The use of too much cheek rouge is one Of the

There are two major forms of the too-lberal
application of rouge. One presents rouge which
has been carelessy smeared over too large

The other is that in which the rouge pattern
may be correct enough but the application has
been made too heavily and colorfully without the

use too much makeup and this, too, can greatly
