Questions on Beauty

p the Editor Of Womdn's PAGE:
Dear Madam would appreciate
very much advice on the following
questions:
Does the constant use Of rouge harm
the skin?
Should you remove rouge from the
skin by washing or Geld cream?
Also. the constant use of powder has
made my nose look shiny and rough
when the powder rubs of Is there
any way that ! can get my skin to
regain It's natural appearance
A READER
You should stop using so much cos
metics and try to stimulate the circula-
ton Of your skin by washing II every
night with warm water and a good
quality of facial soap, and then rub
the skin vigorously with small cake
of Ice. This will give you good color.
Apply only just enough powder to take
the shine of your nose. little rouge
used very sparingly will not be so
harmful as lot, II It Is carefully re-
moved at night with cold cream.
