To make her face oval, the girl or
woman who has dropping lids must cor
rect these deficiencies, remembering
that the long, wide-open eye is the ideal
of beauty.
In the grooming of the head a great
field is offered for care. The woman who
gets up in the morning and combs her
hair. washes her face with water and
nuts on an attractive collar. may have
done her duty by her family, but she
has not done her duty by herself
The professional beauty, when she
rises, takes a perfumed bath. she
treats her face and neck, her arms and
her hands to a good complexion cream.
She may. if she be so inclined, dust
very little powder over them.
In London they dust the complexion
with powdered oatmeal in the morning,
taking it off with chamois. This re-
moves the shine.
At night there comes the face powder,
and perhaps the touch of rouge, accord
ing to scruples, but in the morning the
face is treated to only suggestion OF
powder, just enough to keep OF the Of
