR DYE.
The merits of this preparation are: it is certain in its effects upon the hair, dyeing it by a very simple process to an unchangeable black, brown, or light brown colour, so strongly fixed, that no known chemical agent can remove it, and is the only dye which does not stain, burn, or darken the skin or linen. Alfred Bury warrants his dye to be infallible, and will return the money if not found to fully realise the above. Prices, 3s. 6d., 5s., and 10s.
EAU DE COLOGNE.
Alfred Bury, importing Eau de Cologne from the best maker, Jean Maria Farina, Place Julièrs, a Cologne, guarantes all sold by him as the genuine.
In no one article is the British public more deceived than in Eau de Cologne;—all the cheap preparations tended under that name are an amalgamation of coarse malt spirit “perfumed” (or rather poisoned) with hot essential oils, and taken inwardly prove highly injurious. The lowest price Eau de Cologne of the first quality can possibly be sold at is 2s. 6d. per Bottle.

for the skin and Complexion. An Oriental botanical preparation, perfectly free from all mineral or metallic admixture. By its action the pores and minute secretory vessels it expels all impurities from the surface, allays every tendency to inflammation, and thus effectually dissipates all redness, tan, pimples, spots, freckles, discolourations, and other cutaneous visitations.

Gentlemen after shaving will find it allay all irritation and tenderness of the skin, and render it soft, smooth, and pleasant.—Price 4s. 6d. and 8s. 6d. per Bottle.
ROWLANDS’ ODONTO,OR PEARL DENTIFRICE.
A white powder, compounded of the choicest and mostrechercheingredients of the Oriental herbal, of inestimable value in preserving and beautifying the teeth, strengthening the gums, and in rendering the breath sweet and pure. It extirpates all tartareous adhesions to the teeth, and insures a pearl-like whiteness to the enamelled surface.—Price 2s. 9d. per box.

This is the most fragrant and refreshing perfume ever yielded by the “souls of flowers.” It retains its fresh and delightful odorousness for days. It is invigorating, gently stimulating, yet sedative; and is an unrivalled quintessential spirituous product. For fainting fits, fatigues of dancing, oppression from over-crowded rooms, or intense summer heat, its use cannot be over-estimated.—Price 3s. 6d. per bottle.
ROWLANDS’ EUPLYSIA.

IMPORTANT CAUTION.
Unprincipled Shopkeepers, for the sake of gaining a trifle more profit, vend the most spurious compounds under the same names. It is, therefore, highly necessary to see that the word “ROWLANDS” precedes the name of the article on the Wrapper or Label of each.
