America" we have today? If they
could charm in chains and rags,
what couldn't we do with artistic
beauticians, skillful use of the
right cosmetics, and intelligent
choice of correctly styled clothes ?
Get "hep," sister! You're col
ored. So what? So stop being a
sueker-and play it for all it's
worth. Make your color an asset.
You can, and you know, if you ask
yourself questions like these be-
fore you spend your untainted
lucre:
1. Is the style of dress you buy
suited to your particular type?
2. Does the color bring out your
particular shade brown complexion
complement it?
8. Is the shade of powder you
buy one shade lighter than your
skin, or 4 or shades lighter?
A. Does your lipstick make your
mouth look purple?
5. Does your hat make your nose
seem even flatter?
In other words, do you realize
that even though you have to wear
clothes not designed especially for
you, you should know what lines
are suited to your figure, and which
styles are adaptable to your par
ticular type. You should never lose
sight of the fact that white cos
meticians and dermatologists do
not spend sleepless nights expert
menting to find the exact color
tints and combinations to enhance
your lovely brown skin! Why
should they?
Being of, shall we say, Ethiopian
extraction, you have a distinct
beauty form all your own. Your
features are different! Instead of
futilely attempting to disguise or
ignore them-the wise thing to do
is to emphasize, and beautify them!
The Sepia Charm Bureau Anal
ysis form below was created by
cosmeticians, beauticians, and styl-
lists who have studied your prob
lens: short hair, dark skin, fiat
noses, large mouths and all-and
know the answers!
Wouldn't you like to know what
type you are? Which colors to
wear? Where to get the proper
makeup" for your particular
complexion? What to do about
heavy lips, or too dark skin?

tell you-absolutely FREE! Send

Are you "copy-cat"-or are
you "hep"?
If you are ''hep," don't bother to
read these choice morsels o. wis
dom-but, milady, if you're "un-
hepped"- get together!
First of all, you're a woman
and slightly Tor more SOY colored!
Unless you're ''hep," you've prob
ably lost sight of that fact, and
joined forces with the millions of
other "copy-cats."
The mimicldng felines herein al
luded to, are the foolish women
who spend millions of dollars an
nually for cosmetics and clothes
which, while in the best of taste
and style, obviously were not in
tended for them. They devour
"charm" and beauty" columns in
the daily papers, never once think
ing that economic and social fac
tors enter into the ways and means
by which the male of the species
may be 'hooked" and held. They
try their darndest to be bronze
copies of Hedy LAMAR and Carole
Lombard, when each and every one
of them is a potential Cleopatra!
"Helen of Troy" golden-haired,
and with a face so fair that it
launched a thousand ships, didn't
have a thing on the sepia Cleopa-
ira, did she?
Why? Because the voluptuous
Cleopatra knew what to do with
dusky skin, dark eyes, ''too big"
nose, and black hair. (Cleo was
not born with titan tresses!) She
also knew what to wear, how to
wear it, and when to wear it. In
other words, Cleopatra studied
Cleopatra! She cultivated a per-
sonality and charm so individual
that it changed the history and
geography of the whole world!
If Cleo could make the Romans
panicky away back then when cos
metics cost fortunes and clothes
were won in wars-why should you
diminish that exotic charm which
is every Negro woman's birthright,
by hiding it beneath millions of dol
lars worth of the wrong clothes
and the wrong cosmetics?
There is charm in color! If there
weren't, our Caucasian sisters
would not blister their hides in
Summer trying to acquire a "tan."
Now, would they?
