of creaming your face we'll every day
will yield infinitely better results than
a thirty-minute orgy once week.
Use delicate shade of makeup -
applied high on your cheeks and
put it on with sparing hand in the
boldest light you can find. If makeup
is too obvious, the effect is harsh and
aging. Remember, too, that your skin
tones change as the years accumulate.
and powder needs to be as dark as
your skin Gf not darker. in order to
look natural, to soften the expression,
and to give healthy tope. Too light
a powder is very graying to the skin.
Do not hesitate to use good cream
powder-base in a warm, glowing tint,
if your skin needs color, or if there
are blemishes to conceal. When this is
used sparingly, and rubbed we'll into
the skin, your makeup will not ap-
pear too heavy. As for lipstick, try
putting it on with your little finger
and massaging it we'll into your lips
for a more subtle coloring. If your
hair is gray, lipstick with a blue
undertone is best.
Half the battle of being addressed
is to be we'll -coifed The older we grow,
the fewer struggling locks we can
afford to display. Style your hair as
smartly as your granddaughter do,
but avoid sharp corrugated waves.
When waves are soft and shadowy,
they are kinder to the face. To keep
them suavely in place between sham
poos, re-crimp them with warm marcel
irons and if ringlets unfurl, keep them
pinned up overnight. Your scalp needs
the stimulation of regular brushing.
so don't spare the bristles, if you want
lively, glossy hair.
Whether you are plump or thin.
the most important garment in your
wardrobe is your girdle, properly
fitted to your figure. Don't make the
mistake of reordering the same style
year after year. Have fitting every
time you buy a new corset to make
sure that it is fashioned to the needs
of your figure. Even if custom-ftting
is not available to you in your town. a
specialist from one of several corset
firms will call at your home, to fit
your figure for proper control as you
sit, stand and move about.
