have substitute that you can lisa in
your own home. Do something more
than merely cleansing the face ana
putting on new makeup over a skin
that has no glow and sparkle. No one
likes a tired-looking guest.
| EOR a quick pickup, before tho
theater or dinner engagement,
Try an herbal masque that may be
used on the most sensitive skin with
out the slightest drying effect. Ap-
piled quickly, removed with warm
water and followed by a few minutes
massage, this masque will properly
prepare your skin for flattering
makeup.
Or more complete job can be
done with treatment that includes a
specially treated woven pink silk face
masqae designed to hold the muscles
and contour in correct position.
Dipped in a purifying lotion. the
masque is fitted to face and throat
An adjustable nose-piece is provided
TO smooth out eye-lines. Left on
from half hour to an hour, sagging
and unruly contours and droopinQ
chins are drawn upward and YOUTH
ward; expression lines are smoothed
out The masque may be used over
and over again and may be worn at
any time during the day.
Another. nasque is a thin, trans
parent affair that is applied to the
face after the finger wave and Just
before you duck your head under the
dryer. This masque does two things.
IL protects the skin from the heat
OF the dryer and at the same time
gives it splendid pickup, SO that
when the hair is dry and the masque
removed you leave the shop in the
pink OF perfection, which is not
always the case after session with
the hairdresser. It's pretty clever.
WE HEAR lot about corrective"
treatments these days, and the
latest one to be brought to our at
tention is one that starts with an
all-purpose cleansing cream which
prepares the face for the big miracle
that happens when a transparent
reddish fluid Is applied all over the
face and neck with a brush. This
whips up the circulation in no un-
certain way, making the skin sting
and smart, but only for few minutes.
This skin excitement is induced as
the real skin below the outer surface
is being awakened. The chemical in
this fiery lotion coming in contact
with the acid of the skin causes the
stinging sensation as it works on
the sebaceous glands and makes them
function more effectively than they
do in any but the skin Of q very
young person.
In this way the accelerated blood ac-
ton makes the natural oils flow more
freely through the pores. taking along
with them any distractions such as
blackheads and whiteheads. After
about 20 minutes this lotion, which
has become dry film. is washed of
with clear cold water, leaving the face
beautifully clean and very soft. Con-
tinued use of this treatment is said
to clear up obstinate cases of acne i'll
a few weeks time.
TIP to the wise! There's a special
double-quantity sale going on this
week in local shop. 1t has to do with
blended herbal oils in specially fine
creams, one for the throat and neck,
the other an outstanding treatment for
dry skin, to be used on the face. This
week these two night creams are avail

And don't forget to see that most in
teresting historical pageant of per-
fume that is occupying so much space
and attracting so much attention this
week in local store. Fresh from its

reer began, this exhibit shows hun
