Great care should be given the neck.
1t is easier to protect the neck from
cold, the sun and dust, than the face.
Ribbons and furs worn around the
neck should be carefully selected as
they often contain substances dele
terious to the skin.
If you can stand it always leave the
neck uncovered. Everything that re-
tricts or tightens it tends TO make the
face red.
Frequently massage your neck
The process for the neck is the same
as that for other parts of the body.
Always use a certain g~entleness. The
| different procedures are: Gently strok-
ing. pressing, %kneading. patting. beat
ing. pinching and shaking the skin.
Exercise your neck. Do this by
bending the head every night and
morning ten times to the right and
ten times 30 the left. Also bend the
head backwards and forward the
same number of times. This will i'm
prove the blood circulation and the
color of the skin, give fullness if the
neck is thin and reduce an excess of
fat il there be any.
