 Providing she has Q clear. smooth. complexion, it's every womans busi- pess to learn to apply cosmetics 80 that the natural texture and glow of her skin are dramatiEed rather than concealed.
 Unless 1t Is used to conceal min or blemishes or rough spots, her foundation preparation should give the skin Q delicate, translucent tin. lsh rather than Q heavy, caked look. It ought to be smoothed on lightly and allowed to set for a mos ment or two before application of cream rouge.
 Rouge should be placed on the cheeks where natural color shows after violent exercise or gentle pinchlng. The less used the better --and rough edges must be smooth ed out to disappear completely at the hair Inc and sides of the face, Unless the skin is extremely oily, cream rouge Is likely to be most sat- isfactory.
 To achieve dull, mat finish with powder, apply 1t very gener. ously after foundation lotion and cream rouge have carefully blend- ed. Let 1t set for Q few minutes, then whisk off the excess with Q powder brush or Q piece of clean, fluffy cotton.
 CLOTHES CULORS,
 AFFECT SKIN TONE
 Powder should match exactly your natural skin tones. Rouge and llp- stick are most flattering If they match your natural blood tones or at least harmonize with the color your cheeks and lips appear to be when you are wearing any color other than black and white.
 You realize, of course, that your skin tones seem to change when you change from Q black into Q yellow dress. The ideal system iS to have several sets of makeup one to wear with your yellows, an. other with the blues, and 80 on. With so many fine, really mex. pensive brands of lipstick and rouge on the market, this isn't as eS- tyavagant as 1t sounds. Some Of the iow.priced lines are worth Mves- tigating anyway.
