Merthiolate. My cotton top sister at one point had pink/orange hair because of a cut on the top of her head. We survived all kinds of childhood disasters thanks to that stuff. We weren't allowed to play or swim in creeks or ponds thanks to polio. And Daddy wouldn't let us have snow cream (ice cream made from snow) after a certain point because of nuclear tests fallout.
If we ever wore shoes in the summer they were 10 cents a pair flip flops from Woolworths.
Omg yes peroxide or mentholateum on everything
