Beauty
BY DONNA GRACE

One of my constant Satisfactions
is the number of letters I receive
from my young school and college
girls, asking for some helpful tips
on how to appear well groomed
on all occasions.
Even though the question seems
a simple one, in every instance the
answer is based on the individual
and her everyday routine Of
grooming.
The girl who is just becoming
beauty conscious will have ever so
many things to do. She will need
to have special attention given to
her hair, skin and hands. Really,
every feature, as well as posture
and silhouette, will all need to be
taken in hand. The process is a
rather long one, but the modern
girl is more than beauty con-
scious: She has reached the stage
where applied beauty is just as
much a part of her daily routine
as her bath is.
Some of these beauty conscious
girls write me that when they do
the quick, home facial and make
up, they do not have a really fin
ished smartneSs that they desire
so much. One young lady calls
it that expensive-looking make
up" Here are some of the things
that will give you that look"
Cover your hair with a cap or
towel. Then take a rather large
piece of cotton and soak it in cool
water or aStringent, Wiring it out
and dip it in your cold cream and
rub the face clean with it. You
may need two pads, if the face is
soiled. Now pat on your muscle
oil and after that the tissue
cream for a quick massage all
over the face and neck.
When you finish take a thin
piece of cotton large enough to
cover the face. You may separate
it in three pieces, if you find it
easier to kandle-one for the fore
head, one for the chin and neck
and the other for the eyes. Now
take a bowl and pour a glass of
cool water into it. then a table
spoon of astringent and a table
spoonful of toilet water. Soak
the sheets of cotton in it and
place them over the face.
You may secure them with q
strip of gauze, if you wish, and
place the eye pads later. But the
simplest way is TO spread a heavy
bath towel under your head and
lie down. Then rub an ice cube
over the outside of the cotton for
from three to five minutes and
over the eyes as we'll until the
skin is tingling. After the pads
are removed. apply a good cream
and put on your foundation cream
and makeup.
