Camay is the name of a scented hand and body soap, originally made by Procter & Gamble (later sold to Unilever).  It was first introduced in 1926 and marketed as a "white, pure soap for women," as many soaps of the time were colored to mask impurities. Camay's slogan for many years was "Camay: the soap for beautiful women." It was later replaced with "For your most beautiful complexion at every age."
