BEWARE. Of CLoGGiNG PORES
carelessness in Washing or. Too Law.
lsh Use of Paints or Powders
Most frequently to Blame.

The clogging of pores is less often
due to natural conditions than to mis-
management Tha girl who habitual-
~ and lavishly paints or powders Will
before long find herself with the I'M
slightly enlarged pores that ruin the
best complexion.
If YOU must use cosmetics, use them
with Judgment. Never powder direct.
" after washing the face, especial!
If hot water or steaming has been EN-.
ployed. The skin is relaxed, the pores
open, and the powder clogs.
After washing the face use an as
tringent lotion or dash the face with
cold water. This is one OF the best
pore closers known and tones up the
skin. After the cold spray there is
far less harm from powdering. though
1t should not be put on thickly anG
only good powder should be used.
Some powders have a greasy quail
ity that makes them especially prone
to clog. Pure talcum is good choice
Do not let it stay on too long, espe
ciallv when one is overheatcd. The
constant use Of powder to prevent
shine in summer is one reason fol
bad skins and enlarged pores in the
fall.
Never tamper with astringent 10
tons without advice from a skin spe
cialist. If your skin is fine or sensi
tive it can be quickly ruined by prep
arations that agree admirably viii
others. The constant use of benZoin
so often advised. is harmful to man;
skins. Even more SO is the practice
of dashing the face with vinegar 0!
pure alcohol.
