A Summer makeup that we have
not as yet mentioned is one that we
have been trying out and found to
be all that is claimed for it. 1t con-
sists of creme rouge in shade called
tan, which Is an excellent coppery,
brownish-red for the sun-tanned skin,
and Is matched with a similar lip
stick. Both of these items come in
pleasing ivory-toned cases. For the
best effect it is suggested that a
special olive protective cream be
spread over the face first, and If q
| swimming suit or shorts are being
worn, matching finishing lotion
should be applied to arms and legs
Peach shade face powder is then
applied over the protective cream to
give the skin a beautiful natural
golden glow which is much more at
tractive than the yellow or orange
tint which is often too evident in sun
"a
makeup is desired No. brunette may
be substituted for the peach shade.
This color is often very flattering to
